As I understand your question you want add number and name in collection-Use HashMap for that.

 HashMap<String,String> contactList = new HashMap<String,String>();

switch (reqCode) {
case (0):
    if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {

        Uri uri = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI;
        String[] projection = new String[] {
                ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME,
                ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER };

        Cursor people = getContentResolver().query(uri, projection,
                null, null, null);

        int indexName = people
                .getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME);
        int indexNumber = people
                .getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER);

        people.moveToFirst();
        do {
            String name = people.getString(indexName);
            String number = people.getString(indexNumber);

            String contact = name + "" + number;
            contactList.put(number,name);
        } while (people.moveToNext());

    }

i am choosing one name from contacts and i want to show just this contact — mstfdz, Aug 13 '13 at 06:24
