Receiving call intent in broadcast receiver

I want to get the called number in android but When I start the outgoing call it fails I am using broadcast receiver and register it in service to keep listen if activity not in focus here is my code.

Menifest.xml

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

<application
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:supportsRtl="true"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
    <activity android:name=".MainActivity" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED">
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.NEW_OUTGOING_CALL" />


            </action>
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>

    <service android:name=".MyService" />


    <receiver
        android:name="com.example.vampirepc.androidservice.OutgoingReceiver"
        android:enabled="true"
        android:exported="true" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.NEW_OUTGOING_CALL" />
        </intent-filter>
    </receiver>

</application>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.PROCESS_OUTGOING_CALLS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE"/>
</manifest>

BroadcastReceiver Class

  @Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {

    Toast.makeText(ctx,
            "Inside broadcast",
            Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();


    String phoneNumber = intent.getStringExtra(Intent.EXTRA_PHONE_NUMBER);

    Toast.makeText(context, "Outgoing call catched: " + phoneNumber, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();


}

Service

  @Override
public void onCreate() {
    Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Service created",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

    try {


        IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter("android.intent.action.NEW_OUTGOING_CALL");

        OutgoingReceiver myReceiver = new OutgoingReceiver();
        registerReceiver(myReceiver, filter);


    } catch (Exception e) {

        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Exception is "+String.valueOf(e),Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

    }



}

Thank to all i have solved the problem my self I was using incorrect context in toaster the correct onReceive is. I was using ctx which was initialize.

Context ctx;


   public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {

    Toast.makeText(context, "this is not shown"     , Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();



    String phoneNumber = intent.getStringExtra(Intent.EXTRA_PHONE_NUMBER);

    Toast.makeText(context, "Outgoing call catched: " + phoneNumber, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();


 }

Have you realized in this line:

Toast.makeText(ctx,
        "Inside broadcast",
        Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

You used ctx instead of context.
