Auto Start Application After Boot Completed in Android

Auto start application after boot completed in Android

You can use the shared preference to store a Boolean value for isAutoStartEnabled, and check this value in the BroadcastReciver, fire an intent only if it's true.

In your case, the problem is not whether you receive the broadcast but who receives the broadcast. Best of luck..

I hope it helps..

Need to start app immediately after the boot completed

This can increase you priority but still there would be some delay. Since android first load its OS and the all the other activity starts.

<receiver
    android:name=".AutoStart"
    android:enabled="true"
    android:exported="true"
    <intent-filter android:priority="1000">
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
    </intent-filter>
</receiver>

How can I start android application on device boot?

After I added the boot permissions in manifest file (see code below), BroadcastReceiver started to get boot completed event and the service is starting successfully. For the solution to work (as suggested by @Eren Tüfekçi) I had to enable auto start permission in phone settings for my application. If anyone has a solution, how to enable it programmatically, please let us know. Thank you.

Autostart (BOOT_COMPLETED) does not work on the Nomi tablet

I realized that the problem is not in the code, but the device itself. Autoplay not working on my tablet for any application. As a workaround I have used the event "android.intent.action.USER_PRESENT", which is triggered after the device loading and screen unlocking.

auto start app when boot completed android

Add:

<intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
</intent-filter>

To your <receiver> element in the manifest.

android broadcastreceiver auto start on boot up

The problem is you are trying to show an AlertDialog from a BroadcastReceiver, which isn't allowed. You can't show an AlertDialog from a BroadcastReceiver. Only activities can display dialogs.

You should do something else, have the BroadcastReceiver start on boot as you do and start an activity to show the dialog.

Add the following Activity to your application

public class AlertActivity extends Activity{

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        new AlertDialog.Builder(this)
            .setTitle("OK")
            .setMessage("OK")
            .setPositiveButton("ㅇㅇ", null)
            .setCancelable(false)
            .show();
    }
}

Also don't forget to add the new activity to your manifest.

Then you just need to start the activity in your receiver

@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent)
{
    context.startService(new Intent(context, MainService.class));
    context.startActivity(new Intent(context, AlertActivity.class));
}
