By far the easiest way is to do this based on app certificates -- just use
android:readPermission and android:writePermission in the manifest, and
declare the permission you are using there with <permission> to be
android:protectionLevel="signature".  Then only apps signed with the same
certificate as your own will be able to get the permission, and thus able to
read/write the provider.

Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to
provide private support, and so won't reply to such e-mails.  All such
questions should be posted on public forums, where I and others can see and
answer them.
