So, I have an AppWidget that am working on and am wondering if I am expecting something it isn't supposed to do, or if I am doing something wrong. Basically, I have an AppWidget that spawns a background thread to retrieve data (a la Jeff Sharkey's Sky widget) but what I am finding is that while the phone is in "sleep" mode (the screen is off) I am not getting any UI updates on the default home screen. I have logging in several parts of the update service and have confirmed that the updates themselves are being run, but when I turn the screen back on and go the the Widget on my home screen it still has the old data. I've tried simply waiting a little, I've tried doing other things and then going back the the Home screen, it never updates despite continued requests from the background thread until I manually refresh it. My manual refresh and update service run the exact same functions.
In my update alarm I have the following: AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager)getSystemService (Context.ALARM_SERVICE); alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, (System.currentTimeMillis() + updateFrequency), pendingIntent); Any help would be appreciated.
