Here is a more type-safe solution:

• AndroidManifest.xml:

• CustomBroadcastReceiver.java

  public class CustomBroadcastReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver
  {
      @Override
      public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent)
      {
          // do work
      }
  }
  

• *.java

  Intent i = new Intent(context, CustomBroadcastReceiver.class);
  context.sendBroadcast(i);
