Thanks again mark for enlightening me :) But one more ques please.
I have registered [ACTION_BATTERY_CHANGED] programmatically in activity A1. I am able to get broadcast event for battery change in A1. Now from that A1 started a new activity A2. But I am not able to get these broad cast event in Activity A2. Why so?
