Android Question Huawei stop background services

I will answer myself, I found this https://stackoverflow.com/questions...phones-and-how-to-handle-it/35220476#35220476

One idea, put a code inside of my APP to detect the brand of the phone if Brand _of_ the_phone = "Huawei" show a dialog to explain how too proceed with "Battery Manager" manually. Plop!!!!, well, we can close this thread, I guess.

Have you tried to use a foreground service?

PS: I noticed the service is paused when the Huawei go to sleep. However with the Foreground service works fine when the phone keeps awake. so it is an improvement. before it does not work as a normal service, now the weird is when the phone goes to sleep, pause the service. and when I awake it manually (pressing the turn on the button), the service continues.

I think it will be a must indicate manually to "Power Manager" allow the APP works in the background. I cannot escape.

I did my lab with LG and Huawei, everything ok in LG.

This is the expected behavior. You can acquire a partial lock with PhoneWakeState to keep the CPU running.

You read my mind, I tested that, I put the "partial lock" inside of the service, but when the phone goes to sleep, the service goes to pause. and when I press "the physical power button" the service continue and the logs show "something is already in the partial lock". I am using the servicestartat, I don't know, perhaps if I try with sticky service? I will try. Of course if I setup in the "Power Manager of Huawei it always works fine.!

Thanks, Erel.

It doesn't matter. Foreground service > sticky service.

I guess that Huawei decided to ignore the partial lock.
