Broadcast receiver with AIRPLANE_MODE not working with SDK 26

Normaly, I use a simple code to put a Toast when the user change the AIRPLANE_MODE, and it work using targetSdkVersion 25.

My AirPlaneModeReceiver :

    public class AirPlaneModeReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {

    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {

        Toast.makeText(context, "I receive a Broadcast", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

    }
}

The part of the Manifest where I declare my Receiver :

<receiver android:name=".AirPlaneModeReceiver">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.AIRPLANE_MODE"/>
            </intent-filter>
</receiver>

But when I change the target SDK version to targetSdkVersion 26, it's not working at all... Why ?

Solution

  • As per documentation:

    you should remove any broadcast receivers that are registered for implicit broadcast intents.

    see Section "Remove broadcast receivers from your manifest file"
