Android Question Launching the application at the required time

[Sergey_New]

Couldn't figure out how to do it right.
In the attached example, an error occurs. Please help and fix the code.

1.

StartServiceAt(Me, NextTimeInstance(21, 50) ,True)

Is a code to start A SERVICE! You CAN NOT start an activity as a Service.

FORGET about Activities: Switch to B4XPages. And use a SERVICE to start with StartServiceAt

Thanks, but I'm not ready to move on to B4XPages yet. Please fix my example to make it work.

Please fix my example to make it work.

ME? WHY?

I told you the solution. Fix it by yourself.
Add a service to your app and use the code in this service to reshedule the service.

 

[Sergey_New]

ME? WHY?

I don't understand how to do it, that's why I asked to correct the example.

 

[DonManfred]

I suggest to read some Tutorials, Documentation, watch learning-sessions. In fact learning the language.

Thank you for not refusing.

Maybe one of the forum participants will be able to fulfill my request, and not answer what I need to read?

The answer in the second post is correct, even if you are not using B4XPages.
The next version of B4A will support receivers. They work better than services for such tasks.

If you want to start an activity while the app is in the background, you need this permission: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/draw-on-top-of-other-apps-permission.90513/

 

[Sergey_New]

you need this permission

Got it, thanks!

The next version of B4A will support receivers.

Very well!
