I want to write a BroadcastReceiver to receive the application install action. But it failed, so I test if my receiver is well or not. So custom a intent, it also filed. below is my code. Please help me correct it. public class MyInstallReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver { // public MyInstallReceiver() { // }
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Toast.makeText(context, "Intent Detected.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Log.d("receiver", "Intent Detected");
if (intent.getAction (). equals ("android.intent.action.PACKAGE_ADDED")) {
String packageName = intent.getDataString ();
//System.out.println ("installed:" + packageName + "package name of the program");
Log.d("receiver","installed:" + packageName + "package name of the program");
}
}
}
custom intent
public void installAPK(View v){
startActivity(intent);
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction("com.tutorialspoint.CUSTOM_INTENT");
sendBroadcast(intent);
Log.d("receiver", "Intent sent");
}
Manifest.xml
<receiver
android:name=".MyInstallReceiver"
android:enabled="true"
android:exported="true" >
<Intent-filter>
<action android:name = "android.intent.action.PACKAGE_ADDED"/>
<action android:name = "android.intent.action.PACKAGE_REMOVED"/>
<action android:name="com.tutorialspoint.CUSTOM_INTENT">
</action>
<Data android:scheme = "package" />
</Intent-filter>
</receiver>
enter code here

I don't know about correct spelling in your manifest, but this code is definitely works very well:
<receiver android:name=".MyInstallReceiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.PACKAGE_REMOVED" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.PACKAGE_ADDED" />
<data android:scheme="package"/>
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
Every application install/uninstall will trigger this receiver.

Everythong looks good, expect a typo in your manifest. It should be <intent-filter>
and not <Intent-filter>
