Dear forum, I wrote a service which continuously reports data to a remote server via HTTP. As a service should do it keeps working even when the Android is turned off (by a short press on the power button) and is not powered externally. This works fine on a Motorola Milestone (Android 2.1) until the battery holds but not on neither HTC Tattoo nor HTC Magic (both Android 1.6). On the 1.6 devices the service stops working after about 30 minutes for 30 minutes. Then it seems to work for 5 minutes again and stops again for 30 minutes and so on. I seems that there is some (undocumented?) power management acting which prevents to keep the Android running continuously when softly turned off. When I press a button and turn off again the service is working immediately for 30 minutes and the trickles starts again as described above.
My questions are: 1) Is this behavior documented? 3) Is this special for Android 1.6 or just for HTC devices 4) How to turn off this feature?
