I also have a query regarding this. I have two questions: 1) Suppose, i want my service to go into deep sleep initially. If my phone receives an incoming VoIP call (over the underlying IP connectivity, which may be WiFi), then i wish to start an activity, and alert one of my services to handle the incoming call. Is there an alarm for which i can register, for implementing this use case ?
2) My second question is, that is it possible for me to poll for the status of Data connection states of the Android device using the states defined for TelephonyManager ? If i wish to be notified somehow, when the data connection is lost, connected or suspended etc asynchronously, how do i go about it ? Or will i need to spawn a background thread that checks for the data status constantly and notifies my application if any major event takes place ? Thanks in advance..
