WorkManager doWork callback is not received in Redmi and other custom Chinese ROM when device got rebooted and force closed the app

Question

My app is not receiving push notification in Redmi phones while the app is in the background or it got killed by swiping.

So I am trying to wake the phone by WorkManager which works on many phones except Redmi and other Chinese custom ROM phones.

Here is my code of Worker class

public class OpenTalkWorkManager extends Worker {

@NonNull
@Override
public Result doWork() {

    Log.i("wake_up", "Waking up now: " + System.currentTimeMillis());

    FirebaseUtils.getInstance().updateUserPresenceStatus(getApplicationContext(), "yes");

    Intent intent = new Intent("com.opentalk.WAKE_UP");
    getApplicationContext().sendBroadcast(intent);

    return Result.SUCCESS;
}

I am trying to enqueue the work through PeriodicWorkRequest

PeriodicWorkRequest.Builder mPeriodicWorkRequest = new PeriodicWorkRequest.Builder(OpenTalkWorkManager.class, 4, TimeUnit.MINUTES);
    Constraints myConstraints = new Constraints.Builder()
            .setRequiresBatteryNotLow(false)
            .setRequiredNetworkType(NetworkType.NOT_REQUIRED)
            .setRequiresCharging(false)
            .setRequiresDeviceIdle(false)
            .setRequiresStorageNotLow(false)

            // Many other constraints are available, see the
            // Constraints.Builder reference
            .build();
    PeriodicWorkRequest myWork = mPeriodicWorkRequest.setConstraints(myConstraints).build();

    UUID compressionWorkId = myWork.getId();
    WorkManager.getInstance().cancelWorkById(compressionWorkId);

    WorkManager.getInstance().enqueue(myWork);

Answer 1

Which version of WorkManager are you using ? We fixed a few bugs with respect to PeriodicWork and force-stopping of apps in alpha05. alpha06 is out, and I recommend you try using it. If you still have the same problem, please report back on the issue tracker with a reproducible test case on the issue tracker.

Answer 2

<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />

Add these permissions in your manifest file it may work.
