As I said, I am pretty sure this is a sticky broadcast, meaning that the
contents of the last broadcast are remembered by the system.

android-developers is the appropriate place), are you trying to port to some
hardware (if so android-porting), or something else?

Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to
provide private support, and so won't reply to such e-mails.  All such
questions should be posted on public forums, where I and others can see and
answer them.
