Create an explicit intent by explicitly declaring the receiver when you create the intent. At present your intent is implicit.

public void callIntent() {
    // Explicitly declare the receiver class
    Intent intent = new Intent(this, MyReciever.class);
    intent.setAction("com.plectre");
    intent.putExtra("frist", "Intent premier" );
    sendBroadcast(intent);
    Log.i("callIntent", "Tag");
}

Also. You declare the intent's Extra as "frist" and try to receive at as "first". This needs to be rectified.

You should ensure that the correct action is taken with the specified Intent Action in your receiver:

@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
    if ("com.plectre".equals(intent.getAction())) {
        final String result = intent.getStringExtra("first");
        Toast.makeText(context, "Result", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        Log.i("Broadcast", " Receiver");
    }
}
