Broadcastreceiver + Sms_Received

BroadcastReceiver + SMS_RECEIVED

You would also need to specify a uses-permission in your manifest file:

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

BroadcastReceiver SMS_Received not working on new devices

Okay the problem was resolved.
The issue did not reside with priorities, but with my phone being a Nexus 6P (a.k.a. API 23).

Providing permissions in the manifest.xml alone wasn't enough and I had to add code for runtime permission request. See Android documentation for runtime permissions

Add this code to your MainActiviy:

ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, 
            new String[]{Manifest.permission.RECEIVE_SMS},
            MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_SMS_RECEIVE);

Define this at the top of MainActivity Class:

private int MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_SMS_RECEIVE = 10;

And also add this override:

@Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, @NonNull String[] permissions, @NonNull int[] grantResults) {
    super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
    if (requestCode == MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_SMS_RECEIVE) {
        // YES!!
        Log.i("TAG", "MY_PERMISSIONS_REQUEST_SMS_RECEIVE --> YES");
    }
}

Android : BroadcastReceiver SMS_RECEIVED

The action that you match in your BroadcastReceiver should be android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED, not just the last part.

SMS received broadcastReceiver is not called when app is not running

Full working demo Runtime Permissions

Change the permission name which you want to get at runtime.

private String permission = Manifest.permission.RECEIVE_SMS;

Those permssions which you want to get at runtime should also be declared in
manifest too.

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    private Context context;
    private Button button;
    private static final int REQUEST_RUNTIME_PERMISSION = 123;
    private String permission = Manifest.permission.RECEIVE_SMS;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button);
        button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override

            public void onClick(View v) {
                if (CheckPermission(MainActivity.this, permission)) {
                    // you have permission go ahead
                    YouCanReadContactNow();
                } else {
                    // you do not have permission go request runtime permissions
                    RequestPermission(MainActivity.this, permission, REQUEST_RUNTIME_PERMISSION);
                }
            }
        });
    }

    private void YouCanReadContactNow() {
    }

    @Override
    public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int permsRequestCode, String[] permissions, int[] grantResults) {

        switch (permsRequestCode) {
            case REQUEST_RUNTIME_PERMISSION: {
                if (grantResults.length > 0
                        && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
                    // you have permission go ahead
                    YouCanReadContactNow();
                } else {
                    // you do not have permission show toast.
                }
                return;
            }
        }
    }

    public void RequestPermission(Activity thisActivity, String Permission, int Code) {
        if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(thisActivity,
                Permission)
                != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(thisActivity,
                    Permission)) {
            } else {
                ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(thisActivity,
                        new String[]{Permission},
                        Code);
            }
        }
    }

    public boolean CheckPermission(Context context, String Permission) {
        if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(context,
                Permission) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            return true;
        } else {
            return false;
        }

SMS Broadcast Receiver not called on Android 6

Are you using a default messaging app with "Disable other apps" flag on?

Please see this:

"android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED" not working on my device (HTC Wildfire) - how to debug?

Edit:

Since you are using Android 6, you should use the new permissions model. Check this out:
