Yes that seemed to work:
I found out the actual classname by looking at the debugger and
knowing the classname for that activity
so
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setComponent(new ComponentName(
"com.android.contacts"
,"com.android.contacts.DialtactsContactsEntryActivity");
intent.setFlags(....)
startActivity(intent)
However I don't think this is the right way to do it.
what is puzzling is how come the contacts application hasn't
registered as an activity for
ACTION_VIEW
content://contacts/
May be I got the uri wrong!
Any one!!
Thanks
