Get a contact name?

Question

I want to get the name of the contact, but I can’t. After looking at this answer , I tried to get the name using family, data and mapping, but nothing worked

@Override protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { if (requestCode == PICK_CONTACT && resultCode == RESULT_OK) { Uri contactUri = data.getData(); Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(contactUri, null, null, null, null); cursor.moveToFirst(); //Move to first row...I actually dont know why this part is necessary, but I get an error without it... int NumberColumn = cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER); //Int column is the column of the numbers int NameColumn = cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.StructuredName.GIVEN_NAME); String contactNumber = cursor.getString(NumberColumn); String contactName = cursor.getString(NameColumn); Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, ""+ contactNumber +"" +contactName, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); } 

/

 public void addContact(View v){ //OnClick listener to launch contact picker Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI); startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT); }

Try entering a code to get a specific number

 @Override protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data); if (requestCode == REQUEST_CODE_PICK_CONTACTS && resultCode == RESULT_OK) { Log.d(TAG, "Response: " + data.toString()); uriContact = data.getData(); retrieveContactName(); } } private void retrieveContactName() { String contactName = null; // querying contact data store Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(uriContact, null, null, null, null); if (cursor.moveToFirst()) { // DISPLAY_NAME = The display name for the contact. // HAS_PHONE_NUMBER = An indicator of whether this contact has at least one phone number. contactName = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME)); } cursor.close(); Log.d(TAG, "Contact Name: " + contactName); }
