Broadcast not accepted by Android system

[Zimbelstern]

Easer version
0.8.3-beta3

To Reproduce
Settings of Send Broadcast to reproduce the behavior:

• package: info.varden.hauk
• class: info.varden.hauk.global.Receiver
• action: info.varden.hauk.START_ALONE_THEN_MAKE_TOAST
• extras:
  • source: test (string)
  • requestLink: test (string)

Error log (warning) from BroadcastQueue:

Background execution not allowed: receiving Intent { act=info.varden.hauk.START_ALONE_THEN_MAKE_TOAST flg=0x10 } to info.varden.hauk/.global.Receiver

Sending broadcast through command isn't possible either:

am broadcast -a info.varden.hauk.START_ALONE_THEN_MAKE_TOAST -n info.varden.hauk/.global.Receiver -e source test -e requestLink test

results in the warning

Permission Denial: broadcast asks to run as user -2 but is calling from uid u0a189; this requires android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS_FULL or android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS

from ActivityManager.

Extra phone info:
Bug reproduced on

• Physical device running LineageOS 20
• Virtual device running Android 13.0

Additional context
The broadcast is addressed to Hauk.

I think I'm experiencing the same issue but with sending a broadcast to a different app (KeyMapper). I'm trying to send an intent to KeyMapper with the following settings:

I know it works from the KeyMapper side because I can trigger it with Termux's version on am:
am broadcast -a io.github.sds100.keymapper.ACTION_TRIGGER_KEYMAP_BY_UID --es io.github.sds100.keymapper.EXTRA_KEYMAP_UID 5344b82e-e269-473b-a19f-9c01cf4ed634

It seems the broadcast profile is broken

The problem is that applyDynamics method ignores target package and target class. Without the data the broadcast is implicit which is not allowed on Android 8+. Also extras are lost here.
A quick fix is as follows. I did not go any deeper though, so it may break some other stuff as the class is used in other Intent actions. I also add ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION permission. I think it is needed to start background location in controlled app.
