Android notification does not work when restarting after creating notification - java

As long as I don't turn the phone off (even if the application is closed), the forward notification that I have created with the alarm manager in my android-java mobile application does not have a problem. But when I restart the phone before the notification time comes, it doesn't work even if it's time for my notification. Can you please help? Thanks.

I added the following permissions to my manifest file but it didn't work

<receiver android:name=".MyReceiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
</intent-filter>
</receiver>

This is the expected behavior. If you turn off your device, all alarms are deleted. So, to workaround this issue, you must register for boot complete broadcast and re-schedule your alarm.
You can find more details on how to do it in the following question/answer:
does Alarm Manager persist even after reboot?

I think you can try use work manager, which will be executed by system.
WorkManager is the recommended solution for persistent work. Work is persistent when it remains scheduled through app restarts and system reboots. Because most background processing is best accomplished through persistent work, WorkManager is the primary recommended API for background processing.

Android - can't get broadcastreceiver to work

I try to launch a service at boot, but it never starts the service. I added <action android:name="android.intent.action.ACTION_POWER_CONNECTED"/> to the intent-filter of the receiver, but when I connect my android 8.0 phone to power, it also doesn't work.

Intent i = new Intent(context, MainService.class);
context.startService(i);
}
}

public static boolean isRunning = false;
#Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
return null;
}
#Override
public void onCreate() {

}
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
isRunning = false;
}
public void connected() {
//things to do when it has wifi connection
}
}
In my MainActivity class, I start this service using the same way as in my StartAtBoot class, and there it works fine when I open the application. So the service is working fine, its just that the StartAtBoot class doesn't run the code.
ACTION_POWER_CONNECTED is not a listed exception to the limits on implicit Intent broadcasts. Your app cannot register for it in the manifest.
If your goal is to do work periodically, but only if the device has power, use JobScheduler or WorkManager.

BroadcastReceiver not working in the background OREO+

In my application there are two receivers, one receives calls (MyReceiverCall) and the second SMS (MyReceiverSms).
When you start the app everything works fine, I get a notification when I receive an SMS or call.
But if I close the app in task Manager then nothing wants to work and all incoming SMS and calls are ignored by the receiver.
I had assumptions that can be simply service with my notification does not start, but through logs I understood that the receiver simply does not work. (But so far the assumption is that services are to blame)
My code
MyReceiverCall.class
public class MyReceiverCall extends BroadcastReceiver {
private static final String ACTION = "android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE";
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.i("123","sakuraso13 ReceiverCall");
if (intent != null && intent.getAction() != null) {
if (intent.getAction().equals(ACTION)) {
String number=intent.getStringExtra(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_INCOMING_NUMBER);
if (intent.getStringExtra(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_STATE).equals(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_STATE_RINGING) & number!=null) {
// some operation with number phone
Intent intentService = new Intent(context, ServiceMain.class);
if(Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O){
context.startForegroundService(intentService);
}else {
context.startService(intentService);
}
}
}
}
}
}

private static final String TAG="MyReceiverSms";
private static final String ACTION="android.provider.Telephony.SMS_RECEIVED";

Log.i("123","sakuraso13 ReceiverWorking");
if(intent != null && intent.getAction()!=null) {
if (intent.getAction().equals(ACTION)) {
// some operation with number phone
Intent intentService=new Intent(context, ServiceMain.class);

Sometimes in logs I can see similar when calling when the application is closed:

Keep connectivity broadcast receiver running after application is closed

When I need to use Internet connection and it is not posible I want to set a broadcast receiver which keeps working if the app is closed.
I am using a service for that, but that it is not working. It works fine when the app is on screen or paused but it stops working if I close it. I am not pretty sure if I should use other thing or if I am doing something wrong.
This is my code:
package com.example.ana.exampleapp;
import android.app.Service;
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.IntentFilter;
import android.content.SharedPreferences;
import android.os.IBinder;
import android.util.Log;
public class TestsService extends Service {
private static BroadcastReceiver networkChangeReceiver;
private static String TAG = "Service";
#Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0) {
return null;
}
#Override
public void onCreate() {
Log.v(TAG, "Service created");
boolean keep = needTokeepWaiting()
if(!keep)
stopSelf();
}
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
if (networkChangeReceiver != null)
unregisterReceiver(networkChangeReceiver);
networkChangeReceiver = null;
Log.v(TAG, "Service destroyed");
}
private void registerNetworkChangeReceiver() {
networkChangeReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
private String TAG = "NetworkReceiver";
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.v(TAG, "Connection changed received");
boolean keep = needTokeepWaiting()
if(!keep)
stopSelf();
}
};
IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter(android.net.ConnectivityManager.CONNECTIVITY_ACTION);
registerReceiver(networkChangeReceiver, filter);
}
}
And my manisfest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.ana.exampleapp">
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name=".RegisterActivity"></activity>

