android get all contacts

Question

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

Answer 1

I am using this method, and it is working perfectly. It gets fav, picture, name, number etc. (All the details of the contact). And also it is not repetitive.

List

private static List<FavContact> contactList = new ArrayList<>();

Method to get contacts

@SuppressLint("Range")

    };
    String sort = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME_PRIMARY + " ASC";
    Cursor phones = contentResolver
            .query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI
                    , fieldListProjection, null, null, sort);
    HashSet<String> normalizedNumbersAlreadyFound = new HashSet<>();

    if (phones != null && phones.getCount() > 0) {
        while (phones.moveToNext()) {
            String normalizedNumber = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME));

            if (Integer.parseInt(phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(

                if (normalizedNumbersAlreadyFound.add(normalizedNumber)) {

                    int id = phones.getInt(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID));
                    String name = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME));
                    String phoneNumber = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
                    int fav = phones.getInt(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.STARRED));
                    boolean isFav;
                    isFav= fav == 1;

                    String uri = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.PHOTO_URI));
                    if(uri!=null){
                        contactList.add(new FavContact(id,isFav,uri,name,phoneNumber));
                    }
                    else{

Get all contacts in less than a second and without any load in your activity. Follow my steps works like a charm.

ArrayList<Contact> contactList = new ArrayList<>();

private static final String[] PROJECTION = new String[]{
        ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID,
        ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME,
        ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER
};

private void getContactList() {
    ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver();

    Cursor cursor = cr.query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, PROJECTION, null, null, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME + " ASC");
    if (cursor != null) {
        HashSet<String> mobileNoSet = new HashSet<String>();
        try {
            final int nameIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME);
            final int numberIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER);

            String name, number;
            while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
                name = cursor.getString(nameIndex);
                number = cursor.getString(numberIndex);
                number = number.replace(" ", "");
                if (!mobileNoSet.contains(number)) {
                    contactList.add(new Contact(name, number));
                    mobileNoSet.add(number);
                    Log.d("hvy", "onCreaterrView  Phone Number: name = " + name
                            + " No = " + number);
                }
            }
        } finally {
            cursor.close();
        }
    }
}

Contacts

public class Contact {
public String name;
public String phoneNumber;

public Contact() {
}

public Contact(String name, String phoneNumber ) {
    this.name = name;
    this.phoneNumber = phoneNumber;
}

public String getName() {
    return name;
}

public void setName(String name) {
    this.name = name;
}

public String getPhoneNumber() {
    return phoneNumber;
}

public void setPhoneNumber(String phoneNumber) {
    this.phoneNumber = phoneNumber;
}

}

Benefits

• less than a second
• without load
• ascending order
• without duplicate contacts

Answer 4

Improving on the answer of @Adiii - It Will Cleanup The Phone Number and Remove All Duplicates

Declare a Global Variable

// Hash Maps
Map<String, String> namePhoneMap = new HashMap<String, String>();

Then Use The Function Below

private void getPhoneNumbers() {

        Cursor phones = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);

        // Loop Through All The Numbers
        while (phones.moveToNext()) {

            String name = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME));
            String phoneNumber = phones.getString(phones.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));

            // Cleanup the phone number
            phoneNumber = phoneNumber.replaceAll("[()\\s-]+", "");

            // Enter Into Hash Map
            namePhoneMap.put(phoneNumber, name);

        }

        // Get The Contents of Hash Map in Log
        for (Map.Entry<String, String> entry : namePhoneMap.entrySet()) {
            String key = entry.getKey();
            Log.d(TAG, "Phone :" + key);
            String value = entry.getValue();
            Log.d(TAG, "Name :" + value);
        }

        phones.close();

    }

Remember in the above example the key is phone number and value is a name so read your contents like 998xxxxx282->Mahatma Gandhi instead of Mahatma Gandhi->998xxxxx282

This is the Method to get contact list Name and Number

 private void getAllContacts() {
    ContentResolver contentResolver = getContentResolver();
    Cursor cursor = contentResolver.query(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME + " ASC");
    if (cursor.getCount() > 0) {
        while (cursor.moveToNext()) {

            int hasPhoneNumber = Integer.parseInt(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER)));
            if (hasPhoneNumber > 0) {
                String id = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts._ID));
                String name = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME));
                Cursor phoneCursor = contentResolver.query(
                        ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI,
                        null,
                        ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID + " = ?", new String[]{id},
                        null);
                if (phoneCursor != null) {
                    if (phoneCursor.moveToNext()) {
                        String phoneNumber = phoneCursor.getString(phoneCursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));

   //At here You can add phoneNUmber and Name to you listView ,ModelClass,Recyclerview
                        phoneCursor.close();
                    }


                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Answer 7

Cursor contacts = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
String aNameFromContacts[] = new String[contacts.getCount()];  
String aNumberFromContacts[] = new String[contacts.getCount()];  
int i = 0;

int nameFieldColumnIndex = contacts.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME);
int numberFieldColumnIndex = contacts.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER);

while(contacts.moveToNext()) {

    String contactName = contacts.getString(nameFieldColumnIndex);
    aNameFromContacts[i] =    contactName ; 

    String number = contacts.getString(numberFieldColumnIndex);
    aNumberFromContacts[i] =    number ;
i++;
}

contacts.close();

The result will be aNameFromContacts array full of contacts. Also ensure that you have added

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS" />

in main.xml

Answer 8

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;
    }

Answer 9

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();
    }
}
