AlarmManager fires alarms at wrong time

by

For api levels below 19 you should use AlarmManager.setRepeating() and your alarms will trigger exactly at specified time. Thou on api levels 19 and above this will no longer work. There was change in android so that all repeating alarms are inexact. So if you would like to achieve exact repeating alarm you should schedule alarm with AlarmManager.setExact() and then when alarm triggers do it again for next week and so on every week.
