How to unregister BroadcastReceiver

Question

My app uses a BroadcastReceiver to get sms in this way:

SmsBR.java

public class SmsBR extends BroadcastReceiver {

    @Override
            


        

Answer 1

First remove receiver tag from manifest, then: for service :

@Override
public void onCreate() {


    myReceiver = new SmsBR();
    IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter();
    filter.addAction("android.intent.action.SMS_RECEIVED");// add any actions you want
    registerReceiver(myReceiver , filter);

 }

@Override
public void onDestroy() {
    super.onDestroy();
    if (myReceiver != null)
        unregisterReceiver(myReceiver);
}

for Activity:

public class MyActivity extends Activity {
  private final BroadcastReceiver mybroadcast = new SmsBR();

  public void onResume() {
    super.onResume();

    IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter();
    filter.addAction("android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED");
    registerReceiver(mybroadcast, filter);
  }

  public void onPause() {
    super.onPause();

    if (mybroadcast!= null)
       unregisterReceiver(mybroadcast);
  }
}
