Android BroadcastReceiver onReceive() called twice on android 4.0

Question

I faced to one problem on android 4.0.3 (on 4.1.2 it works fine). I have in my Activity BroadcastReceiver. When I send a broadcast, method onReceive() called always twice. P

Answer 1

For Xamarin developers:

I had a similar problem and for me it was because I registered the broadcast receiver in two places, one somewhere in my codes:

Android.App.Application.Context.RegisterReceiver(myReceiver, new IntentFilter("MY_INTENT_ACTION"));

And the other via Attributes:

[BroadcastReceiver(Enabled = true, Exported = true)]
[IntentFilter(new[] { "MY_INTENT_ACTION" })]
public class MyReceiver : BroadcastReceiver
{
    public override void OnReceive(Context context, Intent intent)
    {
    }
}

I removed Attributes and the problem solved!
