Change

List<String> historylist = Arrays.asList(history);

to

 List<String> historylist = new LinkedList (Arrays.asList(history));

and see this post why this error occur in case of List :

Why do I get an UnsupportedOperationException when trying to remove an element from a List?

You cannot add or remove elements from the list returned by Arrays.asList because the list is backed by the original array. To create a list that you can modify, you can do this:

List<String> historylist = new ArrayList<String>(Arrays.asList(history));

I believe Arrays.asList() creates is fixed-length, and so does not support removing.

Try using an implementation that supports removing like ArrayList instead.
