Search contact by phone number
If you want the complete code:
public String getContactDisplayNameByNumber(String number) {
Uri uri = Uri.withAppendedPath(ContactsContract.PhoneLookup.CONTENT_FILTER_URI, Uri.encode(number));
String name = "?";
ContentResolver contentResolver = getContentResolver();
Cursor contactLookup = contentResolver.query(uri, new String[] {BaseColumns._ID,
ContactsContract.PhoneLookup.DISPLAY_NAME }, null, null, null);
try {
if (contactLookup != null && contactLookup.getCount() > 0) {
contactLookup.moveToNext();
name = contactLookup.getString(contactLookup.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Data.DISPLAY_NAME));
//String contactId = contactLookup.getString(contactLookup.getColumnIndex(BaseColumns._ID));
}
} finally {
if (contactLookup != null) {
contactLookup.close();
}
}
return name;
}
You should have a look at the recommended ContactsContract.PhoneLookup provider
A table that represents the result of looking up a phone number, for example for caller ID. To perform a lookup you must append the number you want to find to CONTENT_FILTER_URI. This query is highly optimized.
Uri uri = Uri.withAppendedPath(PhoneLookup.CONTENT_FILTER_URI, Uri.encode(phoneNumber));
resolver.query(uri, new String[]{PhoneLookup.DISPLAY_NAME,...
