Hi all, I noticed that AlarmManager does not always seem to wake the device correctly when using types RTC_WAKEUP or ELAPSED_REALTIME_WAKEUP. It seems like whatever intent was pending is triggered later after the Menu key is hit.
I realize you need to hold a wakelock for any activity fired after the initial pending intent event - but I thought at least the pending intent should execute without a wakelock being required? All I want to do is set off a Notification when the alarm is complete - nothing else. It does seem to work 90% of the time without an issue, just not 100% of the time. Has anyone else noticed this? Here is a summarized version of what I'm doing: //in main activity, set alarm for some time in future myPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(myContext, 0, new Intent(myContext, MyReceiver.class), 0); myAM = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE); myAM.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, getTriggerTime(), myPendingIntent); //in MyReceiver.class, onReceiver(), trigger notification NotificationManager myNM = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE); Notification notif = new Notification(); ..setup notification to play alarm, vibrate etc. myNM.notify(MYNOTIFICATION_ID, notif); Thanks, Adam --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
