Contact picker, get phone number

I've been googl'ed around alot to find out how I can get the phone number when the user choose a contact in the contact picker. I know how to open the contact picker. But not how to get the phone number.

I've tried these examples:

http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/android/android-essentials-using-the-contact-picker/
http://www.enkeladress.com/article.php/android_snippen_show_contact_picker

And alot of stackoverflow threads, but the Phone class seem's to be deprecated. So, how can I do it?

Thanks in advance!

(Really sorry for bad english! Hope you understand!)

This worked for me.

Uri contactData = data.getData();
Cursor c =  main.managedQuery(contactData, null, null, null, null);
if (c.moveToFirst()) {
    String contactId = c.getString(c.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts._ID));
}

Cursor c1 = mcontext.getContentResolver().query(Data.CONTENT_URI,
    new String[] {Data._ID, Phone.NUMBER, Phone.TYPE, Phone.LABEL},
    Data.CONTACT_ID + "=?" + " AND "
    + Data.MIMETYPE + "='" + Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE + "'",
    new String[] {String.valueOf(contactId)}, null);
c1.moveToFirst();
String number = c1.getString(1);

I got the query from the google documentation. You get string at position one because that's the position in the query above.
