I want to create an app that set/reset a timer to reproduce a song if the mobile spend 8 hours with the screen off.
I want to create a service that receive ACTION_SCREEN_OFF, but the problem is that when the app is killed from recent apps, the service is killed. I try with START_STICKY but the service is not restarted (onCreate is called sometimes but not onStart Command). I try to set in Manifest but the receiver must be register.
By now I only want that receiver detect ACTION_SCREEN_OFF.
I Have this code:
MainScreen.java (MainActivity)
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.View;
public class MainScreen extends Activity implements View.OnClickListener{
public static final String MSG_TAG = "NoSleepMore";
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main_screen);
findViewById(R.id.start_service_button).setOnClickListener(this);
findViewById(R.id.stop_service_button).setOnClickListener(this);
}
#Override
public void onClick(View v){
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), LockService.class);
switch (v.getId()) {
case R.id.start_service_button:
Log.e(MSG_TAG,"Service started");
//starts service for the given Intent
startService(intent);
break;
case R.id.stop_service_button:
Log.e(MSG_TAG,"Service stopped");
//stops service for the given Intent
stopService(intent);
break;
}
}
}
LockService.java
import android.app.Service;
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.IntentFilter;

import android.util.Log;
public class LockService extends Service {
#Override

Log.i(MainScreen.MSG_TAG, "onBind()" );
return null;
}
#Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
Log.i(MainScreen.MSG_TAG, "Service Created");
/* Filtrar Acciones Capturadas */
final IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON);
filter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_OFF);
filter.addAction(Intent.ACTION_USER_PRESENT);
// Listener
final BroadcastReceiver mReceiver = new ScreenReceiver();
// Registar Listener
registerReceiver(mReceiver, filter);
return Service.START_STICKY;
//return super.onStartCommand(intent, flags, startId);
}
#Override
public void onCreate() {
Log.i(MainScreen.MSG_TAG, "onCreate()");
}
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
Log.i(MainScreen.MSG_TAG, "onDestroy()");
}
}

} else if (intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON)) {

}else if(intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_USER_PRESENT)){
Log.e(MainScreen.MSG_TAG,"Action UserPresent");
}
}
}

I'm trying to find out how to run a service (Any service, may be foreground or background) when device boots. I've tried implementing broadcast receiver but it seems not to work.
Below is my full code.
1.AndroidManifext.xml - I made sure I included the service and broadcast receiver here. Are there any permissions I may be lacking?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
package="com.example.testboot">
<!-- Example need below permission. -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:roundIcon="#mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme"
tools:ignore="GoogleAppIndexingWarning">
<activity android:name="com.example.testboot.MainActivity">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<receiver
android:name="com.example.testboot.BootDeviceReceiver"
android:enabled="true"
android:exported="true">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.QUICKBOOT_POWERON" />
<action android:name="com.htc.intent.action.QUICKBOOT_POWERON" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
<service
android:name="com.example.testboot.RunAfterBootService"
android:enabled="true"
android:exported="true"></service>
</application>
</manifest>
2.MainActivity.java - This is the launch class, I made it call the broadcast receiver class. Asides from that, it doesn't have anything else.
package com.example.testboot;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Intent intent = new Intent("com.example.testboot.BootDeviceReceiver");
sendBroadcast(intent);
}
}
3.BootDeviceReceiver.java -This is the class responsible for knowing when device has booted up (Extends Broadcast receiver)
package com.example.testboot;
import android.app.AlarmManager;
import android.app.PendingIntent;
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class BootDeviceReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
private static final String TAG_BOOT_BROADCAST_RECEIVER = "BOOT_BROADCAST_RECEIVER";
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
String action = intent.getAction();
String message = "BootDeviceReceiver onReceive, action is " + action;
Toast.makeText(context, message, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Log.d(TAG_BOOT_BROADCAST_RECEIVER, action);
if(Intent.ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED.equals(action))
{
//startServiceDirectly(context);
startServiceByAlarm(context);
}
}
/* Start RunAfterBootService service directly and invoke the service every 10 seconds. */
private void startServiceDirectly(Context context)
{
try {
while (true) {
String message = "BootDeviceReceiver onReceive start service directly.";
Toast.makeText(context, message, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Log.d(TAG_BOOT_BROADCAST_RECEIVER, message);
// This intent is used to start background service. The same service will be invoked for each invoke in the loop.
Intent startServiceIntent = new Intent(context, RunAfterBootService.class);
context.startService(startServiceIntent);
// Current thread will sleep one second.
Thread.sleep(10000);
}
}catch(InterruptedException ex)
{
Log.e(TAG_BOOT_BROADCAST_RECEIVER, ex.getMessage(), ex);
}
}
/* Create an repeat Alarm that will invoke the background service for each execution time.
* The interval time can be specified by your self. */
private void startServiceByAlarm(Context context)
{
// Get alarm manager.
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager)context.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
// Create intent to invoke the background service.
Intent intent = new Intent(context, RunAfterBootService.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getService(context, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
long intervalTime = 60*1000;
String message = "Start service use repeat alarm. ";
Toast.makeText(context, message, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Log.d(TAG_BOOT_BROADCAST_RECEIVER, message);
// Create repeat alarm.
alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, startTime, intervalTime, pendingIntent);
}
}
3.RunAfterBootService.java - This is the service class, should be displayed after device completes booting up.
package com.example.testboot;
import android.app.Service;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.IBinder;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class RunAfterBootService extends Service {
private static final String TAG_BOOT_EXECUTE_SERVICE = "BOOT_BROADCAST_SERVICE";
public RunAfterBootService() {
}
#Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
// TODO: Return the communication channel to the service.
throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not yet implemented");
}
#Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
Log.d(TAG_BOOT_EXECUTE_SERVICE, "RunAfterBootService onCreate() method.");
}
#Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
String message = "RunAfterBootService onStartCommand() method.";
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), message, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Log.d(TAG_BOOT_EXECUTE_SERVICE, "RunAfterBootService onStartCommand() method.");
Intent i = new Intent();
i.setClass(RunAfterBootService.this,MainActivity.class);
startActivity(i);
return super.onStartCommand(intent, flags, startId);
}
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
}
}
So far, when I restart my device nothing happens at all.
Has your app an icon ? you must open your app one time then you can receive the boot_complete broadcast.
I want to programing app for data track in background , so I use service .
I want to write a program that monitors all data sent and received by the device, and when the total volume of received or received messages reaches a specified value, the Internet device is turned off.
So I used the following code to monitor the data:
mStartRX = TrafficStats.getTotalRxBytes ();
mStartTX = TrafficStats.getTotalTxBytes ();
And I used the services to work on the background in the background.
To specify the download or upload limit from the user with edittext, I requested this limit in mainactivity and send this value to the service.
The problem is when: When I destroy the program, I will restart the service and get the NULL value and the program crashes.
My application code:

