Android Broadcast Receiver not Working (Boot Complete)

I want to start BroadcastReceiever on installation of my application. I found some Thread over stackoverflow that this could be done by using Boot Complete BroadCastReceiever.

But After writing code we could not get success because my receiver did not call at all.

Manifest File:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.broadcastdemo"

    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="8"
        android:targetSdkVersion="18" />




    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
        <activity
            android:name="com.example.broadcastdemo.MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name" >


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

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

        <receiver android:name="com.example.broadcastdemo.BootReceiver"  
            android:enabled="true"
             android:exported="false" 
            >`


`
  <intent-filter>
          <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED"/>
          <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
     </intent-filter>
</receiver>
    </application>

</manifest>

Did you register the receiver in manifest.xml

<receiver
            android:name="YOUR_ACTION_STRING.BootCompletedReceiver"
            android:enabled="true"
            android:exported="false" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>
