TCP Socket in BG service is terminated when device enters sleep mode.

Hi All

I have created a background service in which I am using the tcp socket connection. When the app is live either in background/foreground, the connection is working as expected. But when the clover device goes to sleep, the service is stopped terminating the socket. I have used the WakeLock with PowerManager.PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK and WifiLock to keep the CPU alive, but this also does not keep the cpu alive. It kills my service again.

Then I used the PowerManager.SCREEN_DIM_WAKE_LOCK | PowerManager.ON_AFTER_RELEASE flags so that my clover device be in DIM state and it works. This is not a correct approach to fix this as this always keep the clover screen ON.

Please let us know the suggested solution for that.

Guaravdeep,

Any specific reason why your app should retain the TCP connection open?
