How do I make a case insensitive query with ContentResolver in Android?

Question

My goal is to get all rows from native db with a specific email address on Android Gingerbread and above.

This query gets only the rows where the case also matches.

Answer 1

Please try (I suppose that mail is String object):

Cursor cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTENT_URI,
        new String[] {Contacts._ID}, "lower("+ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.ADDRESS + ")=lower('"+ email +"')",
        null, null);

or

Cursor cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTENT_URI,
        new String[] {Contacts._ID}, "lower("+ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.ADDRESS + ")=lower('"+ email +"')",
        new String[] {}, null);
