android update contact name

Question

I need to update a contact name but i didn't way the way to do that with the old contact api (my application must work in 1.5,1.6 AND 2.X)

Answer 1

Ahan well do something like this

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_EDIT);

i.setData(Uri.parse("content://com.android.contacts/raw_contacts/1));

//Here 1 is the id of the contact to edit. You can also generate it automatically.

startActivity(i);

If you mean at runtime you want to select id from an text box , you can do something like

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_EDIT);

i.setData(Uri.parse("content://com.android.contacts/raw_contacts/" + textBox.getText() ));

//Here textBox should have any numerical value of the contact to edit.

startActivity(i);
