Showing all broadcast events on Android

Issue

is it somehow possible to show all broadcast events/intents that are triggered in android? I just want to know if I can quickly figure out if an application is using intents/broadcasts I can hook into. For most of the stock android applications I can read the source but is time consuming.

Solution

List all historical broadcasts and registered broadcast receivers with the following terminal command:

$ adb shell dumpsys activity broadcasts