please help me ...
The problem is with this line
public long dl=MainActivity.DLL;
You're referring to a variable in the Activity, surly when the Activity is destroyed, this variable is no longer in scope, thus you get Null Exception.
You must get this value using the intent.
The other problem is that you can't prevent any service from being killed by the system except foreground services which need to show a notification to the user. But this is not suitable for your situation.
Therefore, the best approach for you is to check whether intent is null or not. If it is not null, you get the value and save it into Preferences or Database or somewhere, if it is null, you retrieve the value from where you stored it before.
I want to learn how to use services in my application, but Service doesn't work! Here is my code.
This is the sample code i have written for the services. Suggest me if i am missing anything.Thanks in Advance

This code is not working. The service starting when the startService calling in MainActivity. But when a dialer open it not working.
I think maybe you can try changing getApplication () to MainActivity.this.
And I think you need to jump from the dialer to MainActivity to get the service started
So I just started working on this project and part of it is sending packages of information from an app in Java to another Unity app.
I have been trying to follow this tutorial but I have problems getting it to work and even somewhat understanding it a bit since I have not worked with Java before.
Here is the current code I have so far.
Main Activity Class

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
.add(R.id.container, new PlaceholderFragment()).commit();
}
startService(new Intent(this, MyService.class));
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
/**

public static class PlaceholderFragment extends Fragment {

}
}
}

// It's the code we want our Handler to execute to send data
private Runnable sendData = new Runnable() {

public void run() {
numIntent++;
// sendIntent is the object that will be broadcast outside our app
Intent sendIntent = new Intent();
// We add flags for example to work from background
sendIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_ANIMATION|Intent.FLAG_FROM_BACKGROUND|Intent.FLAG_INCLUDE_STOPPED_PACKAGES );
// SetAction uses a string which is an important name as it identifies the sender of the itent and that we will give to the receiver to know what to listen.
// By convention, it's suggested to use the current package name
sendIntent.setAction("com.example.service3");
// Here we fill the Intent with our data, here just a string with an incremented number in it.
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Intent "+numIntent);
// And here it goes ! our message is send to any other app that want to listen to it.
sendBroadcast(sendIntent);
// In our case we run this method each second with postDelayed

handler.postDelayed(this, 1000);
}
};
#Override
