• The application framework

• The libraries and runtime

• The kernel

BroadCast Receiver
A broadcast receiver is a component that responds
to system-wide broadcast announcements. Many
broadcasts originate from the system—for example,
a broadcast announcing that the screen has turned
off, the battery is low, or a picture was captured.
Apps can also initiate broadcasts—for example, to
let other apps know that some data has been
downloaded to the device and is available for them to
use.
