Weekly Scheduler not getting triggered?

Weekly Scheduler not getting triggered? - android

I am trying to invoke a scheduler every Tuesday at 11 AM but somehow below code is not working.
Using Calendar object, I'm getting the next date to be scheduled & then setting it up in scheduler.
Can someone point me what error exists in below code?
private static final int PERIOD = 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;
DateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yyyy HH:mm:ss", Locale.ENGLISH);
Calendar c = nextDayOfWeek(Calendar.TUESDAY); // Set the day of week at which you want to trigger weekly task
c.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 11); // Set the time at which you want to trigger weekly task
c.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
c.set(Calendar.SECOND,0);
c.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND,0);
boolean weeklyAlarmUp = (PendingIntent.getBroadcast(ctxt, 0, new Intent(ctxt, ScheduledWeeklyService.class), PendingIntent.FLAG_NO_CREATE) != null);
if (!weeklyAlarmUp) {
Intent i = new Intent(ctxt, ScheduledWeeklyService.class);
PendingIntent piWeekly = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(ctxt, 0, i, 0);
AlarmManager alarmMgrWeekly = (AlarmManager)ctxt.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmMgrWeekly.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, c.getTimeInMillis(), PERIOD, piWeekly);
}
My Utility method is as shown below:
public static Calendar nextDayOfWeek(int dow) {
Calendar date = Calendar.getInstance();
int diff = dow - date.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
if (!(diff > 0)) {
diff += 7;
}
date.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, diff);
return date;
}

Android Alarm Manager - alarm firing on random time

Im a just new in android and im currently working on scheduler app.This is my code on setting alarm using SQLite db values.
My problem here is that the alarm is triggering on random time.
public void startAlarm() throws ParseException {
Date dt = new Date();
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm a");
String time = sdf.format(dt);
String start_time;
Calendar sCalendar = Calendar.getInstance();
String dayLongName = sCalendar.getDisplayName(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK, Calendar.LONG, Locale.getDefault());
DatabaseHelper helper = new DatabaseHelper(getApplicationContext());
SQLiteDatabase sqLiteDatabase = helper.getReadableDatabase();
String checktime = "Select * from SCHEDULE where week_day='"+dayLongName+"'";
Cursor cursor = sqLiteDatabase.rawQuery(checktime, null);
if(cursor.moveToNext()) {
start_time = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(DatabaseHelper.STARTTIME));
SimpleDateFormat simpleDateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm a",Locale.getDefault());
SimpleDateFormat simpleDateFormat2 = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm",Locale.getDefault());
Date milli =simpleDateFormat2.parse(start_time);
String milli2 = simpleDateFormat2.format(milli);
Date timeparsed1 = simpleDateFormat.parse(start_time);
String timeparsed2 = simpleDateFormat.format(timeparsed1);
String s = milli2;
Pattern p = Pattern.compile("(\\d+):(\\d+)");
Matcher m = p.matcher(s);
if (m.matches()) {
int hrs = Integer.parseInt(m.group(1));
int min = Integer.parseInt(m.group(2));
long ms = (long) hrs * 60 * 60 * 1000 + min * 60 * 1000;
// System.out.println("hrs=" + hrs + " min=" + min + " ms=" + ms);
Intent intent = new Intent(this, MyBroadcastReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this.getApplicationContext(), 234324243, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, ms , pendingIntent);
//Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),String.valueOf(ms),Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Bad Format",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}

After Android 4.4, Google has introduced OS power management mechanism to minimize power use. Try adding a version checking in your code similar to the one below. If the version is KitKat and above, use setExact(). Otherwise use set().
See example below:
//For Android version 4.4 up, use setExact() for the alarm
//otherwise use set()
if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT) {
alarmManager.setExact(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis() + syncInterval * 1000, pendingIntent);
} else {
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis() + syncInterval * 1000, pendingIntent);
}
Documentation reference here

Try this set of code your service never going to stop it works for me. "setInexactReapeating" not working in many of the lollipop and marshmallows devices once it started then lose control over the service this will help you out.
if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23)
{
piLR = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, intentLR,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
amLR.setAndAllowWhileIdle(AlarmManager.ELAPSED_REALTIME_WAKEUP,
interval, piLR);
}
else if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 19
&& android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < 23)
{
piLR = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, intentLR,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
amLR.setInexactRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP,
System.currentTimeMillis(), interval, piLR);
}
else
{
amLR.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP,
System.currentTimeMillis(), interval, piLR);
}

