I just wanted to add something now. After reading through the mailing list I have tried to get the whole thing working with the PendingIntent sending a broadcast every 30 seconds which gets caught by a broadcast receiver. This broadcast receiver starts the notifications (vibrate and sound) in its onReceive method. (without starting an extra service) BUT I got the whole problems again. As a maximum I am getting the vibrate notification. Even when I acquire a partial wake lock at the beginning of "onReceive" and release it at the end I am getting these errors. As soon as I plug in the USB cable or light up the screen everything is going back to normal.
To be honest I don't really know how to handle this correctly. What am I doing wrong? I'm getting crazy about these wake lock errors. :( On 25 Apr., 11:46, code_android_festival_way <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello. > > I got a problem with my sound notifications not being sent while the > screen is off and the device is unplugged from the charger. > > Here is the workflow: > > - Alarm Service gets fired every 30 seconds (well the timer can be > adjusted) > - The alarm starts a service which fires a sound and vibrate > notification > - The service holds a PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK acquired in onCreate and > released in onDestroy > > Here is the result of the whole thing: > > - Both notifications get fired as long as the screen is on > - Both notifications get fired as long as the device is plugged into > the charger (via USB) even when the screen is off (done by pressing > the power button) > - BUT only the vibrate notification gets fired when the screen is off > (user pressed the power button once) > - When pressing the power button once again and the screen is on again > the notifications are back to normal behaviour and both get fired > > Could someone tell me why the sound notification ignores the wake lock > and sits down in silence?
