A partial WakeLock is what you want. It will hold the CPU open, even if the screen is off.

To acquire:

PowerManager mgr = (PowerManager)context.getSystemService(Context.POWER_SERVICE);
WakeLock wakeLock = mgr.newWakeLock(PowerManager.PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK, "MyWakeLock");
wakeLock.acquire();

To release:

wakeLock.release();

This answer was taken from this link: How can I keep my Android service running when the screen is turned off?

Next time, please search more deeply.
