This question was answered by Geoff in SecurityException: caller uid XXXX is different than the authenticator's uid
Geoff's reply for that question: Finally, another thing to check is that your content provider and the authentication, and sync services are declared as children of the application tag.
service tag was placed outside tag in my AndroidManifest.xml. Once, I made service tag child of , things started working.
