contentobserver

In my application, I am inserting values in database from a different class which gives me id of inserted row. I have registered an observer of it in my UI and whenever any row is inserted, my UI content observer will get called. Both the classes are entirely different so I am finding it difficult to get inserted row id. Is there any way to get this row id in my content observer so that I can update my UI accordingly? P.S. context.getContentResolver().notifyChange(uri, null); is not my solution, as i want effected in ( to update effected change ) on UI . When you insert the new row, you have

As my application uses content from android.provider.ContactsContract.Data (API > 11) and ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI (API < 11) to populate Contacts . I've tried to registerContentObserver() against these provider. But it calls my ContentObserver even if I tries to Call a person from device as soon as I put the call. It does trigger my ContentObserver which is not useful for me as there's no Content Change in Contacts Provider . Root Cause: Seems like LAST_TIME_CONTACTED or something in ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI do changes when a call has been made from device which

I have defined the following service with an observer of messages sent. The problem is that when sending a message, I sense that is called 3 times onChange method of contentobserver. ¿Someone know tell me why? Thanks public class DSMSService extends Service { private static final String CONTENT_SMS = "content://sms"; private class MyContentObserver extends ContentObserver { ContentValues values = new ContentValues(); int threadId; public MyContentObserver() { super(null); } @Override public void onChange(boolean selfChange) { super.onChange(selfChange); Log.v(TAG, "****************************

I want to get a notification on my phone if there is any change in the contact database(add,delete).Right now i am using ContentObserver to get notified.Following is my code.Problem is that i able not able to know which contact is changed.Can anyone help??? public class ContentObserverActivity extends Activity { Button registerbutton; @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); registerbutton=(Button)findViewById(R.id.button1); registerbutton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() { @Override public void

The documentation of the ContentObserver is not clear to me. On which thread is the onChange of a ContentObserver called? I checked and it is not the thread where you created the observer. It looks like it is the thread that sends the notification but I didn't find a documentation about it. The Thread that the ContentObserver.onChange() method is executed on is the ContentObserver constructor 's Handler 's Looper 's Thead . For example, to have it run on the main UI thread , the code may look like this: // returns the applications main looper (which runs on the application's // main UI thread)

There are lots of questions related to it but none of them help me to get the solution. I am trying to sync all contacts from device to remote server and able to do it easily but when there is a change in contact like update/delete/insert(new contact) unable to find the solution. Tried using ContentObserver but onChange() is getting called multiple times. It's difficult to find the contact changes data. public class ContactService extends Service { private int mContactCount; @Override public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0) { return null; } @Override public void onCreate() { super.onCreate();

I am able to get a generic notification "that there was a change to the contacts DB", but I want to know the specific record that was inserted, updated, or deleted. Following is the code that gets registered and gets the onChange notification. Unfortunately, it is not specific which makes my processing exhaustive and inefficient. Here is the code stub: if ((mNativeContactsObserver == null) && (mHandler == null)) { mHandler = new Handler(this.getMainLooper()) { }; mNativeContactsObserver = new ContentObserver(mHandler) { @Override public void onChange(boolean selfChange) { super.onChange
