I'm using this code (from my activity) to start a periodic timer in the application:
Intent intent = new Intent(this, MyBroadcastReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this.getApplicationContext(), 234324243, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis(),(i * 1000), pendingIntent);
Toast.makeText(this, "Alarm set in " + i + " seconds",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
I want to know how can i know (from a different activity) is the timer is running?
One possibility I can think of is to check if the pending Intent is defined.
You can call
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this.getApplicationContext(), 234324243, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_NO_CREATE);
this will give you the pending Intent, or null if the Intent was not specified. This will not guarantee that the alarm was set but it is an easy way to check if the set alarm code was called before.
Another possibility is to save all set alarms in a SharedPreferences file. In this way you can look for all alarms set by your app in the shared prefs file.
As far as I can see there is no way to get a list of set alarms for your application from the AlarmManager
in stop function
Intent intent = new Intent(this, LocaitonSampleBroadcaseReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast( this.getApplicationContext(), 234324243, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE); alarmManager.cancel(pendingIntent);
just add this:
pendingIntent.cancel();
so you can use the string wrote comment Janusz
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this.getApplicationContext(), 234324243, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_NO_CREATE);

I set my alarm receiver as follow:
Intent intent = new Intent(context, AlarmReceiver.class);
intent.putExtra("alarmId", REQUEST_CODE);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, REQUEST_CODE, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) context.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.ELAPSED_REALTIME_WAKEUP,
SystemClock.elapsedRealtime() +
time * 1000, pendingIntent);
Then I am canceling it from another class:
Intent myIntent = new Intent(context, AlarmReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, myIntent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager)activity.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.cancel(pendingIntent);
But it does not work. Please help me!
Your Intents are not equivalent. The first one uses REQUEST_CODE. The second one uses 0. You need to make these be the same.
I am working on application which is get the alarm time from database every 2 AM and then at the specified time the activity shows up, my app works fine, but when I manually change the data/time of the device, previous alarms are triggered and I should prevent to this to happens.
Here is my PendingIntent:
Intent i = new Intent(mContext, AlarmReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(G.context, _id, i,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
Which each _id is unique and when I make a receiver for date changed event before my alarm cancel method fired previous alarms go off!
Can some body help to solve this problem?
Try this code:
Intent intent = new Intent(this, Mote.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(getApplicationContext(), 1253, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE); alarmManager.cancel(pendingIntent);
For cancel the alarm:
Intent intent = new Intent(this, Mote.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(getApplicationContext(), 1253, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.cancel(pendingIntent);

Well you can look for the answer and modify as per your requirements:

I have scheduled android notifications using alarm manager but I couldn't cancel the notification where I tried to cancel it using this notificationManager.cancelAll(); does not work and then I tried to cancel alarm manager itself, unfortunately, does not work.
Does anyone know how to cancel scheduled notification?
This is how I set alarm manager for notification:
Intent myIntent = new Intent(DirctActivityfinal3.this, MyReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(DirctActivityfinal3.this, 0, myIntent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, timeOff9.getTimeInMillis(), pendingIntent);
I tried this code to cancel alarm manager, but not working I still get notified
Intent intent = new Intent(ViewTicketActivity.this, DeleteNotification.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(ViewTicketActivity.this,0, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.cancel(pendingIntent);
Your PendingIntents are not the same.
To cancel an alarm, the pending intent that you created to cancel the alarm with must be the same as the one you created the alarm with.
e,g in your example, You are passing different classes into each.
Intent myIntent = new Intent(DirctActivityfinal3.this, MyReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(DirctActivityfinal3.this, 0, myIntent, 0);
is not the same as
Intent intent = new Intent(ViewTicketActivity.this, DeleteNotification.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(ViewTicketActivity.this,0, intent, 0);
Complete Sample:
Intent myIntent = new Intent(myContext, MyReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(myContext, 0, myIntent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
then either
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, timeOff9.getTimeInMillis(), pendingIntent);
or
alarmManager.cancel(pendingIntent);
Declare Intent, PendingIntent and AlarmManager as global variables
to cancel the scheduled
pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(ViewTicketActivity.this, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);
alarmManager.cancel(pendingIntent);
I have met same issue like this .
Delete alarm from AlarmManager using cancel() - Android
"
I'm trying to create and delete an alarm in two different methods which are both called at different moments in the application. logic.
However when I call AlarmManager's cancel() method, the alarm isn't deleted."
In order to set :
Intent myIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),
SessionReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(
getApplicationContext(), 1, myIntent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC, now.getTimeInMillis(),
pendingIntent);
In order to delete :
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
Intent myIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),
SessionReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(
getApplicationContext(), 0, myIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
alarmManager.cancel(pendingIntent);
But this doesn't remove an alarm registered.
Thanks in advance.
The PendingIntent needs to be created exactly as it was when you start the AlarmManager, and it looks like the main issue is that you're using a different requestCode (zero instead of one).
For a quick fix, this should work:
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
Intent myIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), SessionReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(
getApplicationContext(), 1, myIntent, 0);
alarmManager.cancel(pendingIntent);
In order to use PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT flag, see below:
Setting:
Intent myIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), SessionReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(
getApplicationContext(), 1, myIntent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC, now.getTimeInMillis(), pendingIntent);
Cancelling:
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
Intent myIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), SessionReceiver.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(
getApplicationContext(), 1, myIntent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
alarmManager.cancel(pendingIntent);
Initially for me also not worked,After Seeing many posts i realized that the pending intent to be canceled should be same as the original pending intent that was used to schedule alarm.
The pending intent to be cancelled should have set to same action and same data fields,if any have those were used to set the alarm.After setting the same ACTION and data values though i'm not using them,only cancelled the Alarm.
I am setting multiple alarms which will have the exact same PendingIntent object, but their time of going off is different. If I cancel one alarm by providing the same Intent object to PendingIntent, and pass this to AlarmManager.cancel(), will it cancel all the alarms (i.e. with different starting times) or will it exhibit some other behavior?
Here is the code:
while(size != 0)
{
timeToSet = getNewTime(); //gets calendar object
Intent intent = new Intent(this, MyAlarmReceiver.class);
intent.putExtra("uniqueid", uuid);
intent.putExtra("vibrate", myalarm.getVibrate());
intent.putExtra("important", myalarm.getImportant());
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this.getApplicationContext(),
0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT | Intent.FILL_IN_DATA);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, timeToSet.getTimeInMillis(), 604800000, pendingIntent);
size--;
}
So the Intent object is same for all the alarms, but the time is different.
Now when I cancel these alarms:
Intent intent = new Intent(this, MyAlarmReceiver.class);
intent.putExtra("uniqueid", uuid);
intent.putExtra("vibrate", myalarm.getVibrate());
intent.putExtra("important", myalarm.getImportant());
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this.getApplicationContext(), 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT | Intent.FILL_IN_DATA);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
alarmManager.cancel(pendingIntent);
Will all the alarms get cancelled? That is what I want it to do. I could use a different requestCode in every PendingIntent, but it will be better if all of them get cancelled as I dont want to maintain and store these extra requestCodes.
Thanks!
If you have a predefined amount of alarms you can set a unique requestCode (second parameter of getBroadcast) for each alarm. But I'm not sure if that works for you. If you don't specify a requestCode all alarms will be seen as equal by filterEqualsand therefore all alarms will be canceled.
