在Android中访问Gmail标签API

Question

I've got an app in the play store which reads the gmail labels (based on the sample app provided on the google blog)

It works fine for most people, but for some they get the following error from the app:

 "java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: reading com.google.android.gm.provider.PublicContentProvider uri content://com.google.android.gm/test@example.com/labels from pid=29069, uid=10087 requires com.google.android.gm.permission.READ_CONTENT_PROVIDER, or grantUriPermission()"

The code I'm using is:

Cursor c = context.getContentResolver().query(GmailContract.Labels.getLabelsUri(accountName),null, null, null, null);

And my manifest file has:

<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.gm.permission.READ_CONTENT_PROVIDER" />

Therefore I've no idea why some people they get this error. It's not just a handful of people, there's over 100 people that have reported this (but thousands that haven't)

Can anyone shed any light?

I'm not familiar with java. But, Sms Backup Plus application includes a similar feature. Be useful to consider.
