I have the following code, I expect that this alarm invokes my Service regardless of the state of the phone. Even if its in sleep mode, I need it to access the internet and make some network calls.
Why doesn't it work when the phone is in sleep mode ?
Alarm Manager
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cal.add(Calendar.SECOND, 5);
AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
Intent notifyintent = new Intent(this, OnAlarmReceiver.class);
notifyintent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
notifyintent.setAction("android.intent.action.NOTIFY");
PendingIntent notifysender = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, notifyintent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
am.setInexactRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, cal.getTimeInMillis(), 20 * 1000,
notifysender);
AlarmReceiver
public class OnAlarmReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
// PullPendingRequests.acquireStaticLock(context)
context.startService(new Intent(context, PullPendingRequests.class));
}
}
PullPendingRequests, PendingIntent
public class PullPendingRequests extends IntentService
public PullPendingRequests() {
super("PullPendingRequests");
me = this ;
}
@Override
final protected void onHandleIntent(Intent intent) {
Location myLocation;
Log.d("Taxeeta:PullPendingRequets", "Started Location");
if (God.locationManager == null)
God.locationManager = (LocationManager) getSystemService(LOCATION_SERVICE);
myLocation = God.locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
if (myLocation != null)
onLocationChanged(myLocation);
else {
God.notifications.setSpeedNotification();
}
Log.d("Taxeeta:PullPendingRequets", "Ended Location");
}

Edit : Should this work, it isn't for me ?
