I'm using Samsung Galaxy Note 4, and I donno why none of the above worked for me. I mixed up some and made this woking..

    Cursor people = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
    people.moveToFirst();
    while(people.moveToNext()) {
       int nameFieldColumnIndex = people.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME);
       String contact = people.getString(nameFieldColumnIndex);
       int numberFieldColumnIndex = people.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DATA);
       String number = people.getString(numberFieldColumnIndex);
       dbWriter.execSQL("Insert Into ContactsList (ContactName, ContactNumber) Values (" +
                 "'" + contact.replace("'",  "''") + "', '" + number.replace("'",  "''") + "')");
    }
    people.close();
