That's because broadcasts aren't dropped. I don't know what probably the original poster is having, but broadcasts don't get dropped because of their contents. (They will however get dropped due to error situations, such as an app not handling its broadcast within the 10 second limit or there being a permission failure.) There *is* a new flag that was introduced in Froyo to allow multiple matching broadcasts to be combined into one, but unless you are specifying this flag this behavior will never come into play: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html#FLAG_RECEIVER_REPLACE_PENDING I suppose it is possible you could be specifying the activity flag with the same value (FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP) for some reason when sending the broadcast? -- Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer [email protected] Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support, and so won't reply to such e-mails.
