Answer 1

You are declaring BeaconsBroadcast as a BroadcastReceiver but are using startService(i) to invoke it which is causing the issue.
You need to use the sendBroadcast(i) function to send a broadcast to a BroadcastReceiver. Also Since you have set android:exported="false" for BroadcastReceiver use

LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(Context context).sendBroadcast(Intent)
