Apps getContentResolver().delete(Contacts.Phones.CONTEN T_URI, null

[leverd]

I want to delete multiple phone numbers in a single query. I'm using the following code.

getContentResolver.delete(Contacts.Phones.CONTENT_FILTER_URL, null, null);

I will be adding where/select args to limit what I delete, but even the above throws an exception.

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Cannot delete that URL: content://contacts/phones

Shouldn't it be possible to do this? I'm using v1.5.

Thanks for any help!

Here is the answer.

It was left out of the implementation. You need to query for the IDs of each phone number, and delete them one by one (wasted CPU cycles).

I have to say. I hate the android SDK. It's overly complex and has too many lose ends/bugs.
