Android read browser history

Not really an answer but I can tell you what I did.

I first clone the browser repo and try to reproduce how they get the history.
And I started getting:

Permission Denial: reading
com.android.browser.BrowserProvider

So I added:

<uses-permission android:name="com.android.browser.permission.READ_HISTORY_BOOKMARKS" />

But it still is giving me the same error. I google it and I found this Accessing Data With Android Cursors.

Hope it helps.
