Android Timer ticks late when phone screen locked

I have a service that runs a TimerTask in a method, which must count every second and do something after some time. My service works properly and when i start the method in service, timer starts to tick every second (1000 milliseconds). The problem is, when device's screen turns off, my timer stops sometimes and doesn't count properly. I can see in the log file that timer stops for 15 seconds, then runs 5 seconds, then stops again... When the device is connected to computer, timer always works normally, this problem occurs when i disconnect the device from computer.

Here's my service:

public class MyService extends Service {
    private String TAG = getClass().getName();

    public void count() {

        Log.i(TAG, "Service Count Method Start");

        int counter;
        Timer mTimer = new Timer();

        mTimer.schedule(new TimerTask() {

            @Override
            public void run() {


                Log.i(TAG, "Timer count value : " + counter);

                if (!someCondition) {
                    counter++;
                    if (DefaultApplication.notOnDisplayTime >= 180) {
                        Log.d(TAG, "APPLICATION REACHED TIME LIMIT!");
                        someCondition = true;

                    } else
                                someCondition = false;
                } else {
                    counter = 0;
                }
            }
        }, 0, 1000);

    }

    @Override
    public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return mBinder;
    }

    public class MyServiceBinder extends Binder {
        public MyService getService() {
            return MyService.this;
        }
    }

    private final IBinder mBinder = new MyServiceBinder();
    @Override
    public boolean onUnbind(Intent intent) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Log.i(TAG, "MyService Unbound");
        return super.onUnbind(intent);
    }
}

And here's the logcat output:

You can see that after the screen locked, timer doesn't seem to tick every second. It stops for 15 - 20 seconds periods then works normally for 5 seconds...

Any opinion about how to prevent timer to stop when device screen locked?


Sounds like you need a Partial Wake Lock This will stop the CPU from going into a sleep state when the screen is off. Be warned though, misuse can cause battery issues and you need a permission to use wake locks.
