How to restart Background service getting killed on redmi phone

Question

I have a service that should run in background.

I have applied solution from given link

START_STICKY does not work on Android KitKat

I am able to restart the service on all phones having android os jelly bean or kitkat.

But on Redmi (android os version 4.3) phone my service is still getting killed when I remove app from task manager and not restart again. How can I restart my service on Redmi phone.

I tried to restart service using AlarmManager.

private void StartLocationServiceByAlarmManager() {

    Calendar cur_cal = Calendar.getInstance();
    cur_cal.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
    cur_cal.add(Calendar.SECOND, 50);
    long backgroundServiceUpdateInterval = 0;


       Interval = 3 * 60 * 1000; // xyz

   // stopService(new Intent(this,cl));
    // Background sync service
    Intent mServiceIntent = new Intent(this, cl);
    mServiceIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_RECEIVER_FOREGROUND);
    PendingIntent pintent = PendingIntent.getService(this, 121,
            mServiceIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);

    AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);

    alarm.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, cur_cal.getTimeInMillis(),
            Interval, pintent);
}

Of course it is. Everything in the process gets killed. The methods you are referring to *might* result in it being automatically re-started fairly soon, but it will still be killed. Android simply does not support a way for 3rd party components to run permanently. — Chris Stratton, Apr 27 '15 at 14:48
@ChrisStratton, I am looking for a solution to restart service again when it is killed on red mi phone. I am able to restart service on all other phones. — Praveen Mishra, Apr 27 '15 at 14:53
So which solution did you try? Show you code and explain exactly what it does or doesn't accomplish. — Chris Stratton, Apr 27 '15 at 14:56

Setup MIUM security issues.

For MIUM 7.0 Security => Autostart => select apps that you want to run in background services => reboot

For MIUM 4.0 settings

MainActivity.class (start services)

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    Intent intent = new Intent(this, Your_IntentServices.class);

    startService(intent);
   }
}

Your_IntentServices.class (you could extends IntentService)

public class Your_IntentServices extends Service {

    @Override
    public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
        return null;
    }

Menifest (add service)

<manifest>
    <application>
    <service
        android:name=".Your_IntentServices"
        android:exported="false"/>
    </application>
</manifest>
