 So I was planning to have an app to wake up and do something but I need

 to be able to read globally from all apps regardless. Thanks in advance.

It is not possible, sorry.

You can only access key events from your own activities, with the
exception of a couple of keys (e.g., CAMERA) for which there are
broadcast Intents.
