I have to find a solution to get location updates when in doze mode. It doesn't matter if the updates are continuous or for every 5 min or more. At the moment I have a foreground service that acquires a wake lock with a LocationListener in it. The app is also whitelisted. My service doesn't get killed when in doze but the gps signal is. I can't find a solution to get a location update. I also tried to start the service with AlarmManager.setExactAndAllowWhileIdle and the service starts in doze but still no locationupdates.
MainActivity that starts the service with button:
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Button startTrackingServiceButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.startTrackingServiceButton);
Button stopTrackingServiceButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.stopTrackingServiceButton);
askForWhitelistingApp();
if (permissionsGranted()) {
startTrackingServiceButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
askForWhitelistingApp();
startTrackUserForegroundService();
//setServiceWithAlarmManager();
}
});
stopTrackingServiceButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
stopTrackUserForegroundService();
}
});
}else{
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[] {
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION,
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION },
10);
}
}
private void setServiceWithAlarmManager(){
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, TrackUserForegroundService.class);
intent.setAction(TrackUserForegroundService.ACTION_START_FOREGROUND_SERVICE);
PendingIntent pintent = PendingIntent.getService(MainActivity.this, 0, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
Calendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar();
calendar.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 40);
calendar.set(Calendar.SECOND, 20);
calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR, 3);
Long time = calendar.getTimeInMillis();
alarm.setExactAndAllowWhileIdle(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, time, pintent);
