[android-developers] Cursor Adapter for Contacts

I'm trying to get an autocompleteTextView with a custom cursor adapter
to allow a user to search his contacts and begin returning suggestions
from the first letter. My problem i that the way i've implemented it
now, which is the only way I have found to return name and phone
numbers from the current API only returns one contact though....so if
i search "r" it returns only one contact beginning with r until i
actually spell out a specific name

Code:

Cursor idCursor =mContent.query(uri, null, null, null, null);
String id = null;

while(idCursor.moveToNext())
{
int idIdx =
idCursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(ContactsContract.Contacts._ID);
id = idCursor.getString(idIdx);
Log.i(TAG, "idCursor count = " +idCursor.getCount());
Log.i(TAG, "ID"+ id);

}
idCursor.close();

if(id != null)
{

String where = ContactsContract.Data.CONTACT_ID + " = " + id
+ " AND " + ContactsContract.Data.MIMETYPE + " = '" +
ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE
+ "'";

Cursor dataCursor =
mContent.query(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI, null, where, null,
null);
int nameIdx =
dataCursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(ContactsContract.Data.DISPLAY_NAME);
Log.i(TAG, "NameIdx " + nameIdx);
int phoneIdx =
dataCursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER) ;
Log.i(TAG, "PhoneIdx " +phoneIdx);
int typeIdx =
dataCursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.TYPE);
Log.i(TAG, "typeIDx = " +typeIdx);
String[] result = new String[dataCursor.getCount()];
Log.i(TAG, "DataCursor = " +dataCursor.getCount());
if (dataCursor.moveToFirst())
do { // Extract the name.
String name = dataCursor.getString(nameIdx);
// Extract the phone number.
String number = dataCursor.getString(phoneIdx);
Log.i(TAG, "Number = " +number);
result[dataCursor.getPosition()] = name + " (" + number +
")"; } while(dataCursor.moveToNext());

return dataCursor;

}

Clearly the reason I can only get one name is obviously because I pass
the id from my first query.....So basically I am looking for the same
the effect as I have now that can match its query to multiple contact
ids

Any help?
