Android: Event ACTION_POWER_CONNECTED is not sent to my BroadcastReceiver

Issue

I want to do something after the the phone is put into charger. So I created ChargingOnReciever:

public class ChargingOnReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver { 
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { 
        context.startActivity(someActivity);
        Log.d(TAG, "Phone was connected to power");
    } 
} 

and I want my receiver to listen to android.intent.action.ACTION_POWER_CONNECTED, so I put this into manifest:

<reciever android:name=".ChargingOnReceiver"
          android:enabled="true"
          android:exported="true">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.ACTION_POWER_CONNECTED" />
    </intent-filter>
</reciever>

But ChargingOnReceiver is apparently not started when I put my G1 to charger (connect to my notebook via USB cable). Any help is much appreciated.

Solution

It's receiver, not reciever! It took me 5 hours to find this stupid bug. I think that the Android Eclipse plugin should do some syntax checking in the manifest xml.
