In my app I need to add contact to default google account and sync it.
Here my code:
public static void addContact(Context context, String DisplayName,String WorkNumber, String MobileNumber, String emailID,
String jobTitle, String company, String address){
ArrayList <ContentProviderOperation> ops = new ArrayList < ContentProviderOperation > ();
String account = getUsernameLong(context);
ops.add(ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(
ContactsContract.RawContacts.CONTENT_URI)
.withValue(ContactsContract.RawContacts.ACCOUNT_TYPE, "com.google")
.withValue(ContactsContract.RawContacts.ACCOUNT_NAME, account)
.build());
//------------------------------------------------------ Names
if (DisplayName != null) {
ops.add(ContentProviderOperation.newInsert(
ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI)
.withValueBackReference(ContactsContract.Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID, 0)
.withValue(ContactsContract.Data.MIMETYPE,
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.StructuredName.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE)
.withValue(
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.StructuredName.DISPLAY_NAME,
DisplayName).build());
}
..................
try {
context.getContentResolver().applyBatch(ContactsContract.AUTHORITY, ops);
//requestSyncNow(context);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
try {
//Toast.makeText(context, "Exception: " + e.getMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} catch (Exception e1) {
}
}
}
Here function getUsernameLong () that return google account
public static String getUsernameLong(Context context) {
AccountManager manager = AccountManager.get(context);
Account[] accounts = manager.getAccountsByType("com.google");
List<String> possibleEmails = new LinkedList<String>();
for (Account account : accounts) {
// account.name as an email address only for certain account.type values.
possibleEmails.add(account.name);
Log.i("DGEN ACCOUNT","CALENDAR LIST ACCOUNT/"+account.name);
}
if (!possibleEmails.isEmpty() && possibleEmails.get(0) != null) {
String email = possibleEmails.get(0);
return email;
}
return null;
}
This code add name to contact and on the phone I can see that on the phone it's on xxx@gmail.com account, but it's not sync with the remote account. I can't find it on gmail account as contact or on other device which same account
I also try to input statically google account xxxx@gmail.com but result will be the same, add to phone contact but not synch with google account.
UPDATE Code is OK, I forgot to enable synch of google account on my device
