i wanted to check the actual time every 5 mins in a service and mute or unmute the phone depending on the time. earlier i tried to use a while(true) with thread.sleep(300000) at the end, but it crashed always with a ANR, so i tried to use a timer task but now it crashes right after the line AudioManager audioManager = (AudioManager)this.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE); with an NullPointerException
