title: Android: cursor.getCount()
body: <p>I'm wondering if there is any alternative for cursor.getCount() which is way too expensive! My goal is to run one query first, if cursor is null or cursor.getCount() &lt;=0 then I will need to run another query.</p>
  
  <p>But since the underlying data can be large, I was getting Application Not Responding for the getCount() call. any better solution to do it?</p>
