I have issue in BOOT_COMPLETED

NOTE: I have surfing stackoverflow answer before asking this, so don't make it duplicate

I am trying to create app which is run in background mode,there is not any activity in my application, my application should work like After 10 minutes it will check call log and if it was changed from last then it should send call log to server. I have tried with boot_completed intent 

 public class BootUpReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver{
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        Log.d("schedulereceiver", "starting schedule");
    }
}

and i have declare receiver like

 <receiver
            android:name="com.ixo.BootUpReceiver"
            android:enabled="true" android:exported="false"
            android:permission="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            </intent-filter>
  </receiver>

I have added permission

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />

I want to clear, I am testing on 4.2 version, and its nexus tablet, hope it is not creating problems

if I am checking log

UPDATE

if it is not working in 3.1 and above, is there any alternative to develop above.

As a security fix, new versions of Android will not allow a BroadcastReceiver to receive BOOT_COMPLETE until it has been launched by the user- which requires there to be an activity that they launch. It's annoying, but you'll have to add an activity of some sort.
