Hi,
The following worked for me
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK,
Uri.parse("content://contacts/people"));
startActivityForResult(i, CONTACTS_PICK_REQ);
in my onActivityResult, I extract the picked URI like below:
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
Intent intent) {
Uri pickedContact;
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, intent);
if ((requestCode == CONTACTS_PICK_REQ) && (resultCode == RESULT_OK)) {
pickedContact = intent.getData();
}
}
However this didn't quite solve the problem for me. What I want is to
let user pick a contact *and* then select one of the home/mobile/work
numbers. I am not sure how to proceed from this point onwards where I
have URI for contact. Is there a way to let user first pick a contact
in one screen and then display all his numbers in another screen and
let user pick one of those numbers ?
Thanks,
Sarath
