How to start Service using Alarm Manager in Android?

by

This is what I have used, for starting service after 30 seconds from current time,

Intent intent = new Intent(DashboardScreen.this, ServiceClass.class);
PendingIntent pintent = PendingIntent.getService(DashboardScreen.this, 0, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
alarm.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, cal.getTimeInMillis(), 30*1000, pintent);

Try it, and let me know what happen…

EDIT:

In your manifest.xml file

 <service android:enabled="true" android:name=".ServiceClass" />
