I am rather new to android and I am attempting an alarm clock app. I am starting an activity through an AlarmManager which works fine as long as the phone is awake. When the phone is asleep it appears to run the code properly and then it runs the onStop function closing the activity. I have tried various combinations of WakeLock and Window flags with no avail.
This does however work on an older phone (2.3) if that helps. Any insight is appreciated.
Here is code for the Alarm activity:

I have figured out what was going on. It was not a wakelock issue. The issue is that, for whatever reason the onStop function was (is still) being called when the phone wakes from sleeping. Since I had a finish() function running it was killing the activity. I placed the code in the onStop override so that the alarm will stop if the user hits the back or home button so I will need to address that unless someone can enlighten me on why the onStop is called an how to avoid it. Thanks
