in my case, i used tutorial on net like this link

http://florent-dupont.blogspot.fr/2015/01/android-shell-command-dpm-device-policy.html

at this time, non of example and tutorial not mentioned how to create device_admin xml file(or i couldn't find it). so you need create a folder under res with "xml" name. and then, you must create a xml file with "device_admin" name. in this xml file just add this tag:

<device-admin>
</device-admin>

Just check your "AndroidManifest.xml" once and make sure you have mentioned receiver's attributes value properly.
