MediaButtonIntentReceiver not working in Android 4.0+

by

It looks like your broadcast receiver is an inner class to your service? If so, make your broadcast receiver static and in the manifest do this:

<receiver android:name="MyOuterClass$MediaButtonIntentReceiver" android:enabled="true">
    <intent-filter android:priority="2147483647" >
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON" />
    </intent-filter>
</receiver>

In Android 3.0+ you must use registerMediaButtonEventReceiver to register the receiver. This uses the AndroidManifest for the IntentFilter. The reason it works in 2.x is because you were registering it with this.registerReceiver() which registered the receiver without the AndroidManifest.
