Android Question StartServiceAt

[gerredtor]

Hello, what is the best way to start different Services (because of an Alarm) and end them if they are time based. E.g. i activate an Alarm clock which should start in a couple of hours, meanwhile I start some other Services, how can end the first one now without affecting the others. can i asign it an id or what is here the best solution?

You don't need to stop services. Nothing bad happens when they run.

You should use StartServiceAt or StartServiceAtExact to schedule a service to start.

Hallo,

I have a foreground service that reschedules itself using StartServiceAt("", RestartAt, True)

This works fine with a lot of different devices.

However, it seems to be that some android implementations go into some kind of deep sleep mode that just ignores the scheduled restart of the service.

I also experimented with phonewakestate but nothing seems to avoid this problem.

Do you have a suggestion how to solve this problem?
