Getting a Photo from a Contact

Getting a Photo from a Contact

Probably this will help you(contact is identified by getId()):

/**
 * @return the photo URI
 */
public Uri getPhotoUri() {
    try {
        Cursor cur = this.ctx.getContentResolver().query(
                ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI,
                null,
                ContactsContract.Data.CONTACT_ID + "=" + this.getId() + " AND "
                        + ContactsContract.Data.MIMETYPE + "='"
                        + ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Photo.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE + "'", null,
                null);
        if (cur != null) {
            if (!cur.moveToFirst()) {
                return null; // no photo
            }
        } else {
            return null; // error in cursor process
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        return null;
    }
    Uri person = ContentUris.withAppendedId(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, Long
            .parseLong(getId()));
    return Uri.withAppendedPath(person, ContactsContract.Contacts.Photo.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);
}

Usage is:

Uri u = objItem.getPhotoUri();
if (u != null) {
        mPhotoView.setImageURI(u);
} else {
        mPhotoView.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_contact_picture_2);
}

Android - Get Contact Photo from phone number

public static Bitmap retrieveContactPhoto(Context context, String number) {
        ContentResolver contentResolver = context.getContentResolver();
        String contactId = null;
        Uri uri = Uri.withAppendedPath(ContactsContract.PhoneLookup.CONTENT_FILTER_URI, Uri.encode(number));

        String[] projection = new String[]{ContactsContract.PhoneLookup.DISPLAY_NAME, ContactsContract.PhoneLookup._ID};

        Cursor cursor =
                contentResolver.query(
                        uri,
                        projection,
                        null,
                        null,
                        null);

        if (cursor != null) {
            while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
                contactId = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(ContactsContract.PhoneLookup._ID));
            }
            cursor.close();
        }

        Bitmap photo = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(context.getResources(),
                R.drawable.default_image);

        try {
            if(contactId != null) {
                InputStream inputStream = ContactsContract.Contacts.openContactPhotoInputStream(context.getContentResolver(),
                    ContentUris.withAppendedId(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, new Long(contactId)));

                if (inputStream != null) {
                    photo = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(inputStream);
                }

                assert inputStream != null;
                inputStream.close();
            }
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return photo;
    }

Get image from Contact Swift

There are three properties related to contact images according to the API reference doc from apple:

Image Properties

var imageData: Data? The profile picture of a contact.

var thumbnailImageData: Data? The thumbnail version of the contact’s profile picture.

var imageDataAvailable: Bool Indicates whether a contact has a profile picture.

You can get the CNContact instance from CNContactProperty, and then access imageData in CNContact class.

So your code may look like this:

func contactPicker(picker: CNContactPickerViewController, didSelectContactProperty contactProperty: CNContactProperty) {
   let contact = contactProperty.contact
   if contact.imageDataAvailable {
      // there is an image for this contact
      let image = UIImage(data: contact.imageData)
      // Do what ever you want with the contact image below
      ...
   }
}

How to get photo of the contact in Android?

Instead of ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone._ID, you must use ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID to save the cursorID of Contacts table. It solved my problem.

Getting contact photo

I got it, I did a query against the RAW_CONTACT_ID with the MIMETYPE and that gave me the photo I was looking for

Cursor p = context.getContentResolver().query(Data.CONTENT_URI,new String[] {Photo.PHOTO},
                Data.RAW_CONTACT_ID + "=" + contactId + " AND " + Data.MIMETYPE + "='" + Photo.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE+"'"
                ,null,null);
