Receive broadcast even when app is not running

[mushahidg...@gmail.com]

Problem: My application is listening for broadcast ACTION_APPLICATION_RESTRICTIONS_CHANGED, this action start to receive when i launch the application for the first time after app is installed

Note: Broadcast is registered explicitly in the background service and app is signed with platform keys

Questions: 

1: How can i receive the broadcast even if i do not launch the app for the first time?

2: What changes i requires in the AOSP to make it work ?

Thanks!!
