Cannot Disable Broadcast Receiver

I got the logic for disable/enable broadcast receiver from here.

@Override
    public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton v, boolean checked) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        if (v == disableBlock) {
            manageBlockSetting(checked);
        }
    }

private void manageBlockSetting(boolean disable) {
        Log.e(tag, "Disable : " + disable);
        int flag = disable ? PackageManager.COMPONENT_ENABLED_STATE_DISABLED
                : PackageManager.COMPONENT_ENABLED_STATE_ENABLED;
        ComponentName component = new ComponentName(SettingActivity.this, PhoneCallReceiver.class);

        getApplication().getPackageManager().setComponentEnabledSetting(component, flag, PackageManager.DONT_KILL_APP);
        editSharedPreferences(StoreConstantValue.SETTING_DISABLE_BLOCK, disable);
}

And in Manifest.xml

<receiver android:name="com.vsmart.unocaller.blockingservice.PhoneCallReceiver" 
            android:enabled="true" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE" />
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>

When I deploy with android:enabled="false"

I can enable it once. But when I want to disable. Nothing happens, I can't disable it. It is still block incoming calls.

My device is Samsung Galaxy S2 with Android 2.3.3

Any help? Thanks

Instead of declare the receiver in manifest you can try registering/unregistering it from code. For example

private class MyPhoneStateListener extends PhoneStateListener {
    @Override
    public void onCallStateChanged(int state, String incomingNumber) {
        super.onCallStateChanged(state, incomingNumber);

    }
}


private MyPhoneStateListener phoneStateListener = new MyPhoneStateListener();

To enable

        telephonyManager.listen(phoneStateListener, LISTEN_CALL_STATE);

And to disable

    telephonyManager.listen(phoneStateListener,
            PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_NONE);

where 

        TelephonyManager telephonyManager = (TelephonyManager) getSystemService(TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
