Simply have your activity handle the key event itself, and delete your
service and your boot receiver. Having a service running all of the
time is something users generally dislike, and the service is not
helping you, since the activity is perfectly capable of handling your
current business logic with respect to the key event.

If you are somehow thinking that you will have something "in the
background" that can respond to key events like this, that does not
work. A couple of key events will get broadcast if the foreground
activity does not consume the event (e.g., ACTION_CAMERA_BUTTON).
Otherwise, key events are for the use of the foreground activity and
the OS.
