I'd been having some weird issues with AlarmManager seemingly not firing my alarms when the device is asleep. I'm using the alarm to start a service and I was acquiring my wake lock in onStart(). I tried acquiring the lock in onCreate() instead, and that seems to have solved the problem. I know that doesn't help you with your BroadcastReceiver, but perhaps you can rework your app to use a Service instead? -- Jon --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
