Alarm with out using UILocalNotification

Is there any way to develop a iphone application without using local notifications. The application should trigger alarm even in Lock state, so that I can make network call on lock state. It may use local notification in background state.

I have managed to trigger alarm using dispatch_walltime even when the app goes to sleep mode. Previously I was using NSTimer and dispatch_time, which will stop working when the app goes to sleep mode. Grand Central Dispatch (GCD) Reference

No, even if you manage to get you app to run in the background, by miss use of the supported background mades, you can only alert the user with a UILocalNotification.
