I am using sticky broadcast in my application and I have included the following permission in my manifest.



uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BROADCAST_STICKY"


The app is working absolutely fine when installed normally in personal profile. The same app when installed only in work profile crashes because of security exception. If the app is installed in both work profile and personal profile then it works fine in both profiles.




  • Only Personal Profile : Works fine

  • Personal Profile & Work Profile :
    Works fine

  • Only Work Profile: Crash


The crash only happens in Android Pie.



The API which give exception is context.removeStickyBroadcast()



AndroidRuntime: Caused by: java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: unbroadcastIntent() from pid=4015, uid=1010232 requires android.permission.BROADCAST_STICKY

    FWIW, sticky broadcasts were deprecated a few years ago.

  • Yeah but its a piece of legacy code which we have not refactored as yet. The thing is that it works fine in personal profile with the same code.
