In my application, I am trying to start a service using AlarmManager.
The code for AlarmManager is below:
public class Main extends Activity {
...
@Override
protected void onStart() {
super.onStart();
Intent intent = new Intent(this, MyService.class);
PendingIntent pintent = PendingIntent.getService(this, 0, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarm.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, SystemClock.elapsedRealtime() + 5*1000, 5*1000, pintent);
}
...
}
below is the Service Class:
public class MyService extends Service {
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
Toast.makeText(this, "MyService.onCreate()", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0) {
return null;
}
@Override
public void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
}
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
@Override
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {
super.onStart(intent, startId);
Toast.makeText(this, "MyService.onStart()", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
@Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
Toast.makeText(this, "MyService.onStartCommand()", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
and the Android Manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.max.android.myapp"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk

android:targetSdkVersion="21" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
<activity
android:name="com.max.android.myapp.Main"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
<service android:enabled="true" android:name="com.max.android.myapp.SubsService" />
</manifest>
running adb shell dumpsys alarm I can see my alarm:
RTC_WAKEUP #0: Alarm{41878860 type 0 com.max.android.myapp}
type=0 when=+3s954ms repeatInterval=5000 count=1
operation=PendingIntent{41878850: PendingIntentRecord{41878760 com.max.android.myapp startService}}
But MyService is never started. Why is this not working?
