    I'm trying to test the behavior of my Android app when the OS goes in Doze mode. I'm using a gennymotion emulator running Android API 25. The application launches an IntentService through the AlarmManager using the method setExact with type RTC_WAKEUP. I set the alarm to fire after 1 minute (only for testing purposes).I succeed to put the emulator in IDLE state by running the suggested dumpsys (force-idle) command.
    When the device is IDLE I'm still able to see the IntentService being launched by the alarm. This should not be the expected behavior according to the docs. I was expecting the opposite(since according to docs, setExact() is not triggered if the device is on doze mode).
    I have even tested this on a real device (running Android 6) and getting the same results.

    Is this a bug? Or am I missing something?

    Moving this to the developer forum for better exposure. (And I apologize for not giving you an answer, but I've never played with setExact() or doze.)
