I know this question is similar to many questions of BroadcastReceiver but as I read, non of them have solutions.
the tutorial of BroadcastReceiver tells it will work even app was not running in the background, my question is why I can not use it when app is not running
I tried to call broadcast from main activity, use service and ....
but non of them solved my problem.
here is my CODE:
MyReceiver java Class:
public class MyReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Toast.makeText(context,"BroadCast Trigger",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
Also MyManifest Code:
<receiver
android:name=".MyReceiver"
android:enabled="true"
android:exported="true">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.media.VOLUME_CHANGED_ACTION" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
As I found there is no way to active BroadcastReceiver in Huawei Devices programmatically, but here is a solution to find device type and do needed action in this regard such as show an alert to user to activate it manually.
if ("huawei".equalsIgnoreCase(android.os.Build.MANUFACTURER)) {
// Do Needed Action
}
I faced with same problem on Huawey Honor with Android 7. On Sony and ZTE devices BroadcastReceiver works as expected. But on Honor it work some time and suddenly stop.
I discover, that problem not related with re-boot. I reboot device and broadcast receiver work after it. But sometimes, it stop without rebooting.
First i add my app to protected list according this solution:
"Protected Apps" setting on Huawei phones, and how to handle it
But it didn't help :(
Then, i add a fake accessibility service to my app, according to this recommendation:
Broadcast Receiver Not Working After Device Reboot in Android
And problem was solved!
