SQLiteException trying to load a contact photo with Picasso

Question

I'm getting the following error on some devices when trying to load some contact photos in a CursorAdapter:

The SQL query being used to get the photo stream is invalid.

Here's how I'm loading the image:

Query the ContactsContract:

public static final String[] PROJECTION = { Contacts._ID, Contacts.LOOKUP_KEY, Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME_PRIMARY,
        Contacts.PHOTO_THUMBNAIL_URI, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.DATA };
public static final String SELECTION = ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.DATA + " <> '' AND "
        + Contacts.IN_VISIBLE_GROUP + "=1";
public static final String ORDER_BY = Contacts.SORT_KEY_PRIMARY;

@Override
public Loader<Cursor> onCreateLoader(int loaderId, Bundle args) {
    return new CursorLoader(this, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Email.CONTENT_URI, PROJECTION, SELECTION, null,
            ORDER_BY);
}

Pass the resulting Cursor to an adapter. Get a contact photo URI like so:

Uri photoUri = Contacts.getLookupUri(cursor.getLong(cursor.getColumnIndex(Contacts._ID)),
                cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(Contacts.LOOKUP_KEY)));

Load that photo using Picasso:

Picasso.with(context).load(photoUri).placeholder(R.drawable.ic_contact_picture).into(photo);

As I said, the exception only occurs on some devices. Wrapping the Picasso call in a try/catch unfortunately does nothing, because the image is being loaded asynchronously. I could create an AsyncTask and load the image synchronously, but then what's the point of using Picasso?

Answer 1

Cloning the updated Picasso code and building the jar myself fixed the problem. I've heard they're planning a new official release soon.
