Background service not running? #143

Closed thequbit closed 9 years ago

thequbit commented 9 years ago

It didn't look like my background service was running on my app, since I was within a new geo-fence for about 30 minutes (longer then the 15 minute interval rate that we check for new assignments/stories), and the notification of the new assignment didn't pop up. When I opened the app, it popped up right away.

@reustonium thoughts on this? Should I maybe be launching the background stuff from the splash activity rather than the home activity?

So I believe this is not an issue with the background services not running, but the notification not making it up to the Android notification bar. Perhaps we're doing something incorrectly in an activity rather than the background service? More investigation needed.

Note: this is definitely why we aren't getting feedback on posted assignments :(

This was just straight up my fault for commenting out code for test, and then not un-commenting it. Looks to work great now. PR will be in next PR.
