Android onReceive not called -

i'm trying follow example: what correct way sharing data among appwidgetprovider , remoteviewsservice.remoteviewsfactory

as such, have remoteviewsfactory has this:

@override public void ondatasetchanged() {     // subsequent calls data.     newsgetter.updatelistfeed(null, new newsgetter.onupdatelistfeedfinishedlistener() {         @override         public void onupdatelistfeedfinished(volleyerror error) {             //async return here volley              intent widgetupdateintent = new intent(newswidgetbase.feed_updated);             widgetupdateintent.putextra(appwidgetmanager.extra_appwidget_id, appwidgetid);             localbroadcastmanager.getinstance(context).sendbroadcast(widgetupdateintent);         }     });      log.e(tag, "******************************** ondatasetchanged provider"); } 

then have appwidgetprovider has this:

@override public void onreceive(context context, intent intent) {      final string action = intent.getaction();      if (appwidgetmanager.action_appwidget_update.equals(action)) {         log.e("widgetbase", "******************************** onreceive action_appwidget_update");     } else if (feed_updated.equals(action)) {         log.e("widgetbase", "******************************** onreceive feed_updated");          appwidgetmanager appwidgetmanager = appwidgetmanager.getinstance(context);         int appwidgetid = intent.getintextra(appwidgetmanager.extra_appwidget_id,                 appwidgetmanager.invalid_appwidget_id);         updateappwidget(context, appwidgetmanager, appwidgetid);     }      super.onreceive(context, intent); } 

and in manifest:

    <receiver android:name=".widgets.a">         <intent-filter>             <action android:name="android.appwidget.action.appwidget_update" />             <action android:name="com.myapp.feed_updated" />         </intent-filter>          <meta-data             android:name="android.appwidget.provider"             android:resource="@xml/abc" />     </receiver> 

i debugger log action_appwidget_update, own intent broadcast, never fires onreceive (breakpoint never hit). see i'm doing wrong?

for own intent broadcast work, have register broadcastreceiver programmatically. register receiver

localbroadcastmanager.getinstance(this).registerreceiver(yourwidgetreceiver, new intentfilter("your_intent_action")); 

and send broadcast as

intent intent = new intent("your_intent_action"); localbroadcastmanager.getinstance(getapplicationcontext()).sendbroadcast(intent) 

;

hope helps.
