I did this but it does not work on android 9. only works on old versions. – sabrey Feb 13 '20 at 10:58

You could do this in several ways:
- Have your app act as launcher ( set launcher declarations in manifest and set it as default launcher)
- Modify your default launcher (e.g. Launcher3) to start the app when the launcher starts.
- Modify SystemUI app to start your app when it first starts.
- Modify SystemServer or one of the system services ( e.g. ActivityManagerService ) to start your app when the correct boot phase is reached (e.g. PHASE_BOOT_COMPLETED )

thank you. this helped me a lot. does modifying system server breaks gsm certification rules ? – sabrey Feb 23 '20 at 21:53
