I've seen the previous thread - and not much else on the topic. So it seems extracting information from contacts is still a pain. Then I discovered Xamarin.Mobile and figured it would be the solution to all my problems.
So I wrote some code that is basically the same as https://gist.github.com/1449755 Here's my problem - in OnActivityResult var book = new AddressBook(this); book.PreferContactAggregation = true; Contact myContact = book.Load(data.Data.LastPathSegment); myContact remains null at all times. And if I I try to go the traditional route, then look up the display name ( string id = data.Data.LastPathSegment; var contacts = ManagedQuery(ContactsContract.Contacts.ContentUri, null, "_id = ?", new string[] { id }, null); contacts.MoveToFirst(); string displayName = contacts.GetString(contacts.GetColumnIndex("display_name")); myContact = book.FirstOrDefault(c => c.DisplayName == displayName); ) then I get a TargetInvocationException on the last line. Any ideas how I can get all phone numbers and types from the contact that the user has selected? -- View this message in context: http://mono-for-android.1047100.n5.nabble.com/Contact-woes-tp5710996.html Sent from the Mono for Android mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Monodroid mailing list Monodroid@lists.ximian.com UNSUBSCRIBE INFORMATION: http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monodroid
