    copied!<p>I have to following code to call the BroadcastReceiver:</p> <pre><code> public class WorkItemAlarmManager { ... public void initAlarm(HelpMe helpMe, String delay,String period,WorkItem workItem){ //HelpMe = Activity helpMe.registerReceiver(new WorkItemAlarmHandler() , new IntentFilter("WORK_ITEM_ALARM")); Intent intent = new Intent("WORK_ITEM_ALARM"); intent.setClass(helpMe, WorkItemAlarmManager.class); intent.putExtra("work_item", workItem); PendingIntent mAlarmSender = PendingIntent.getService(helpMe, 0,intent, 0); Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance(); calendar.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis()); //System.out.println("START"+System.currentTimeMillis()); calendar.add(Calendar.SECOND, calcDelayMillis(delay)); //System.out.println("END"+calendar.getTimeInMillis()); AlarmManager am = (AlarmManager) helpMe.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE); am.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(), mAlarmSender); } ... } </code></pre> <p>and the BroadcastReceiver:</p> <pre><code>public class WorkItemAlarmHandler extends BroadcastReceiver{ @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { .... } } </code></pre> <p>But the WorkItemAlarmHandler is never called.</p> <p>Update: I tried to register the BroadcastReceiver in the manifest at first. But that didn't work:</p> <pre><code>&lt;receiver android:name="de.helpme.alarm.WorkItemAlarmHandler" android:enabled="true" android:label="WorkItemAlarmHandler" &gt; &lt;intent-filter&gt; &lt;action android:name="WORK_ITEM_ALARM" /&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/receiver&gt; </code></pre> <p>Thanks for your answers :). Now it works - but i dont yet know which one is the correct because i implemented both answers at once. If a figure out which was the right one i mark the right as answer.</p> <p><strong>Update:</strong> The cause of the problem as i see it was:</p> <pre><code>PendingIntent mAlarmSender = PendingIntent.getService(helpMe, 0,intent, 0); </code></pre> <p>With this code it works fine:</p> <pre><code>PendingIntent mAlarmSender = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(helpMe, 0, intent, 0); </code></pre> <p>Thanks again for all your help!</p>
