How insert the contact info on the existing contact in Android 1.6?
I have name, phone number and E-mail infomation of a contact. I just want to insert the additional开发者_运维知识库 email and phone for the existing contact. My questions are
- How to find the contact is already existing or not?
- How to insert the values on the additional or secondary address option?
Thanks in Advance.
In the official document has new contancts api.
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/ContactsContract.Data.html
First, look up raw contacts id with your criteria, such as name:
final String name = "reader";
// find "reader"'s contact
String select = String.format("%s=? AND %s='%s'",
Data.DISPLAY_NAME, Data.MIMETYPE, Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
String[] project = new String[] { Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID };
Cursor c = getContentResolver().query(
Data.CONTENT_URI, project, select, new String[] { name }, null);
long rawContactId = -1;
if(c.moveToFirst()){
rawContactId = c.getLong(c.getColumnIndex(Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID));
}
c.close();
Second, use rawContactId to add an entry to contacts:
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID, rawContactId);
values.put(Data.MIMETYPE, Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);
values.put(Phone.NUMBER, "1-800-GOOG-411");
values.put(Phone.TYPE, Phone.TYPE_CUSTOM);
values.put(Phone.LABEL, "free directory assistance");
Uri dataUri = getContentResolver().insert(Data.CONTENT_URI, values);
PS. don't forget the permissions:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS"></uses-permission>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS"></uses-permission>
