[android-developers] search box for contacts
Hi, I am trying a implement a search box for list of contacts(using list view with check boxes) that my app uses. For example: When I type letter A it should display all the contacts with that letter and let me select multiple of them. What kind of widget should I go for? Is EditText way to go and listen to keypress? Any pointers are appreciated. Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] search box for contacts
Thanks. I wasn't clear what I trying to do. I have already implemented the app that list contacts with phone number with check boxes next to it. But if there are too many contacts hard to scroll through them and find what you are looking for. So I want to implement a dynamic search which would narrow down the list after a letter typed. Something like the Iphone contact list. Is SearchView the answer?

[android-developers] Groups and Contacts number.
Hi,
I was wondering if there is a way to get a group name and all the contacts -
name and number in that group. I figured out below how to loop through the
groups but I have been unable to tie this to contact names and number.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
*final* String[] GROUP_PROJECTION = *new* String[] {
ContactsContract.Groups.*_ID*, ContactsContract.Groups.*TITLE* };
Cursor groupCursor = managedQuery(ContactsContract.Groups.*CONTENT_URI*,
GROUP_PROJECTION, *null*, *null*, ContactsContract.Groups.*TITLE* + ASC);
*if*(groupCursor.moveToFirst()) {
*final* *int* groupIDColumnIndex =
groupCursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Groups.*_ID*);
*final* *int* groupTitleColumnIndex =
groupCursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Groups.*TITLE*);
*while*(!groupCursor.isAfterLast()) {
String *groupID* = groupCursor.getString(groupIDColumnIndex);
*final* String *name* = groupCursor.getString(groupTitleColumnIndex);
}
groupCursor.close();
