H'mmm I tried adding the following to my AndroidManifest.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="com.bt.btinnovate.android.photoobserver" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.0.0"> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED"> <application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/ app_name"> <receiver android:enabled="true" android:name=".MyReceiver" android:permission="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETE" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETE"/> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /> </intent-filter> </receiver> SNIP... My BroadcastReceiver class looks like :- package com.bt.btinnovate.android.photoobserver; import java.util.Iterator; import java.util.Set; import android.content.BroadcastReceiver; import android.content.Context; import android.content.Intent; import android.util.Log; public class MyReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver { private static final String TAG="MyRcvr"; @Override public void onReceive(Context ctxt, Intent intent) { Log.d(TAG,"onReceive() ---ENTER---"); Log.d(TAG,"Intent ACTION: "+intent.getAction()); Log.d(TAG,"Intent CATEGORIES ..."); Set<String> catSet=intent.getCategories(); Iterator<String> it=catSet.iterator(); while (it.hasNext()) { Log.d(TAG," "+it.next()); } Log.d(TAG,"Done."); Log.d(TAG,"onReceive() ---EXIT-----"); } } When I boot my ADP1 (attached via USB cable to my Windows dev host), I do not get any indication in ddms that the MyReceiver object is actually receiving the BOOT_COMPLETE Intent. Is there anything wrong with my AndroidManifest.xml entry ?
