Well you are right that this will drain the battery pretty heavily. At the moment I am using the broadcast which gets fired every n seconds and gets caught by the receiver which handles the notifications in its onReceive method. But well the problem remains. I haven't found a possibility to get the sound noitification working during the wake lock.
If someone has got a solution for that problem I would love hearing about it. :) On 25 Apr., 17:17, Mark Murphy <[email protected]> wrote: > code_android_festival_way wrote: > > What do you mean exactly by that?
