This is for accessing phone call history   As of Jellybean  4 1  you need the following permission   lt uses-permission android name  android permission READ CALL LOG    gt   Code    Uri allCalls   Uri parse  content   call log calls     Cursor c   managedQuery allCalls  null  null  null  null    String num  c getString c getColumnIndex CallLog Calls NUMBER      for  number String name  c getString c getColumnIndex CallLog Calls CACHED NAME      for name String duration   c getString c getColumnIndex CallLog Calls DURATION      for duration int type   Integer parseInt c getString c getColumnIndex CallLog Calls TYPE       for call type  Incoming or out going

Before considering making Read Call Log or Read SMS permissions a part of your application I strongly advise you to have a look at this policy of Google Play Market  https   support google com googleplay android-developer answer 9047303 hl en  Those permissions are very sensitive and you will have to prove that your application needs them  But even if it really needs them Google Play Support team may easily reject your request without proper explanations    This is what happened to me  After providing all the needed information along with the Demonstration video of my application it was rejected with the explanation that my  account is not authorized to provide a certain use case solution in my application   the list of use cases they may consider as an exception is listed on that Policy page   No link to any policy statement was provided to explain what it all means  Basically they just judged my app as not to go without proper explanation   I wish you good luck of cause with your applications guys but be careful
