I am checking if the alarm has already been set by the AlarmManager using this answer .
Following is my code snippet.
boolean alarmUp = (PendingIntent.getBroadcast(MainActivity.this, 0,
new Intent(MainActivity.this, AlarmReceiver.class), PendingIntent.FLAG_NO_CREATE) != null);
if (alarmUp) {
// alarm is set; do some stuff
}
Intent alarmIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, AlarmReceiver.class);
final PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(MainActivity.this, 0, alarmIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
AlarmManager manager = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
manager.setInexactRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis(), 10 * 1000, pendingIntent);
However, alarmUp
is always being set as true. That is, whether I set the alarm or not, whenever I restart my app, it tell me that alarmUp
is true (I am checking it by making a Toast
).
Please help where I am going wrong.
In order for this check to work, you need to be absolutely sure that the PendingIntent
only exists when the alarm is set. There are 2 things you can do to ensure that is so:
1) When testing your code, make sure that you uninstall your application and then reinstall your application before testing it. Uninstalling your app will remove any PendingIntent
s that your app might have created that are still pending.
2) When you cancel the alarm, make sure that you also cancel the PendingIntent
. You can do this with
Intent alarmIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, AlarmReceiver.class);
final PendingIntent pendingIntent =
PendingIntent.getBroadcast(MainActivity.this, 0, alarmIntent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_NO_CREATE);
if (pendingIntent != null) {
pendingIntent.cancel();
}
Since API 21 you can use
public AlarmManager.AlarmClockInfo getNextAlarmClock ()
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/AlarmManager.html#getNextAlarmClock()
Now, the code that you are trying to use:
(PendingIntent.getBroadcast(MainActivity.this, 0,
new Intent(MainActivity.this, AlarmReceiver.class), PendingIntent.FLAG_NO_CREATE) != null);
Bassically you are asking for a previus and existent intent called AlarmReceiver. But his AlarmReceiver refers to your own BroadcastReceiver.
As you can see in this line of the answer that you posted before:
boolean alarmUp = (PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0,
new Intent("com.my.package.MY_UNIQUE_ACTION"),
PendingIntent.FLAG_NO_CREATE) != null);
They use "MY_UNIQUE_ACTION" to see if the intent exists.
Also in this site you can see a tutorial using that:
http://justcallmebrian.com/2010/04/27/using-alarmmanager-to-schedule-activities-on-android/
Unless you are able to access the android-system AlarmReceiver and see if the intent exists, you will not be able to ask for a 'generic' scheduled alarm. Is that what you are trying to do? If it's the case, are you sure that in case that you don't have any scheduled alarm the android-system AlarmReceiver intent was not created by the system anyway? Seems we don't have control to those components like we like to.
