private void setLocationSendingAlarm() {

    AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
    Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), GoogleMapService.class);
    intent.putExtra("locationSendingAlarm", true);
    PendingIntent   pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getService(this, 987654321, intent,0);
    try {
        alarmManager.cancel(pendingIntent);
    } catch (Exception e) {

    }
    int timeForAlarm=60000;


    alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis()+50000, timeForAlarm, pendingIntent);
