Just modify the code alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(), pendingIntent) in AndroidAlarmService class to alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(), 5*1000, pendingIntent).
public void onClick(View arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent myIntent = new Intent(AndroidAlarmService.this, MyAlarmService.class);
pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getService(AndroidAlarmService.this, 0, myIntent, 0);
AlarmManager alarmManager = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE);
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
calendar.add(Calendar.SECOND, 10);
//alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(), pendingIntent);
alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(), 5*1000, pendingIntent);
Toast.makeText(AndroidAlarmService.this, "Start Alarm", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}});
public void setRepeating (int type, long triggerAtTime, long interval, PendingIntent operation), like set(int, long, PendingIntent), except you can also supply a rate at which the alarm will repeat.

hello sathya,
I think you can set the first alarm fire using alarmManager.set, then set the subsequence using alarmManager.setRepeating in the first fire.

hi,
i tried using this: alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(), 5*1000, displayIntent);
however it repeat like every 5 sec(think so).. but i don't want that..
what i want is repeat the same time
everyday.. means i set the alarm once, and it will alarm the same time everyday eg. alarm clock
is there anything to do with 5*1000 on the code?
Nur Adilah you want the alarm to repeat every 24h, so you should set the repeating time to:
24*3600*1000
(24 hours, every hour with 3600 secs, 1000 times because you have to specify the repeating time in milis)
I think that should work :)
i tried using this: alarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(), 5*1000, displayIntent);
Why i cannot cancel the alarm ?

Anyone can help on this ?
