how to edit contact using action_edit intent in android?

I am new in android.I have an app which allows user to edit contacts. And in that app I have Me contact, problem is when I try to edit it, by retrieving uri of me contact, it always show error in logcat.I am using the following code, but it's not working.

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    button=(Button)findViewById(R.id.button);

    button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Uri uri = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI;
            Cursor cursor = getApplicationContext().getContentResolver().query(uri, null, null, null, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME + " ASC");
            long idContact = cursor.getLong(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID));
            Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_EDIT);
            Uri contactUri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, idContact);
            i.setData(contactUri);
            i.putExtra("finishActivityOnSaveCompleted", true);
            startActivity(i);
        }
    });
}

Logcat is.....

Don't forget to move the Cursor when reading data:

while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
  long idContact = cursor.getLong(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID));
}

or, if the assumption is that there's only one entry,

if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
  long idContact = cursor.getLong(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID));
}
