So I am trying to use new contacts API to query for contacts that has
phone number.
resolver.query(
ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI,
new String[]{ContactsContract.Contacts._ID,
ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME,
ContactsContract.Contacts.LOOKUP_KEY},
ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER +" = 1",
null,
ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME+" ASC");
This works fine. However if I query for a phone number based on
phoneLookup key:
resolver.query(
PhoneLookup.CONTENT_FILTER_URI,
new String[]{PhoneLookup.NUMBER}, // projection
PhoneLookup.LOOKUP_KEY+"=?", // selection
new String[]{lookupKey}, // selection args
null);
I get java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown URL
content://com.android.contacts/phone_lookup
This seems to be related to this issue
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4446
I am not sure though if contact's phone number should be accessed this
way.
It is good if you change API to make it more featureful though having
a documentation with a working example for this use case would be
really helpful.
Best,
Lukasz
