Broadcast Receiver for start android app after booting

gistfile1.txt

Well you can have a BroadcastReceiver declared in your manifest to receive the BOOT_COMPLETED broadcast and then respond to that in your BroadcastReceiver and do what you like.

<receiver android:name="MyBootReceiver"
        android:enabled="true"
        android:exported="true"
        android:label="BootReceiver">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED"></action>

        </intent-filter>
    </receiver>

I've done something similiar, but I was starting activity. Here is how I done it:

In Manifest:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />

In Java code:

public class BootUpReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        PendingIntent i = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, new Intent(
                context,MainActivity.class),
                Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
        AlarmManager mgr = (AlarmManager) context
                .getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
        mgr.set(AlarmManager.RTC, System.currentTimeMillis() + 20000, i);
    }
}
