Hi
Don't know if this is obvious.....
Maybe this will help someone else.
(Using the StartServiceAt and not the android.app.Service.START_STICKY)
Struggling for 2 days to get a background service to stay active.
At last i found the problem , DO NOT USE ANY DATA from the activity screen in your service.
I had one string that i pulled from the main screen , the service will run for 5 minutes after pressing power button to lock screen and then just stop.
Now it's running fine.
Hope it helps.
