11-11 05:48:57.015 E/ActivityManager(20584): Attempt to launch receivers of broadcast intent Intent { act=android.intent.action.XXX (has extras) } before boot completion

11-11 05:48:57.015 E/System  (20584): java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot broadcast before boot completed

未开机完成前不能发广播，如果需要，Android专门提供了一个标志来处理这种情况：
FLAG_RECEIVER_REGISTERED_ONLY_BEFORE_BOOT
如，BatteryService.java中：
                        Intent statusIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_BATTERY_LOW);
                        statusIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_RECEIVER_REGISTERED_ONLY_BEFORE_BOOT);
                        mContext.sendBroadcastAsUser(statusIntent, UserHandle.ALL);

估计是Framework开发者也遇到过类似问题，所以才会设置这个标志，关于这个标志的解释：
    /**
     * If set, when sending a broadcast <i>before boot has completed</i> only
     * registered receivers will be called -- no BroadcastReceiver components
     * will be launched.  Sticky intent state will be recorded properly even
     * if no receivers wind up being called.  If {@link #FLAG_RECEIVER_REGISTERED_ONLY}
     * is specified in the broadcast intent, this flag is unnecessary.
     *
     * <p>This flag is only for use by system sevices as a convenience to
     * avoid having to implement a more complex mechanism around detection
     * of boot completion.
     *
     * @hide
     */
    public static final int FLAG_RECEIVER_REGISTERED_ONLY_BEFORE_BOOT = 0x04000000;

经过验证，使用SystemProperties.get("sys.boot_completed", "0")的方法来判断开机时，即使其值为1（开机完成）仍然出现过“Cannot broadcast before boot completed”的问题，看来使用sys.boot_completed还是不行。
完。
