I have made my own lock screen using the below link: https://stackoverflow.com/a/28603790/1083093 .

public class LockScreenReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {

    @Override
    public void onReceive(final Context context, Intent intent) {

     // My Implementation ---------- >

   }

}

What I am trying to achieve: I want to hide the top task bar and bottom navigation bar in android

What i tried:

I tried to use Immersive mode from this post but since getWindow() is not accessable there & since it is not an activity, I am not able to do that.
I also tried casting from Activity activity = (Activity) context; but it dosen't work .

How to achieve this ?

You have context in onReceive method why don't you use it – Vivek Mishra Jan 05 '16 at 05:03
Using the context its not possible to get the `getWindow()` method even though I cast it. – Devrath Jan 05 '16 at 05:04

Is your application in foreground when the `onReceive` is called? – miensol Jan 05 '16 at 05:50
