Unable to trigger Broadcast SMS receiver in MIUI Rom

I have tested my code on Emulator as well as CM9 ROM. Everything works fine. But when I run my app on MIUI v3.6.28 Android Version 4.1.2 it doesn't trigger the SMS receiver.

I searched around on StackOverflow but couldnt find suitable answer except one mentioning about Phone manufacturers implementing internal classes themselves to avoid such behaviour. And MIUI being Xiami ROM maybe that is true. But then how would Go SMS and Handcent SMS work on these devices ?

    This might solve the problem. I did not check it since I have moved to cm again for testing . but seems to solve exactly what I need. And description makes sense.

    Miui takes preference and takes away the SMS before any other app can receive it.
