When exactly does an app receive an INSTALL_REFERRER broadcast from Android Market? Can I safely assume it’s received before Application.onCreate() is called? I want to make sure my app doesn’t dispatch any tracking to Google Analytics before it is received. Put another way, where is the best place to put my tracking code? I am only tracking installs.

Thanks in advance…

    It is guaranteed that Application.onCreate() will be called before any broadcast is received.

    I want to make sure my app doesn’t dispatch any tracking to Google Analytics before it is received. Put another way, where is the best place to put my tracking code?

    Presumably in an IntentService triggered by your INSTALL_REFERER BroadcastReceiver, if you do not want to do the work before the broadcast is received.
