android : ACTION_PACKAGE_ADDED not received (xperia SO-03D)

When a new application is installed , my BroadcastReceiver gets package data with a simple filter :

filter = new IntentFilter();
filter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_PACKAGE_ADDED);
filter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_PACKAGE_REPLACED);
filter.addDataScheme("package");

receiver = new newPackageReceiver();
registerReceiver(receiver, filter);

...

public class newPackageReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {

        final String info = intent.getData().toString();
            ...
            }
    }

BroadcastReceiver is called with most of devices... However, with this device (only in japanese, sorry), onReceive is never called.

No update available for the device.... any ideas?

Maybe this helps. Try to add the receiver to the manifest.

<receiver android:name=".YourReceiver">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.PACKAGE_INSTALL" />
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.PACKAGE_ADDED" />
        <data android:scheme="package"/>
    </intent-filter>
</receiver>

And in YourReceiver class:

public class YourReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        String act = intent.getAction();
        if (Intent.ACTION_PACKAGE_ADDED.equals(act) || Intent.ACTION_PACKAGE_REMOVED.equals(act)) {
            //Do what you want
        }
}

I hope this would help, but it seems that the problem is with this device's rom.
