Ok, that's a receiver.
I am guessing that your receiver uses startActivity. If you do that,
beware of sleep/wake states, it's documented here:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/AlarmManager.html
Android guarantees that for Wakeup-type alarms delivered to a broadcast
receiver, it will keep the device from falling back to sleep only for
the duration of the receiver's onReceive.
If that's too short, and your code needs to do more, especially an
asynchronous operation (such as starting an Activity or a Service), then
it's up to your code to acquire a WakeLock to keep the device awake as
long as needed for that.
There is an example at the top of this page:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/PowerManager.html
Basically, the structure should be -
onReceive()
Call startService or startActivity
Acquire a WakeLock
[return]
--- lock is held, device is still awake ---
Android processes "startActivity" call
Your activity is created and started
onResume releases the wake lock so it's not held forever
Somewhere in there should be some kind of error handling, so that if
something goes wrong, the device is not held awake indefinitely (or
rather, until the battery runs out - which won't be long).

An Activity that extends a Broadcast receiver? Sorry, I'm not sure I
understand what this means.
Do you mean something else - like a BroadcastReceiver subclass that
starts an Activity subclass?
