wakeup - Wake Android Device up

Question

Hey i need to wake my sleeping android device up at a certain time. Any suggestions?

P.S. Wake up: turn display on and maybe unlock phone

Answer 1

To wake up the screen:

PowerManager pm = (PowerManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.POWER_SERVICE);
WakeLock wakeLock = pm.newWakeLock((PowerManager.SCREEN_BRIGHT_WAKE_LOCK | PowerManager.FULL_WAKE_LOCK | PowerManager.ACQUIRE_CAUSES_WAKEUP), "TAG");
wakeLock.acquire();

To release the screen lock:

KeyguardManager keyguardManager = (KeyguardManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.KEYGUARD_SERVICE); 
KeyguardLock keyguardLock = keyguardManager.newKeyguardLock("TAG");
keyguardLock.disableKeyguard();

And the manifest needs to contain:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.DISABLE_KEYGUARD" />

For more details about PowerManager, refer to the API documentation: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/PowerManager.html
