Answer 1

You have to add your receiver into AndroidManifest.xml file under tag. Please check it.

Answer 2

register you receiver in manifest file

  <receiver android:name=".AppInstalled">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.PACKAGE_INSTALL" />
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.PACKAGE_ADDED" />
        <data android:scheme="package"/>
    </intent-filter>
</receiver>
