Thanks for your answers, there are no Server connections required for my method. What I'm doing is to check my actual position and compare it to defined areas in the database. if I find a matching Area I want to start an Intent and notify the user.
If I get it right, my method should be a Broadcast receiver which will be triggered by the AlarmManager, is this right? so I will push my futher resarches in the direction of alarmManager. If you got some examples I would appreciate if you send me a link. regards larry On 1 Sep., 02:47, JP <joachim.pfeif...@gmail.com> wrote: > A partial wake lock will do the trick, except in that it places a > burden on the battery beyond normal operation. > Also heads-up that the System seems to like killing Services that > snooze. > > On Aug 31, 4:19 pm, Laxs <oum.la...@googlemail.com> wrote: > > > Hi, > > > I got a problem, I want to call a method every X minutes, if my method > > got a result it ´should inform the user by vibrating or showing a > > alertbox. if the method doesn't get a result it should wait for X > > minutes and restart. > > What is important, this should also work when the phone turns to > > sleep.
