Answer 1

    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        if (intent.getAction().equals("android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED")) {
            context.startService(new Intent(context, BootService.class));
        }
    }

and next you should implements BootService class extended Service

Answer 2

I've done something similiar, but I was starting activity. Here is how I done it:

In Manifest:

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

In Java code:

public class BootUpReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        PendingIntent i = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, new Intent(
                context,MainActivity.class),
                Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
        AlarmManager mgr = (AlarmManager) context
                .getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
        mgr.set(AlarmManager.RTC, System.currentTimeMillis() + 20000, i);
    }
}

Your code seems to be correct, but try using PendingIntent ;) Hope it helps you

Answer 3

try like this....

@Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Intent i = new Intent(context, BootingActivity.class);
        i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
        context.startActivity(i);
    }

in manifest file...

 <receiver android:name=".BroadcastReceiver">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED"></action>
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"></category>
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>

Answer 4

You are not calling the Service.

Code like this.

Intent objIntent= new Intent(context, MyService.class);
context.startService(objIntent);
