Hi, No, it's definitely skipping it because the intent is launched. Isn't that strange? Seems like broadcast receivers behave somewhat oddly in general, like when I was sending it a parcel instead of a bundle and it would not run properly.
I had to move the alarm setter code into the launched intent to get it to run. Seems really strange.
