import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class MyReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {

    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context arg0, Intent arg1) {
        Toast.makeText(arg0, "BroadCast Receiver", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        arg0.startService(new Intent("com.example.forgetmenot.BirthdayService"));

回答1:

1. create receiver in Manifest

<receiver android:name=".MyReceiver" >
    <intent-filter>
         <action android:name="android.intent.action.DATE_CHANGED" />
    </intent-filter>
  </receiver>

2. create BroadcastReceiver class

public class MyReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
       @Override
          public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
             if (intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_DATE_CHANGED)) {
                Log.e("", "ACTION_DATE_CHANGED received");
             }
         }
    }

100% working
