Android telephone directory

Question

Is there any open source telephone directory application for Android or how can I make one myself?

Answer 1

Hi, you can use the directory of the device. With this class you can retrieve the contacts of the telephone :

public class Repository extends Activity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    private static final int PICK_CONTACT = 0;
    Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, People.CONTENT_URI);

    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.Repo);

        startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);  

    }
}

Don't forget to add a permission in the Manifest :

uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS"

I hope this will help you.
