This simple example gets the image from contacts in android.

private void getContactsDetails() {
 
        Cursor phones = getContentResolver().query(
                ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI, null, null,
                null, null);
        while (phones.moveToNext()) {
            String Name = phones
                    .getString(phones
                            .getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.DISPLAY_NAME));
            String Number = phones
                    .getString(phones
                            .getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));
 
            String image_uri = phones
                    .getString(phones
                            .getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.PHOTO_URI));
 
            System.out.println("Contact1 : " + Name + ", Number " + Number
                    + ", image_uri " + image_uri);
  
             
            if (image_uri != null) {
                 image.setImageURI(Uri.parse(image_uri));
                }
             
 
        }
