In your onCreate method you can register a receiver like this:

 private BroadcastReceiver receiver;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){

 // your oncreate code should be

 IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter();
 filter.addAction("SOME_ACTION");
filter.addAction("SOME_OTHER_ACTION");

 receiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
 @Override
  public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
   //do something based on the intent's action
 }
 };
  registerReceiver(receiver, filter);
  }

Remember to run this in the onDestroy method:

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