Re: [android-developers] Contact Manager Sample Code
Hi, Since the code worked on a real device and not on emulators, I just have to ask: Did you try to add any contact to the emulator before running the sample code? /Poncho On 02/19/2012 10:59 PM, Michael Ennovium wrote: The Contact Manager Sample code has given me hours of frustration. The sample code displays all the contacts in a List View and also provides for adding new contacts. I have no difficulty with the Add Contact portion. The listing of the contact gives different results for the list on diffent platforms. 1. Using my Samsumg Infuse 2.2 phone, the sample works correctly. 2. Using an emulator configured for Level 8, no contacts are displayed*. 3. Using an Acer Iconia tablet, no contacts are displayed*. 4. Using an emulator confgured for 3.2, no contacts are displayed*. * In all cases where no contacts are displayed, the cursor.getCount() returns a zero. The same source code is used without modification on each platform. I know it has to be "cockpit" error on my side but I am stumped. Any direction is graciously appreciated. My goal is to develop for the tablet and this has become a gating issue for me. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

Re: [android-developers] Contact Number
Hi,
1) You should call the contact picker using startActivityForResult
2) You should override onActivityResult and parse the data returned from
the contact picker.
Something like:
...
Uri result = data.getData();
String id = result.getLastPathSegment();
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(Phone.CONTENT_URI, null,
Email.CONTACT_ID + "=?", new String [] { id }, null);
int numberIdx = cursor.getColumnIndex(Phone.DATA);
if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
String number = cursor.getString(numberIdx);
yourEditText.setText(number);
}
Don't forget to verify that the activityResult are returned from the
contact picker and the result code is ok.
Hope this helps

Re: [android-developers] Shared Preferences
Hi,
The code itself is fine except that you don't print the exception.
If you would log the exception you can see (in the LogCat) that the
run-time is throwing some kind of a ParseException.
This is since users (usually) don't type 'L' at the end of their numeric
input, even when it's long.
Hope this helps

Re: [android-developers] Custom label and text box in ListView?
According to the following thread " ListView isn't really meant to handle that type of UI with editable entries". http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/50f0fc185da8fe4d?pli=1 The suggested solution is to use vertical LinearLayout wrapped in a ScrollView, containing horizontal LinearLayours of the TextView and EditText.

What I'm having trouble finding is an example where the EditText boxes are filled upon creation, and then read back on an event.
