After upgrading my application I would like the service to restart if it was running before. Is there any way to do this? I didn't see any Broadcast Intents that I could register for in the manifest.

A:
You are right that you should be using a BroadcastReceiver.
Have a look at this question about restarting Alarms on upgrade; it shows how you can use the ACTION_PACKAGE_REPLACED Intent to see when an application is upgraded.