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
</manifest>
And in the TestActivity when it is necessary I do:
Intent service = new Intent(this, TestsService.class);
startService(service);
What I am doing is similar to what it is suggested here, but it doesn't work:
Keep broadcast receiver running after application is closed
I have also tried to do it without a service and registering in the manifest, but It didn't work neither:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.ana.exampleapp">
<application
android:allowBackup="true"

android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden">

<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name=".RegisterActivity">
</activity>
<activity android:name=".FinishRegisterActivity" >
</activity>
<activity android:name=".TestActivity">
</activity>
<activity android:name=".InformationActivity" >
</activity>
<receiver android:name=".NetworkChangeReceiver"
android:enabled="false">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.net.conn.CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE"/>
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
</application>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
</manifest>
I have just found the problem. There is a bug in Android 4.4.x which kills background services when closing the app. I was testing my app in Android 4.4.2. Here there is a detailed explanation:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/03/07/bug-watch-stopping-apps-on-android-4-4-2-can-silently-kill-related-background-services-a-fix-is-on-the-way/
So my code was right as I have tried in Android 4.2.2 and it works (I have tried overriding onStartCommand() so maybe that was needed).
If you don't want your service to stop when the app is closed, you should override onStartCommand() method doing something like this:
#Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
return START_REDELIVER_INTENT;
}
You can return START_STICKY or START_REDELIVER_INTENT, whatever works better for you

BroadcastReceiver does not work

I'm trying to create some simple BroadcastReceiver according to manuals but I can't to make it work.
I'm calling procedure setAlarm in onCreate function in MainActivity that looks like this:
private void setAlarm() {
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, AlarmReceiver.class);
AlarmManager manager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getService(this, 0, intent, 0);
manager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis()+1000, pendingIntent);
}
It should activate AlarmReceiver that should do some action but doesn't do anything. It looks like this:
public class AlarmReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Toast.makeText(context, "I'm running", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
notifikace(context);
}
public void notifikace(Context context) {
NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context);
mBuilder.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.notifikace);
mBuilder.setContentTitle("Notification Alert, Click Me!");
mBuilder.setContentText("aaa");
NotificationManager mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
mNotificationManager.notify(2, mBuilder.build());
}
}
I suspect that I'm missing something in AndroidManifest but I don't know what. AndroidManifest looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED"/>
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.NoActionBar">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:name=".Nastaveni"

android:theme="#style/AppTheme.NoActionBar" />
<meta-data

<activity
android:name=".Tyden"
android:label="#string/title_activity_tyden"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.NoActionBar"></activity>
<receiver android:name=".AlarmReceiver" >
</receiver>
</application>
Ultimately appliacation should be able to send notification every day at certain time even if application isn't running at the moment. (I will have to then replace
manager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis()+1000, pendingIntent);
line with setRepeating function but so far for testing purposes I need first to get it running.)
But so far AlarmReceiver class doesn't do anything. I'm getting some error when I try to run it (but application doesn't crash):
04-14 11:52:54.592 1300-1354/? I/ActivityManager: START u0 {act=android.intent.action.MAIN cat=[android.intent.category.LAUNCHER] flg=0x10200000 cmp=com.example.xxx.myapplication3/com.example.xxx.myapplication.MainActivity (has extras)} from uid 10014 on display 0
04-14 11:52:54.673 1300-1635/? I/ActivityManager: START u0 {act=android.content.pm.action.REQUEST_PERMISSIONS pkg=com.android.packageinstaller cmp=com.android.packageinstaller/.permission.ui.GrantPermissionsActivity (has extras)} from uid 10057 on display 0
I'm not sure whether the error log is related to this or something else in the project. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance for any answer.
Sorry I saw later your receiver in manifest, your error is that you ar getting a pending intent with getService instead of getBroadcast.
Just change it to:
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, intent, 0);
I tried it just now :)
-- edited I will leave this as a reference --
You have to register the receiver somehow, either by code or by xml.
The alarm is an Intent broadcast that goes to a broadcast receiver that you registered with registerReceiver(BroadcastReceiver, IntentFilter) or through the tag in an AndroidManifest.xml file.
Refer to:
-Pending intent - getBroadcast
-AlarmManager
-Triggering alarm and issues

Android - start AlarmManager after reboot

AlarmManeger doesn't start after reboot but it should.
How can I do it?
AndroidManifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<receiver android:name=".AlarmEngine.AlarmManagerHelper" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED"></action>
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
BroadcastReceiver:
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent)
{
setAlarms(context);
}
public static void setAlarms(Context context)
{
cancelAlarms(context);
AlarmDBHelper dbHelper = new AlarmDBHelper(context);
List<AlarmModel> alarms = dbHelper.getAlarms();
for (AlarmModel alarm : alarms)
{
PendingIntent pIntent = createPendingIntent(context, alarm);
...
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(), pIntent);
I fixed it moved app to the phone's memory.
I replace this:
android:installLocation="preferExternal" >
On this:
android:installLocation="internalOnly" >
