Can't register receiver dynamically at boot. I have no activity. And I do not want to register it in the service. Boot Receiver where I register another receiver: package zzz.zzz.zzz; import android.content.BroadcastReceiver; import android.content.Context; import android.content.Intent; import android.content.IntentFilter; public class AutoStart extends BroadcastReceiver { @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { if ((intent.getAction() != null) && (intent.getAction().equals("android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED"))) { IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON); filter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_OFF); BroadcastReceiver mReceiver = new ScreenReceiver(); context.registerReceiver(mReceiver, filter); } } } Receiver that I want to register: package zzz.zzz.zzz; import android.content.BroadcastReceiver; import android.content.Context; import android.content.Intent; public class ScreenReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver { @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { if (intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_OFF)) { // some code } if (intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON)) { // some code } } } LogCat: 10-12 15:03:45.849: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(240): Uncaught handler: thread Thread-8 exiting due to uncaught exception 10-12 15:03:45.859: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(240): android.content.ReceiverCallNotAllowedException: IntentReceiver components are not allowed to register to receive intents 10-12 15:03:45.859: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(240): at android.app.ReceiverRestrictedContext.registerReceiver(ApplicationContext.java:126) 10-12 15:03:45.859: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(240): at android.app
