The system doesn't generally install .apks during boot, and doesn't start
any application services during boot (there are a handful of system services
that it starts during boot, but these look nothing like what you would think
about a service from the application perspective).  The only thing system
boot does in relation to starting third party apps is:

- Start an intent for the home activity (which the package manager will
resolve to a concrete activity as appropriate).
- Once home is started, send the BOOT_COMPLETED broadcast to all receivers
that have a match in their manifest.
