android get all contacts

How can I get all the names of the contacts in my Android and put them into array of strings?

Solution 1:

Try this too,

private void getContactList() {
    ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver();
    Cursor cur = cr.query(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI,
            null, null, null, null);

    if ((cur != null ? cur.getCount() : 0) > 0) {
        while (cur != null && cur.moveToNext()) {
            String id = cur.getString(
                    cur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts._ID));
            String name = cur.getString(cur.getColumnIndex(
                    ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME));

            if (cur.getInt(cur.getColumnIndex(
                    ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER)) > 0) {
                Cursor pCur = cr.query(
                        ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI,
                        null,
                        ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID + " = ?",
                        new String[]{id}, null);
                while (pCur.moveToNext()) {
                    String phoneNo = pCur.getString(pCur.getColumnIndex(
                            ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
                    Log.i(TAG, "Name: " + name);
                    Log.i(TAG, "Phone Number: " + phoneNo);
                }
                pCur.close();
            }
        }
    }
    if(cur!=null){
        cur.close();
    }
}

Solution 2:

Get contacts info , photo contacts , photo uri and convert to Class model

1). Sample for Class model :

    public class ContactModel {
        public String id;
        public String name;
        public String mobileNumber;
        public Bitmap photo;
        public Uri photoURI;
    }

2). get Contacts and convert to Model

     public List<ContactModel> getContacts(Context ctx) {
        List<ContactModel> list = new ArrayList<>();
        ContentResolver contentResolver = ctx.getContentResolver();
        Cursor cursor = contentResolver.query(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
        if (cursor.getCount() > 0) {
            while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
                String id = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts._ID));
                if (cursor.getInt(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER)) > 0) {
                    Cursor cursorInfo = contentResolver.query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null,
                            ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID + " = ?", new String[]{id}, null);
                    InputStream inputStream = ContactsContract.Contacts.openContactPhotoInputStream(ctx.getContentResolver(),
                            ContentUris.withAppendedId(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, new Long(id)));

                    Uri person = ContentUris.withAppendedId(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, new Long(id));
                    Uri pURI = Uri.withAppendedPath(person, ContactsContract.Contacts.Photo.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);

                    Bitmap photo = null;
                    if (inputStream != null) {
                        photo = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(inputStream);
                    }
                    while (cursorInfo.moveToNext()) {
                        ContactModel info = new ContactModel();
                        info.id = id;
                        info.name = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME));
                        info.mobileNumber = cursorInfo.getString(cursorInfo.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
                        info.photo = photo;
                        info.photoURI= pURI;
                        list.add(info);
                    }

                    cursorInfo.close();
                }
            }
            cursor.close();
        }
        return list;
    }

Solution 3:

public class MyActivity extends Activity 
                        implements LoaderManager.LoaderCallbacks<Cursor> {

    private static final int CONTACTS_LOADER_ID = 1;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        // Prepare the loader.  Either re-connect with an existing one,
        // or start a new one.
        getLoaderManager().initLoader(CONTACTS_LOADER_ID,
                                      null,
                                      this);
    }

    @Override
    public Loader<Cursor> onCreateLoader(int id, Bundle args) {
        // This is called when a new Loader needs to be created.

        if (id == CONTACTS_LOADER_ID) {
            return contactsLoader();
        }
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public void onLoadFinished(Loader<Cursor> loader, Cursor cursor) {
        //The framework will take care of closing the
        // old cursor once we return.
        List<String> contacts = contactsFromCursor(cursor);
    }

    @Override
    public void onLoaderReset(Loader<Cursor> loader) {
        // This is called when the last Cursor provided to onLoadFinished()
        // above is about to be closed.  We need to make sure we are no
        // longer using it.
    }

    private  Loader<Cursor> contactsLoader() {
        Uri contactsUri = ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI; // The content URI of the phone contacts

        String[] projection = {                                  // The columns to return for each row
                ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME
        } ;

        String selection = null;                                 //Selection criteria
        String[] selectionArgs = {};                             //Selection criteria
        String sortOrder = null;                                 //The sort order for the returned rows

        return new CursorLoader(
                getApplicationContext(),
                contactsUri,
                projection,
                selection,
                selectionArgs,
                sortOrder);
    }

    private List<String> contactsFromCursor(Cursor cursor) {
        List<String> contacts = new ArrayList<String>();

        if (cursor.getCount() > 0) {
            cursor.moveToFirst();

            do {
                String name = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME));
                contacts.add(name);
            } while (cursor.moveToNext());
        }

        return contacts;
    }
