How to call IntentService from WakefulBroadcastReceiver
<p>I have an <code>IntentService</code> defined as below:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;service android:name=".service.AppService" android:process=":app_process" android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher" /&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>I have a <code>WakefulBroadcastReceiver</code> that receives some data and I would like to call my already running service above. The service above is always running, even if it is killed, it restarts. How can I pass messages to that?</p>

<p>I read the following:</p>

<p>I tried to do a <code>startService</code>, <code>PendingIntent</code> among other things and nothing seems to work.</p>
