How to get numbers from contacts in android?

Get contacts in Android

• I want to get the contact numbers in Android but as far as I found a tutorial, it puts out the number in ascending order, not in the order they appear in the contacts... How can I modify the code to obtain the numbers in the exact order from my contact list?? Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(Phone.CONTENT_URI, new String[]{Phone.NUMBER}, null,null, null); ArrayList <String> nr_formatat = new ArrayList <String> (); if (cursor != null) { while (cursor.moveToNext() == true) nr_formatat.add(cursor.getString( cursor.getColumnIndex(Phone.NUMBER))); }

• Answer:

  You're going about it the wrong way. You need to query the number against the CONTACT_ID or else you won't have any correspondence between the two. Take a look at http://www.higherpass.com/Android/Tutorials/Working-With-Android-Contacts/.
