Register and Unregister any BroadcastReceiver

Here is an example which you can use to register and un-register ANY BroadcastReceiver using an Abstract class:

BaseClass:

public abstract class BaseReceiverActivity extends AppCompatActivity{

    private BroadCastReceiver receiver;
    private IntentFilter filter;

    public abstract BroadCastReceiver getReceiver();
    public abstract IntentFilter getFilter();

    @Override
    public void onStart(){
        super.onStart();
        configureReceiver()
        registerReceiver(receiver, filter);
    }

    @Override
    public void onStop(){
        super.onPause();
        unregisterReceiver(receiver);
    }

    private void registerMyReceiver(){        
        registerReceiver(receiver, filter);    
    }

    private void configureReceiver(){
         receiver = getReceiver();
         filter   = getFilter();
    }

}

Child class:

public class WifiScanner extends BaseReceiverActivity{

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle sis){
         super.onCreate(sis);
         setContentView(R.layout.yourLayout);
    }

    @Override
    public BroadCastReceiver getReceiver(){
         return new YourReceiver();
    }

    @Override
    public IntentFilter getFilter(){
         return IntentFilter(WifiManager.SCAN_RESULTS_AVAILABLE_ACTION));
    }

}
