Android Question WakeUp service doesn´t work on a Samsung Galaxy S5

[Bob Spielen]

Im using a WakeUp service with the function :

If P.SdkVersion > 18 Then StartServiceAtExact(despertador, (DateTime.Now) , True) Else StartServiceAt(despertador,(DateTime.Now),True)

On many phones, it works perfectly. On a Samsung Galaxy S5, does not work!
Does anyone have an idea of what could be happening!
In advance I thank you for the help.

You can use StartServiceAtExact on all versions of Android.

Mr. Erel, first ..thanks a lot for the reply.
Im not sure if I understood when should I start a service in the foreground mode.... In this case of a long term (4days) wake up service should I use Service.AUTOMATIC_FOREGROUND_WHEN_NEEDED , Service.AUTOMATIC_FOREGROUND_NEVER (with Pw.PartialLock) or Service.AUTOMATIC_FOREGROUND_ALWAYS (so OS will not kill and then using Service.StopAutomaticForeground by the end of the service...) ?
In advance thank you very much!

Your last question is not really related to this thread.

It depends on your app requirements. If the task will run for a few seconds then your best option is to use the default (WHEN_NEEDED).
