Android intent-filter for .kml files not working

I am trying to accept ACTION_SEND for .kml files. Here's the manifest code:

<intent-filter>
  <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
  <data android:mimeType="application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml"/>
  <data android:pathPattern=".*\\.kml"/>
  <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEAFULT" />
</intent-filter>

The app builds fine, but I tried two methods to click on .kml file: 1) test.kml attachment in Google Mail app. 2) Using a file browser, and using it to click on file name, and click on Send. It only shows Google Earth and Gmail as the receiving apps.

I tried with and without the pathPattern, no change, still does not receive any intents. I also tried testing .txt files, using mimeType="text/*" and then my app showed up for .txt files. It just seems that the mimeType for .kml is not being recognized.

Has anyone successfully received intents for .kml files to launch their app? Any ideas?

Is it because you mispelled DEFAULT? (DEAFULT)
