Wish Pick a person with the default Android people list and return picked person

[bluedude]

Hi,

I need a people picker but I want to use the default People list to do that. Is that possible?

It means I need to handle the result after getting back in my app.

Cheers.

How do you start the picker? Intent?

It is possible to implement it with a library (see [java] Guide - Using onActivityResult)

The reason that there isn't such a library available is that the results are not good and vary between different devices. It will be simpler to use ContactUtils for this.

You can use this library: http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/th...esult-and-onactivityresult.26077/#post-190021

Erel, what issues do you see with this? Is it due to the activity stack being broken?

There were issues with the contact picker. It didn't return any result on some devices. I tested it quite a long time ago so things may be better now.

Ok, I have never tried it, but I'll take your word for it.
