android-doze-and-standby

I have to test how my app behaves in doze mode. According to the documentation , I first must make the device think it's unplugged by entering the following command in the terminal: $ adb shell dumpsys battery unplug However, nothing happens and it logs: Can't find service: battery What should I do? There is no battery service as the log points out (this may be device specific). Enter the following command to find existing battery related services: $ adb shell service list | grep battery it will result in something like this $ adb shell service list | grep battery 88 batterymanager: [android

I think this question is asked many time in stackoverflow but still so many people struggling to resolved it. In my android app I have to wake up device for every half hour to getting current location and send it to server. For this I have used AlarmManager with setExactAndAllowWhileIdle() method and WakefulBroadcastReceiver .

What does it do to background/foreground services (bound/unbound, started/not-started), with/without partial/full wakelocks? What would you do, for example, in order to create a service that plays an audio stream while the device's screen is turned off? What if the audio stream is not from a local file, but from the network? Seeing that there was a claim by Google developer: Apps that
