    <p>I'm trying to obtain a list of contacts from the native database with their Display Name and Phone Number (any or all). There are many methods for obtaining this information with several queries to the phone's database, but this introduces considerable overhead.</p> <p>Here is the query I've been working on, but it results in </p> <pre><code>Uri uri = ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI; String[] projection = new String[] { ContactsContract.Contacts._ID, ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER}; String selection = ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER + " = '1'"; String[] selectionArgs = null; String sortOrder = ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME + " COLLATE LOCALIZED ASC"; Cursor people = getContentResolver().query(uri, projection, selection, selectionArgs, sortOrder); int index_id = people.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts._ID); int indexName = people.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME); int indexNumber = people.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER); people.moveToFirst(); do { String _id = people.getString(index_id); String name = people.getString(indexName); String number = people.getString(indexNumber); // Do work... } while (people.moveToNext()); </code></pre> <p>And here's the resulting error.</p> <pre><code>E/AndroidRuntime(21549): Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid column data1 E/AndroidRuntime(21549): at android.database.DatabaseUtils.readExceptionFromParcel(DatabaseUtils.java:144) E/AndroidRuntime(21549): at android.database.DatabaseUtils.readExceptionFromParcel(DatabaseUtils.java:114) E/AndroidRuntime(21549): at android.content.ContentProviderProxy.bulkQueryInternal(ContentProviderNative.java:372) E/AndroidRuntime(21549): at android.content.ContentProviderProxy.query(ContentProviderNative.java:408) E/AndroidRuntime(21549): at android.content.ContentResolver.query(ContentResolver.java:264) </code></pre> <p>Thoughts? I believe a join may be needed to get all the columns in a single query.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
