Call an activity method from a BroadcastReceiver class

by

Create the BroadcastReceiver dynamically:

In your BroadcastReceiver class define class member:

YourMainActivity yourMain = null;

and method: 

setMainActivityHandler(YourMainActivity main){
yourMain = main;
}

from your MainActivity do:

private YourBroadcastReceiverClassName yourBR = null;
yourBR = new YourBroadcastReceiverClassName();
    yourBR.setMainActivityHandler(this);    
    IntentFilter callInterceptorIntentFilter = new           IntentFilter("android.intent.action.ANY_ACTION");
    registerReceiver(yourBR,  callInterceptorIntentFilter);

finally, when yourBR.onReceive is fired you can call:

yourMain.methodOfMainActivity();
