Thanks Mark

But is there any way to know what fields are changed.

 You can register an observer to monitor a specific uri.  For example:

 Define the observer
 private ContentObserver yourObserver = new ContentObserver(new Handler
 ()) {
         @Override
         public boolean deliverSelfNotifications() {
             return true;
         }

         @Override
         public void onChange(boolean selfChange) {
             Cursor cursor = getCursor();
             if (cursor != null  !cursor.isClosed()) {
                 cursor.requery();
             }
         }
     };

 Now add the code to register it.
 getContentResolver().registerContentObserver(Uri.parse(content://
 contacts/people),
                     true, yourObserver);

 This will notify you whenever a change is made to the people table.
 It will not however tell you what was changed.

  Hi

  Is there any way to know the changes made in the address book.
  What I want to know is that whenever an contact is added ,modified or
  deleted  my app should receive the notification as well as the ID of
  the contact changed.

  Thanks in advance

I do not believe so.

The above code just redraws the screen anytime there is a change to
the people table.
