I believe your problem is that you don't declare the permissions with the <permission/> tag in the Application1 manifest.
To verify this, I created two apps, with your manifests. I changed the package name from 'com.android' to 'com.example', because you shouldn't be using com.android, but otherwise used your manifests. I wrote a minimal bit of code for each app. I was able to reproduce the SecurityException. Once I added the following: <permission android:name="com.example.mytable.Permission.READ" android:protectionLevel="normal" android:description="@string/hello"></ permission> <permission android:name="com.example.mytable.Permission.WRITE" android:protectionLevel="normal" android:description="@string/hello"></ permission> And *redeployed* Application 2, it no longer got the security exception. (It started getting other errors, since I didn't really implement the provider's cursor, but they're the expected sort of error). Note that it is essential to deploy Application 2 again AFTER fixing Application 1, because the decisions about application permissions are made at installation time.
