title: How to send a custom broadcast action to receivers in manifest?
body: <p>MyReceiver.java</p>
  
  <pre><code>public class MyReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
      @Override
      public void onReceive(final Context context, final Intent intent) {
          Log.i("MyReceiver", "MyAction received!");
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In <code>AndroidManifest.xml</code> (under the <code>application</code> tag)</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;receiver android:name=".MyReceiver"&gt;
      &lt;intent-filter&gt;
          &lt;action android:name="MyAction" /&gt;
      &lt;/intent-filter&gt;
  &lt;/receiver&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>MainActivity.Java</p>
  
  <pre><code>public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
      @Override
      protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
          super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
          sendBroadcast(new Intent("MyAction"));
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><code>MyReceiver.onReceive</code> method is never triggered.
  Did I miss something?</p>
