I'm developing an Android app to collect data from an Android Wear. A WearableListenerService
is used in the handheld device to receive data from the watch via Data API.
But I noticed that if the app in handheld device is forcibly stopped, either from Settings -> Apps or by adb
during development, while the app in wearable is still running, it won't be able to receive data again even it's manually restarted.
This won't happen if the wearable is not running the app.
To restart capturing the data in handheld, I have to stop Google Play Services
and re-launch my app.
My WearableListenerService
:
public class WearableSensorListener extends WearableListenerService {
public static final String SENSOR_RESULT = "minimal_intent_service.result";
public static final String SENSOR_MESSAGE = "minimal_intent_service.message";
private static final String DATA_API_PATH = "/wearable-sensor";
// private GoogleApiClient googleApiClient;
private LocalBroadcastManager localBroadcastManager = LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this);
@Override
public void onDataChanged(DataEventBuffer dataEvents) {
Log.i(this.getClass().toString(), "Got data at " + System.currentTimeMillis());
for (DataEvent dataEvent : dataEvents) {
Log.i(this.getClass().toString(), "Got event: " + dataEvent.toString());
if (dataEvent.getType() == DataEvent.TYPE_CHANGED) {
String path = dataEvent.getDataItem().getUri().getPath();
if (path.equals(DATA_API_PATH)) {
DataMap dataMap = DataMapItem.fromDataItem(dataEvent.getDataItem()).getDataMap();
int type = dataMap.getInt("TYPE");
long time = dataMap.getLong("TIME");
float[] data = dataMap.getFloatArray("DATA");
String message = String.format(Locale.UK, "TYPE: %d, TIME: %d, DATA: %s",
type,
time,
Arrays.toString(data));
showSensorResult(message);
}
}
}
}
private void showSensorResult(String message) {
Intent intent = new Intent(SENSOR_RESULT);
if (message != null)
intent.putExtra(SENSOR_MESSAGE, message);
localBroadcastManager.sendBroadcast(intent);
}
}
AndroidManifest.xml
in handheld:
<service
android:name=".WearableSensorListener"
android:enabled="true"
android:exported="true">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.google.android.gms.wearable.DATA_CHANGED"/>
<data android:host="*"
android:scheme="wear"
android:pathPrefix="/wearable-sensor"/>
</intent-filter>
</service>
It seems the listener won't be cleared after the app crash/stop. Is there any workaround to handle this?
