I guess the question what is it that you want to do when you get back this contact data. I presume you want to save it? Well you will launch the contact picker activity with a specific intent result, which in onActivityResult tells you you want to save that value. So you can find the preference that launched the intent and call setTitle() and / or setSummary() to update what it displays and call getSharedPreferences() on it to save the data you got back to the SharedPreferences object for later. > Perhaps that is not possible?

You could, but I really don't think you do. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TreKing <http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking> - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