Change textview everyday automatically

First I want to change textview text everyday automatically. For example, first day the textview text is "First text", and second day text is "Second text" at 8 o'clock eveyday. And the text is permanent until next day 8 o'clock.
I try this code but my problem is that the code is not triggered if the user doesn't open this page at 8 o'clock. Texts are inside "mquote array"
SharedPreferences pref =getApplicationContext().getSharedPreferences("myPrefsKey",Context.MODE_PRIVATE) ;
dayCount = pref.getInt("dayCount", 0);
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
int hour=cal.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY);
int minute=cal.get(Calendar.MINUTE);
if ((hour==8 && minute==1 ))
updateQuote();
tvQuote.setText(mquote.getQuote(dayCount));
public void updateQuote()
{
if (dayCount==4)
dayCount=0;
dayCount++;
pref.edit().putInt("dayCount",dayCount).apply();
}

You need an AlarmManager implementation:
public class AlarmReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
// The app's AlarmManager, which provides access to the system alarm services.
private AlarmManager alarmMgr;
// The pending intent that is triggered when the alarm fires.
private PendingIntent alarmIntent;
public void setAlarm(Context context) {
alarmManager = (AlarmManager) context.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
Intent intent = new Intent(context, AlarmReceiver.class);
alarmIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, intent, 0);
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
// set the Alarm's trigger time to 8:00 a.m.
calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAT, 9);
// Set the alarm to fire at approximately 8:30 a.m., according to the device's
// clock, and to repeat once a day.
alarmManager.setInexactRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC,
calendar.getTimeInMillis(), AlarmManager.INTERVAL_DAY, alarmIntent);
}
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if (intent.getAction().equals("android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED"))
{
alarm.setAlarm(context);
} else if(Objects.equals(intent, alarmIntent)) {
SharedPreferences pref = getApplicationContext().getSharedPreferences("key", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
int dayCount = pref.getInt("dayCount", 0);
dayCount %= 4;
pref.edit().putInt("dayCount", ++daysCount).apply();
}
}
}

You should use timestamp to be able to compare two dates. try this code.
But the 1 day happens while user is using the app, it will not trigger. If you want to overcome this, then use AlarmManager to trigger an event every single day.
SharedPreferences pref = getApplicationContext().getSharedPreferences("myPrefsKey",Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
lastDay_ms= pref.getInt("time_ms", 0);
Calendar today = Calendar.getInstance();
long diff = today.getTimeInMillis() - lastDay_ms; //result in millis
final long ONE_DAY = 24*60*60*1000; //millis in a day
if (diff > ONE_DAY)
updateQuote();

Store milliseconds when you last updated preferences in your preferences:
SharedPreferences pref = getApplicationContext().getSharedPreferences("msKey", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
msCount = pref.getInt("msCount", 0);
long milliseconds = System.currentTimeMillis();
long diff = milliseconds - msCount;
diff += (8 * 60 * 60 * 1000); // compensating difference for 8'O clock condition
int days = (int) Math.ceil(diff / 24 / 60 / 60 / 1000);
days %= 4; // Because you were resetting days count after 4 increments
updateQuote(days);
public void updateQuote(days) {
if(days == 0) {
pref.edit().putInt("msCount", milliseconds).apply();
}
}

application start at a specific time using AlarmManager [duplicate]

I have searched a lot of places but couldnt find a clean sequential explanation of how to start a service (or if thats not possible then an activity) at a specific time daily using the AlarmManager??
I want to register several such alarms and triggering them should result in a service to be started. I'll be having a small piece of code in the service which can then execute and i can finish the service for good....
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
Calendar cur_cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cur_cal.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
Date date = new Date(cur_cal.get(Calendar.YEAR), cur_cal.get(Calendar.MONTH), cur_cal.get(Calendar.DATE), 16, 45);
cal.setTime(date);
Intent intent = new Intent(ProfileList.this, ActivateOnTime.class);
intent.putExtra("profile_id", 2);
PendingIntent pintent = PendingIntent.getService(ProfileList.this, 0, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarm.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, cal.getTimeInMillis(), pintent);
System.out.println("The alarm set!!");
i tried this code to activate the alarm at 4.45... but its not firing the service... do i have to keep the process running??
M i doing anything wrong???
One more thing, my service gets perfectly executed in case i use the following code:
long firstTime = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime();
alarm.setRepeating(AlarmManager.ELAPSED_REALTIME_WAKEUP, firstTime, 30*1000,pintent);

