Android BroadcastReceiver not triggered -

there lot of questions related topic. cannot run on device 4.2.1 on emulator 5.0 working fine.:

here manifest:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="com.example.bootservice" android:versioncode="1" android:versionname="1.0" >  <uses-sdk     android:minsdkversion="10"     android:targetsdkversion="21" />  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.internet" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.access_network_state" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.receive_boot_completed" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.write_external_storage" />  <application     android:allowbackup="true"     android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"     android:label="@string/app_name"     android:theme="@style/apptheme" >     <receiver         android:name=".mybroadcastreceiver"         android:enabled="true"         android:label="mybroadcastreceiver" >         <intent-filter android:priority="1001" >             <action android:name="android.intent.action.boot_completed" />         </intent-filter>     </receiver>      <activity         android:name=".mainactivity"         android:label="@string/app_name" >         <intent-filter>             <action android:name="android.intent.action.main" />              <category android:name="android.intent.category.launcher" />         </intent-filter>     </activity>      <service android:name=".pingservice" >     </service>     <service android:name=".updateservice" >     </service>      <receiver android:name=".onbootreceiver" >         <intent-filter android:priority="1001" >             <action android:name="android.intent.action.boot_completed" />         </intent-filter>     </receiver> </application> </manifest> 

i tried 2 receivers: none of them working. here 1 of receivers should write logfile sd, working fine launcher activity:

 public class mybroadcastreceiver extends broadcastreceiver { // restart service every 30 seconds private static final long repeat_time = 1000 * 10;  @override public void onreceive(context context, intent intent) {     log.e("mybroadcastreceiver", "broadcastreceiver");     appendlog("mybroadcastreceiver   broadcastreceiver \n");     alarmmanager service = (alarmmanager) context             .getsystemservice(context.alarm_service);     intent = new intent(context, updateservice.class);     pendingintent pending = pendingintent.getbroadcast(context, 0, i,             pendingintent.flag_cancel_current);     calendar cal = calendar.getinstance();      cal.add(calendar.second, 30);      service.setinexactrepeating(alarmmanager.rtc_wakeup,             cal.gettimeinmillis(), repeat_time, pending);      log.wtf("mybroadcastreceiver", "alarm went off");    }  public static void appendlog(string text) {     file logfile = new file("sdcard/logfile.txt");     if (!logfile.exists()) {         try {             logfile.createnewfile();         } catch (ioexception e) {             // todo auto-generated catch block             e.printstacktrace();         }     }     try {         // bufferedwriter performance, true set append file flag         bufferedwriter buf = new bufferedwriter(new filewriter(logfile,                 true));         buf.append(text);         buf.newline();         buf.close();     } catch (ioexception e) {         // todo auto-generated catch block         e.printstacktrace();     } } } 

i cannot see error. does? ps app started once, this: http://commonsware.com/blog/2011/07/05/boot-completed-regression.html covered.
