retrieve contact's nickname
- by TomTasche
Hello,
I want to get the nickname of a contact from addressbook. I start with his phone number, query it and want the nickname (aka alias) as a result.
Cursor cur = context.getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER + " = " + incomingNumber, null, null);
if (cur.moveToFirst()) {
Log.e("saymyname", cur.getString(cur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Nickname.NAME)));
Log.e("saymyname", cur.getString(cur.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Nickname.LABEL)));
}
Output of the logs is the incomingNumber (first Log.e() ) and null (second Log.e() ), but I want to get the contact's nickname!
Thanks
Tom
