STATUS_PAUSED won't call onReceive() in DownloadManager

Question

I used DownloadManager to download a file from server, I expect when the network is not connected to internet I receive STATUS_PAUSED in BroadcastReceiver. But it doesn't call onReceive().

downloadReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
       // ...
    }
}

registerReceiver(downloadReceiver,
    new IntentFilter(DownloadManager.ACTION_DOWNLOAD_COMPLETE));

Answer 1

You're filtering for the ACTION_DOWNLOAD_COMPLETE action, your receiver will not receive any other broadcasts.

Moreover, STATUS_PAUSED is not a broadcast.

It's the status of a particular download managed by the DownloadManager, which you can query.

For example:

DownloadManager dm = (DownloadManager) getSystemService(DOWNLOAD_SERVICE);
DownloadManager.Query query = new DownloadManager.Query();

query.setFilterById(idsToQuery);
query.setFilterByStatus(DownloadManager.STATUS_PAUSED);

Cursor cursor = dm.query(query);

if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
    // do whatever you would like with the result
}
