Question

I am working on android apps. I want to add a contact in android phone group. The code I am using is below:

    ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
                    values.put(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.GroupMembership.RAW_CONTACT_ID,personId);

    values.put(
        ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.GroupMembership.GROUP_ROW_ID,GROUP_ID);

    values.put(
        ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.GroupMembership.MIMETYPE,ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.GroupMembership.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);

    Log.d("values :", ""+ values);

    this.getContentResolver().insert(   
                 ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI, values);

Unfortunately, this is not working. Does anyone see anything obviously wrong with the above code?

Answer 1

Bellow code is worked perfect in my side. So, Please try it or you can download sample example from chetanbhalala

try
{

   // Add selected contact to selected group
   ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
       values.put(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.GroupMembership.RAW_CONTACT_ID,Integer.parseInt(245)); // 245 is a contact id, replace with selected contact id

       values.put(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.GroupMembership.GROUP_ROW_ID,3);// 3 is a group id, replace with selected group id

       values.put(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.GroupMembership.MIMETYPE,ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.GroupMembership.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE);

       ContextWrapper context = this;
       context.getContentResolver().insert(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI, values);
       // End add contact to group code
}
catch (Exception e) 
{
   // TODO: handle exception
   Log.d("add group error :", ""+ e.getMessage().toString());
}
