Suggestions:
- detect the power down and clean your app up so the device can sleep
correctly (i.e. reduce the alarm frequency)
- don't use the alarm, poll the tick or rt clock to trigger your app
(depends on what your app does)
- reset the auto off timer periodically to prevent the device from sleeping
while your app is doing something time-sensitive. (don't alter the auto-off
setting)
Obliviously I'm only guessing since you don't describe what your app does
that requires frequent alarms.
