IntentService won't start using AlarmManager

Question

I know there is a lot of questions about this but I really don\'t know where is my mistake.

My service is registered in the AndroidManifest.xml file

Answer 1

As in documentation, PendingIntent.getBroadcast() is used to retrieve a PendingIntent that will perform a broadcast, like calling Context.sendBroadcast().

You need to call PendingIntent.getService() instead, which will start IntentService:

PendingIntent pending = PendingIntent.getService(this, 0, alarmIntent, 0);
