A common mistake people make is to create multiple PendingIntent objects
with Intents that only vary in their "extra" contents, expecting to get a
different PendingIntent each time. This does *not* happen. The parts of the
Intent that are used for matching are the same ones defined by
Intent.filterEquals
.
If you use two Intent objects that are equivalent as per Intent.filterEquals
,
then you will get the same PendingIntent for both of them.

[android-developers] Re: How to detect if the PendingIntent already exists or not

[Sameer Sharma]

Hi Sir

I have implement the alarm manager in project. I have set the multiple 
alarm at same time. Suppose I have set the five alarms but 4 alarms has 
fired out of 5 or I have set 3 alarms but  2 alarms has fired. Can you give 
me some advice how to solve this problem?

CODE:

private void setAlarm(Calendar targetCal) {

// *change Request code
RQS_1 = (int) System.currentTimeMillis();

  // Note Declare AlarmReciever in Manifest otherwise Alarm will not 
work
// 
Intent intent = new Intent(getBaseContext(), AlarmReceiver.class);
intent.putExtra("ID", String.valueOf(insert_id));
intent.putExtra("Time", mTime);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(getBaseContext(), 
RQS_1, intent,0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) 
getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
// use 24*3600*1000 for repeating after 24//
alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP,targetCal.getTimeInMillis(), 
24 * 3600 * 1000, pendingIntent); 
//alarmManager.setInexactRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP,targetCal.getTimeInMillis(),
 
24 * 3600 * 1000, pendingIntent);
}

[android-developers] Re: How to detect if the PendingIntent already exists or not

[reda]

Hi ,

I've faced this problem and what I did is just creating the intent and
the pendingIntent the same manner I did the first time and now I can
cancel it.

Intent intentToFire = new Intent(Main.ACTION_GET_NEW_EGGS);
PendingIntent alarmPendingIntent =
PendingIntent.getBroadcast(getApplicationContext(), 0, intentToFire,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
alarmPendingIntent.cancel();

It just works for me but I want to hear from other if this will not
fail one day.

[Jeruliu]

Maybe i didn't make myself clearly.

I have no problem to set multiple PendingIntent into the AlarmManager,
my solution is to set a dummy action: intent.setAction(DUMMY);

But the question in this post is: I need to know if the specific
PendingIntent is active or not

I wish to display the PendingIntent status on my screen as active /
inactive

Re: [android-developers] Re: How to detect if the PendingIntent already exists or not

[Dianne Hackborn]

There isn't a way to do this; you will need to keep track of it yourself.

Also I would recommend keeping track of which item you have enabled in your
app, and only setting a single alarm for the next item in time, instead of
having multiple in the alarm manager.  See the alarm clock app for an
example.

[android-developers] Re: How to detect if the PendingIntent already exists or not

[Jeruliu]

Thanks for the reply.

1. Ok, i will try too keep track myself, whenever the phone reboot, i
will set all pending intents into the alarm manager, then remember the
active/inactive status.

2. Sometimes i have to create multiple pending intents, for instance i
need to trigger some operation at 8am, 12pm and 3pm everyday. In this
case is it possible to set only a single alarm?

Sure. Set an alarm for 8am. When it goes off, set an alarm for 12pm.
When it goes off, set an alarm for 3pm. When it goes off, set an alarm

Your PendingIntent is run. Whatever component is started via that
