Android: Broadcast ACTION_MY_PACKAGE_REPLACED never received

My app runs a service which is terminated when the device reboots or the app is reinstalled (updated). I've added two broadcast receivers to catch those events - BOOT_COMPLETED and ACTION_MY_PACKAGE_REPLACED. The ACTION_MY_PACKAGE_REPLACED receiver just doesn't seem to work. Here's what I have: AndroidManifest.xml: ``` <receiver android:name=".RebootReceiver"> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED"/> </intent-filter> </receiver> <receiver android:name=".ReInstallReceiver"> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.ACTION_MY_PACKAGE_REPLACED"/> </intent-filter> </receiver> ``` RebootReceiver: ``` public class RebootReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver { @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { Logg.d("Reboot completed. Restarting service"); context.startService(new Intent(context, MyService.class)); } } ``` ReInstallReceiver: ``` public class ReInstallReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver { @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { Logg.d("App Upgraded or Reinstalled. Restarting service"); context.startService(new Intent(context, MyService.class)); } } ``` Running minSdk=16; Testing on Galaxy S3 running KitKat. Testing success by checking if my service is running in Settings/Applications, which it does on reboot, but not reinstall. I've taken into account notes from the following, which say that in Android Studio 1.0+, manifest mergers mean I can't combine two receivers into one class. See ACTION_MY_PACKAGE_REPLACED not received and Android manifest merger fails for receivers with same name but different content
