Well now I just feel stupid since that's pretty out in the open. One
last question: how exactly do you go about requesting a sync (let's
say after they change some custom options for the account)? I've
tried requestSync but it never really seems to kick off the sync
unless I'm not waiting long
I figured this out. I was passing in the wrong value for the
authority.

Hey Dmitri,
If I want my contacts to show up by default when I go into the
contacts application and not have to go into Display Options to turn
them on, where would I go to tweak that setting?

Take a look at Settings.UNGROUPED_VISIBLE If you set this to 1 for your
account, all contacts will be visible by default.

I have been working with contacts. I am able to show them, update but
when I want to delete any, it is not deleted completely. In Contacts

You are deleting data associated with the contact, not the contact itself.
It should be something like this:
ArrayListContentProviderOperation ops = new
ArrayListContentProviderOperation();
ops.add(ContentProviderOperation.newDelete(Contacts.CONTENT_URI)

That's right. DATA1 is used for the most important data element by
convention.
Email has an unfortunate alias DATA for DATA1. In 2.1 we will also have
Email.ADDRESS mapping to DATA1.
The DATA1 column is indexed, so doing searches on that column in combination
with a MIMETYPE constraint will be
Hi all,
thanks for your posts, that got me started and going on the new sdk
2.0, but still facing some problems adding contacts.
let's say i have an array of String has the contacts info
String[] c = new String[] {First name,Last name,mobile number,
home number, work number, fax number, email
Jesus, is there any intent by Google to document Contacts usage???
This is a basic subject that has become very complicated and should be
documented in the Developers's Guide on top of the obtuse API docs...

So, if I want to sync with my own backend which supports a different

Dmitri - could I ask you another question ?
We are setting custom ringtones for contacts:
Uri contactUri; // eg: content://com.android.contacts/contacts/12
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(ContactsContract.Contacts.CUSTOM_RINGTONE,
newRingtoneUri.toString());
The way you are setting ringtones looks right. Setting them on the
aggregate contact is the right way to go. Can you see any pattern? Is
there anything in common between the contacts that don't take the ringtone?
Can you set the ringtone on those using the standard Contacts app?
Thank you

Dmitri - thanks.
Our users are generally lovely people, but it is hard to get enough
detail from them to know what the pattern might be. It might even be
them making mistakes in their contact data. I shall keep digging!

Is there any plan that you are aware of that google would publish

Right.
Setting the new photo to super-primary should take care of the PHOTO_ID

Thanks for introducing the database structure and the sample on how to

I'd like to know how to manage Contacts, RawContacts, and Data

Any better way to delete a contact with specific name from database?

Thank you Dmitri,
Your response was very helpful. Along with that, and the sample you
posted on another thread about using both Contact Apis from one app,
I've gotten most of the way there. It is much appreciated.
I'm still however having some problems that I'm hard pressed to find a
solution
Hi Jake,
The database structure is actually extremely straightforward:
Contacts represents an aggregated contact
RawContacts represents a contact as it was inserted by the sync adapter.
RawContact has a CONTACT_ID field that binds it to a Contact.
Data represents everything about a RawContact:
