How to know Application Installation is completed in android?

I want to create such a service which start when any new application is installing on android device. so how to know any application getting installed in android device, is there any Intent event is fired ?

Solution 
  • <receiver android:name="r1">

<intent-filter>

<action android:name="android.intent.action.PACKAGE_ADDED"/> <data android:scheme="package"/>

</intent-filter> 

</receiver>

    you can try this broadcast receiver....

    also go through

    "android.intent.action.PACKAGE_REMOVED"
"android.intent.action.PACKAGE_REPLACED"

    might come in handy...
