Background service using alarm manager

I have followed below example code for implementing Periodic background service. Periodic task executes correctly If app on foreground on 1st time. If, I close application then Background service is not working.
https://github.com/codepath/android_guides/wiki/Starting-Background-Services#using-with-alarmmanager-for-periodic-tasks
1) BroadcastReceiver service for Bootcomplete
public class BootBroadcastReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
// Launch the specified service when this message is received
Intent startServiceIntent = new Intent(context, MyTestService.class);
context.startService(startServiceIntent);
}
}
2) BroadcastReceiver to start service
public class MyAlarmReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
public static final int REQUEST_CODE = 12345;
// Triggered by the Alarm periodically (starts the service to run task)
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Intent i = new Intent(context, MyTestService.class);
i.putExtra("foo", "bar");
context.startService(i);
Toast.makeText(context, "Welcome --------1", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
3) IntenetService class: To execute my background task
public class MyTestService extends IntentService {
// Must create a default constructor
public MyTestService() {
// Used to name the worker thread, important only for debugging.
super("test-service");
}
#Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate(); // if you override onCreate(), make sure to call super().
}
#Override
protected void onHandleIntent(Intent intent) {
}
}
4) Service is started from activity as
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
scheduleAlarm();
}
// Setup a recurring alarm every half hour
public void scheduleAlarm() {
// Construct an intent that will execute the AlarmReceiver
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), MyAlarmReceiver.class);
// Create a PendingIntent to be triggered when the alarm goes off
final PendingIntent pIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, MyAlarmReceiver.REQUEST_CODE,
intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
// Setup periodic alarm every 5 seconds
long firstMillis = System.currentTimeMillis(); // alarm is set right away
AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager) this.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
// First parameter is the type: ELAPSED_REALTIME, ELAPSED_REALTIME_WAKEUP, RTC_WAKEUP
// Interval can be INTERVAL_FIFTEEN_MINUTES, INTERVAL_HALF_HOUR, INTERVAL_HOUR, INTERVAL_DAY
alarm.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, firstMillis,
30000, pIntent);
}
}

If, implement above as sample project as separate then, background service is executing fine always. But If try to integrate with my existing code then not working...
Edited: Found Solution
It got resolved by adding full path android:name service in AndroidManifest.xml
<service
android:name="test.org.help.syncmanager.auto.MyTestService"
android:exported="false" />

NOTE: My understanding is I'm making a mistake in the Manfiest since the notification arrives, but the wrong action is called

You can override onReceive method to dispatch your custom action.
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
String intentAction = intent.getAction();
switch (intentAction) {
case "com.hellboy.beat.STATUS_DONE":
onPushReceive(context, intent);
break;
case ACTION_PUSH_DELETE:
onPushDismiss(context, intent);
break;
case ACTION_PUSH_OPEN:
onPushOpen(context, intent);
break;
}
}
https://github.com/ParsePlatform/Parse-SDK-Android/blob/master/Parse/src/main/java/com/parse/ParsePushBroadcastReceiver.java

The error was in the Manifest; ParseBroadcastReceiver should be ParsePushBroadcastReceiver
Snippet:
<receiver
android:name="com.parse.ParsePushBroadcastReceiver"
android:exported="false" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.parse.push.intent.RECEIVE" />
<action android:name="com.parse.push.intent.DELETE" />
<action android:name="com.parse.push.intent.OPEN" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
<receiver android:name="com.hellboy.beat.PushRec" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.hellboy.beat.STATUS_DONE" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.USER_PRESENT" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
And remove this from the Manifest:
<!-- Regular Push Notification -->
<!-- REMOVE THIS -->
<receiver android:name="com.parse.ParseBroadcastReceiver" />
Also in the Receiver:
public class PushRec extends ParsePushBroadcastReceiver
{
}
becomes
public class PushRec extends BroadcastReceiver
{
}

Android Parse Push Notifications Not Working - Outdated Device

I just updated the latest Parse SDK (1.11.0) and now I'm not receiving push notifications. I am able to register successfully and can see on the parse site that that my "developer" channel has been subscribed but pushes never get sent and I get this error:
PPNS - Outdated device - The records on this installation are
outdated, the user might have uninstalled the app.
Can someone please take a look at my code and see if you notice anything incorrect?
public class LSIApplication extends Application {
#Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
Parse.initialize(this, "********", "********");
ParseInstallation.getCurrentInstallation().saveInBackground();
ParsePush.subscribeInBackground("developer", new SaveCallback() {
#Override
public void done(ParseException e) {
if (e == null) {
Log.d("com.parse.push", "successfully subscribed to the broadcast channel.");
} else {
Log.e("com.parse.push", "failed to subscribe for push", e);
}
}
});
Parse.setLogLevel(Parse.LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE);
}
}`

