EXTRA_FORCE_CREATE
public static final String EXTRA_FORCE_CREATE
      This constant was deprecated
      in API level 5.

Used with SHOW_OR_CREATE_CONTACT to force creating a new
 contact if no matching contact found. Otherwise, default behavior is

Type: BOOLEAN
Constant Value: "com.android.contacts.action.FORCE_CREATE"
SEARCH_SUGGESTION_CLICKED
public static final String SEARCH_SUGGESTION_CLICKED
      This constant is deprecated.
    see ContactsContract
  
This is the intent that is fired when a search suggestion is clicked on.
Constant Value: "android.provider.Contacts.SEARCH_SUGGESTION_CLICKED"
SEARCH_SUGGESTION_CREATE_CONTACT_CLICKED
public static final String SEARCH_SUGGESTION_CREATE_CONTACT_CLICKED
      This constant is deprecated.
    see ContactsContract

Constant Value: "android.provider.Contacts.SEARCH_SUGGESTION_CREATE_CONTACT_CLICKED"
SEARCH_SUGGESTION_DIAL_NUMBER_CLICKED
public static final String SEARCH_SUGGESTION_DIAL_NUMBER_CLICKED
      This constant is deprecated.
    see ContactsContract
  
This is the intent that is fired when a search suggestion for dialing a number is clicked on.
Constant Value: "android.provider.Contacts.SEARCH_SUGGESTION_DIAL_NUMBER_CLICKED"
SHOW_OR_CREATE_CONTACT
public static final String SHOW_OR_CREATE_CONTACT
      This constant was deprecated
      in API level 5.
    see ContactsContract
  
Takes as input a data URI with a mailto: or tel: scheme. If a single contact exists with the given data it will be shown. If no contact exists, a dialog will ask the user if they want to create a new contact with the provided details filled in. If multiple contacts share the data the user will be prompted to pick which contact they want to view.
 For mailto: URIs, the scheme specific portion must be a
 raw email address, such as one built using
 Uri.fromParts(String, String, String).
 
 For tel: URIs, the scheme specific portion is compared
 to existing numbers using the standard caller ID lookup algorithm.
 The number must be properly encoded, for example using
 Uri.fromParts(String, String, String).
 
 Any extras from the Insert class will be passed along to the
 create activity if there are no contacts to show.
 
 Passing true for the EXTRA_FORCE_CREATE extra will skip
 prompting the user when the contact doesn't exist.
Constant Value: "com.android.contacts.action.SHOW_OR_CREATE_CONTACT"