HI friends,
After a lot of researching and with reference from "Pentium10"'s question on the same topic i managed to get it working. Though i still cant understand why the "date" concept and the Calendar(non GregorianCalendar) object which i have mentioned in the question are not working correctly.
Calendar cur_cal = new GregorianCalendar();
cur_cal.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());//set the current time and date for this calendar
Calendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
cal.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR, cur_cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR));
cal.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 18);
cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 32);
cal.set(Calendar.SECOND, cur_cal.get(Calendar.SECOND));
cal.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, cur_cal.get(Calendar.MILLISECOND));
cal.set(Calendar.DATE, cur_cal.get(Calendar.DATE));
cal.set(Calendar.MONTH, cur_cal.get(Calendar.MONTH));
Intent intent = new Intent(ProfileList.this, IntentBroadcastedReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pintent = PendingIntent.getService(ProfileList.this, 0, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarm.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, cal.getTimeInMillis(), 30*1000, pintent);

//Create alarm manager
AlarmManager alarmMgr0 = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
//Create pending intent & register it to your alarm notifier class
Intent intent0 = new Intent(this, AlarmReciever.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent0 = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, intent0, 0);
//set timer you want alarm to work (here I have set it to 7.20pm)
Intent intent0 = new Intent(this, OldEntryRemover.class);
Calendar timeOff9 = Calendar.getInstance();
timeOff9.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 19);
timeOff9.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 20);
timeOff9.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
//set that timer as a RTC Wakeup to alarm manager object
alarmMgr0.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, timeOff0.getTimeInMillis(), pendingIntent0);
Then in your AlarmReciever class which is a broadcastReciever, under onRecieve method put your logic. This will take care of what ever the logic you want to handle when the time comes to 7.20 pm.
If you need to set multiple alarms, create another Calendar instance & set time values appropriately. You also need to create another instance for pendingIntent otherwise timers will overlap. Then set it to same alarmManager with new timer & pendingIntent.

You can read document from https://developer.android.com/training/scheduling/alarms.html
private AlarmManager alarmMgr;
private PendingIntent alarmIntent;
alarmMgr = (AlarmManager)context.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
Intent intent = new Intent(context, AlarmReceiver.class);
alarmIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, intent, 0);
// Set the alarm to start at 8:30 a.m.
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 8);
calendar.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 30);
// setRepeating() lets you specify a precise custom interval--in this case,
// 20 minutes.
alarmMgr.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(),
1000 * 60 * 20, alarmIntent);

The following code should work fine and it starts the service # 7:40 PM every day. Also, if device shuts down then all your alarms get cancelled.
Make sure to set up all the alarms after BOOT is completed.
Intent slIntent = new Intent(this, x.class);
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 19);
calendar.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 40);
calendar.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
PendingIntent slPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getService(this, 1, slIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_ONE_SHOT);
AlarmManager alarmManager=(AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(),
AlarmManager.INTERVAL_DAY, slPendingIntent);

I tried a lot To Start Service on Time So I Have one solution like
Calculate the difference between current time and selected time
from date picker "Return Long timeMileSec = Milliseconds" Difference
after this create a handler inside it and Sleep if "Milliseconds" seconds

Setting up multiple alarms in Android

When I make an alarm with the time picker the new one always overrides the previous one. I need help to make multiple alarms that override each other. I am using the following code:
Intent i = new Intent("class");
PendingIntent operation = PendingIntent.getActivity(getBaseContext(), 0, i, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getBaseContext().getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
DatePicker dpDate = (DatePicker) findViewById(R.id.dp_date);
TimePicker tpTime = (TimePicker) findViewById(R.id.tp_time);
int year = dpDate.getYear();
int month = dpDate.getMonth();
int day = dpDate.getDayOfMonth();
int hour = tpTime.getCurrentHour();
int minute = tpTime.getCurrentMinute();
GregorianCalendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar(year, month, day, hour, minute);
long alarm_time = calendar.getTimeInMillis();
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, alarm_time, operation);
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Alarm is set successfully",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
