Why the JobService did not repeat?

Question

I am trying to developing JobScheduler, and I want the App to do something every 1 minute when App has been killed by system.

AndroidManifest.xml

<service
    android:name=".BaiduPush.BaiduJobService"
    android:enabled="true"
    android:permission="android.permission.BIND_JOB_SERVICE"/>

MainActivity

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

        binding = DataBindingUtil.setContentView(this, R.layout.activity_main2)


        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
            startJobService()
        }
}

private fun startJobService() {
        Log.d(TAG,"startBaiduJobService")
        val JOB = 10
        val jobScheler = getSystemService((Context.JOB_SCHEDULER_SERVICE)) as JobScheduler
        val jobinfo = JobInfo.Builder(JOB, ComponentName(packageName,BaiduJobService::class.java.name))
                //.setPeriodic(AlarmManager.INTERVAL_FIFTEEN_MINUTES)
                .setOverrideDeadline(60000)
                .setPersisted(true)
                .build()

        jobScheler.schedule(jobinfo)
    }

BaiduJobService

class BaiduJobService : JobService() {

    val TAG = "BaiduJobService"

    override fun onStartJob(params: JobParameters?): Boolean {
        Log.d(TAG,"BaiduJobService onStartJob")
        return true
    }
    override fun onStopJob(params: JobParameters?): Boolean {
        return false
    }

}

When I use the setPeriodic(AlarmManager.INTERVAL_FIFTEEN_MINUTES). The onStartJob has not been called.

When I use the setOverrideDeadline(60000). The onStartJob only show once times at the first.

But the BaiduJobService seems not called when time is up.

Did I missing something? Thanks in advance.

I am Using Alarm Manager For Keep my service alive it is better than a job scheduler. I implement this code in service oncreate() method.

public class CallService extends Service {

        @Override
        public void onCreate() {
            super.onCreate();
            Intent intent = new Intent(this, RestartServiceBroadcast.class);
            mKeepAlivePendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
            ((AlarmManager) this.getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE)).setRepeating(AlarmManager.ELAPSED_REALTIME_WAKEUP, SystemClock.elapsedRealtime() + 60000, 60000, mKeepAlivePendingIntent);
        }

    }

Create BroadcastReceiver to call service again in onRecieve

public class RestartServiceBroadcast extends BroadcastReceiver {
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        if (intent.getAction().equals("service.RestartService")) {
        // Here Call a Service
    }

    }
}

Manifest Like this

 <receiver
                android:name=".service.receiver.RestartServiceBroadcast"
                android:enabled="true"
                android:exported="true"
                android:process=":sipStack">
                <intent-filter>
                    <action android:name="service.RestartService" />
                </intent-filter>
   </receiver>

        <service
            android:name=".service.CallService"
            android:enabled="true"
            android:exported="false"
            android:stopWithTask="false">

        </service>