JSONObject json = new JSONObject(jsonString);
if ( json.has("postID") ) {
return true;
}
} catch (JSONException jsonE) {
jsonE.printStackTrace();
}
return false;
}
}

In your manifest.xml comment/delete below code,
<receiver android:name="com.parse.ParsePushBroadcastReceiver"
android:exported="false">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.parse.push.intent.RECEIVE" />
<action android:name="com.parse.push.intent.DELETE" />
<action android:name="com.parse.push.intent.OPEN" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
then add below code in manifest.xml
<receiver
android:name="com.parse.GcmBroadcastReceiver"
android:permission="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.SEND">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE" />
<action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.REGISTRATION" />
<!--IMPORTANT: Change "com.parse.starter" to match your app's package name.-->
<category android:name="your_application_id" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
hope it works.

BroadcastReceiver not receiving the broadcast from IntentService when device is in sleep mode

I have a GCMBroadcastReceiver, which is receiving GCM broadcast and starting intentservice
public class GCMBroadcastReceiver extends WakefulBroadcastReceiver{
public static final String TAG = "GCMBroadcastReceiver";
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
Log.e(TAG, "Recieved GCM broadcast, starting GCM intent service");
// Explicitly specify that GcmIntentService will handle the intent.
ComponentName comp = new ComponentName(context.getPackageName(),
GCMIntentService.class.getName());
startWakefulService(context, (intent.setComponent(comp)));
setResultCode(Activity.RESULT_OK);
}
}
And the IntentService is sending a Broadcast (broadcast receiver is GCMNotificationObserver) before calling completeWakefulIntent on GCMBroadcastReceiver
protected void onHandleIntent(Intent intent) {
if (intent == null) {
return;
}
Bundle extras = intent.getExtras();
GoogleCloudMessaging gcm = GoogleCloudMessaging.getInstance(this);
String messageType = gcm.getMessageType(intent);
Log.e(TAG, "GCM message type: " + messageType);
if (!extras.isEmpty()) {
if (GoogleCloudMessaging.
MESSAGE_TYPE_SEND_ERROR.equals(messageType)) {
onError(intent);
} else if (GoogleCloudMessaging.
MESSAGE_TYPE_DELETED.equals(messageType)) {
onDeletedMessages(intent);
} else if (GoogleCloudMessaging.
MESSAGE_TYPE_MESSAGE.equals(messageType)) {
onMessage(intent);
}
}
GCMBroadcastReceiver.completeWakefulIntent(intent);
}
In onMessage method I'm broadcasting
protected void onMessage(Intent intent) {
String payload = intent.getStringExtra("cm_data");
Intent broadCastIntent = new Intent(
GCMNotificationObserver.ACTION_GCM_NOTIFICATION_MESSAGE_RECEIVED);
broadCastIntent.putExtra("payload", payload);
sendBroadcast(broadCastIntent);
}
The issue I'm facing is that GCMNotificationObserver is not receiving the broadcast.
I'm suspecting the device is returning to sleep mode before broadcast is received.

Homescreen/launcher with Monodroid crash

I'm trying to create a launcher/homescreen. The application crashes on restart.
Debugger displays : "Unable to get provider mono.MonoRuntimeProvider". You have to wait a long time before the MonoRuntimeProvider is started, and then the app works. Any ideas to resolve this problem?
Activity1.cs
[Activity(Label = "Test application", MainLauncher = true, Icon = "#drawable/icon")]
public class Activity1 : Activity
{
int count = 1;
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle bundle)
{
try
{
base.OnCreate(bundle);
RequestWindowFeature(WindowFeatures.NoTitle);
Window.SetFlags(WindowManagerFlags.Fullscreen, WindowManagerFlags.Fullscreen);
// Set our view from the "main" layout resource
SetContentView(Resource.Layout.Main);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Log.Error("TestError","Test Error:" + ex.Message);
}
//
}
Manifest.xml
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:installLocation="internalOnly" package="Test.AndroidMono" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="test">

Find the solution:
MonoRuntimeProvider is required for debugging. Once I made a release, it worked perfectly...
