Thanks Roman this was a good solution but I didn't want to force the
wake lock because of battery life. Instead I implemented the
AlarmManager but now I find out that I can't use security with pending
intents so there may be another rewrite in order.

Try to implement a service which is responsible for the data
connectivity. You want to make sure that you acquire a CPU wake lock,
that you are able to process the incoming data in your service.
Also check out the Wifi wake lock (http://developer.android.com/
reference/android/net/wifi/WifiManager.WifiLock.html)
You can check the status of your Wifi connection using a broadcast
receiver. Look for the state changes intents.

Hey Guys,
I am looking for some help. I am seeing something odd happening when
my device goes to sleep (Hero) when the device sleeps a process which
I have in the background seems to stop picking up data from it's
server. I can't work out of the service is going to sleep or if the
network connection is being dropped (3G WifI) can anyone shed some
light on the status of the phone when it goes into standby mode (the
user presses the power button)? What happens if a thread that is
currently sleeping wakes up and makes a network request for example?
Thanks in advance,
Tom
