The code looks fine to me (except for the cursor leak). When you say "but not on 2.0", what exactly do you mean? Does it not return any data or throw an exception or what?
BTW, compatibility API will only give you access to the very first Google account you add on the phone, so make sure the phone number you are looking for is in that original account. For the sake of testing, you might want to use a phone with a single account. Also, if you are running this on the emulator, make sure you have the latest version of the SDK (2.0.1).
