Oppo Realme1 Job Schduler Min interval for Periodic Work is 1 hr


Currently I am using WorkManager 1.0.0-alpha05. I set periodic Work Request using below code. When interval is below 1 hr then In Oppo Realme (Android Version - 8.1.0 , ColorOSVersion V5.0) job execute at 1 hr. When interval greater than 1 hr job execute at exact time . when interval is smaller than 1 hr then job execute at 1 hr.

Please let me know any log or information required :

Code For Schdule Periodic Job:

PeriodicWorkRequest uploadWork = new PeriodicWorkRequest.
                Builder(LocationUpdatesJobService.class ,interval, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS)
                .addTag(Constants.Location.TAG_BACKGROUND_LOCATION_PERIODIC)
                .setConstraints(constraints).build();
            WorkManager.getInstance().enqueueUniquePeriodicWork(
                    Constants.Location.TAG_BACKGROUND_LOCATION_PERIODIC,
                    ExistingPeriodicWorkPolicy.REPLACE, uploadWork);

in all other device Periodic Work request interval is proper. In Oppo Realme 1 work execute at 1 hr.

I debug Job Schduler using below command: adb shell dumpsys jobscheduler

I also try Using different library. I found same behavior in Job Scheduler and Android-Job. job period length is 15 min but execute at 1 hr but when i try using firebase job dispatcher job execute at correct 15 min interval time.

i debug Job Scheduler and Android-Job using below command: adb shell dumpsys jobscheduler

Job Scheduler:

Firebase Job Dispatcher:

I debug firebase job Dispatcher using below command: adb shell "dumpsys activity service GcmService | grep com.jobscheduler_periodic"

Solution

  • This happens to be an OEM bug. Unfortunately, it is very hard to work around these kind of bugs, in a battery efficient way. If you want a period of 15 mins, I suggest using the following workaround:

    Use a OneTimeWorkRequest instead of a periodic work request, and upon first execution of the first work request, schedule a second from inside the worker with an initialDelay of 15 mins. That will essentially give you what you want.
