For some reasons, this API will get an empty one if the device didn't have the SIM number storing support. If so, we have to ask the user to input the number by hand.

TelephonyManager telephonyManager = (TelephonyManager) getActivity().getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
String phone = telephonyManager.getLine1Number();
if (phone != null && phone.isEmpty()) {
    // TODO: ask the user to input his/her telephone number
}

Please check AndroidManifest.xml whether you have declare following permission or not.

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

If not then add it after that change your mAppContext to getActivity() to run your code.

it gives you all contacts:

Cursor cursor = contentResolver.query(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null,
                null);
Cursor phoneCursor = contentResolver.query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null,
                    Phone_CONTACT_ID + " = ?", new String[] { contact_id },
                    null);
String phoneNumber = phoneCursor.getString(phoneCursor
                            .getColumnIndex(NUMBER));

create loop for cursor and get all contacts.

Method you are using is the only one part of the SDK to do this, and only works on devices where the number is stored on the SIM card, which only some carriers do. For all other carriers, you will have to ask the user to enter the phone number manually, as the number is simply not stored anywhere on the device from where you can retrieve it.

get context in Fragment by using getActivity()

TelephonyManager tMgr = (TelephonyManager)getActivity().getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
