I changed all the provider permission,manifest file all those things. But dictionary not working.

Manifest:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.searchbook"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="16"
        android:targetSdkVersion="15" />

    <application
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_dictionary"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >

         <!-- The default activity of the app; displays search results. -->
        <activity android:name=".SearchBook"
                  android:launchMode="singleTop">

            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>

            <!-- Receives the search request. -->
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEARCH" />
                <!-- No category needed, because the Intent will specify this class component-->
            </intent-filter>

            <!-- Points to searchable meta data. -->
            <meta-data android:name="android.app.searchable"
                       android:resource="@xml/searchable" />

        </activity>

        <!-- Displays the definition of a word. -->
        <activity android:name=".WordActivity" />

        <!-- Provides search suggestions for words and their definitions. -->
        <provider android:name=".DictionaryProvider"
                  android:authorities="com.example.searchbook.DictionaryProvider" />

        <!-- Points to searchable activity so the whole app can invoke search. -->
        <meta-data android:name="android.app.default_searchable"
                   android:value=".SearchBook" />


    </application>

</manifest>

"com.example.searchbook" seems like convention of android for sample apps. There may be an existing app named exactly like that. As you pointed out it launches the default. Try to refactor it to something else like "com.stackoverflow.karthi".
