And, for reference, the recipe above is only for system groups (hence
the /system_id in the url).
If you want to display a non-system group, try this:
uri = Uri.parse("content://contacts/groups/" +
"name/" +
Uri.encode(mGroupName) + // eg, "Starred in Android" - values
from
android.provider.Contacts.Groups.NAME
"/members");
