I have an app that every minute launches an IntentService that gets the UsageStats and UsageEvents on this period. I used setExact() method of AlarmManager to set the moment that the IntentService is executed and on the onCreate method of the IntentService i call again to setExact() to schedule the execution of the IntentService the next minute. I did this because the method setRepeating() of AlarmManager didn't perform with accuracy on one minute periods. The code i use is:
alarmM.setExact(AlarmManager.ELAPSED_REALTIME,SystemClock.elapsedRealtime()+60000,alarmAppIntent);
This performs correctly most of times and when the device is charging. However, when the device is in normal use sometimes the service stops repeating every minute (i create a notification everytime the service executes to see if the service continues executing) and when the IntentService stops repeating Logcat says:

The device i am using is a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Pro with MIUI 9.2 (Android 6.0). I've tried to set no battery economizer to the app but the problem continues.
Is there some way to stop the app dying using other libraries or configuration?
