Tizen Developers

I am working on a service application to detect acceleration values greater than a treshold continuously.

Is it possible to keep reading acceleration values when the device (GEAR SPORT = wearable 3.0) is set to power save mode?

I have been searching for this but only found individual lines of code for HRM sensor reading, that I could not get to work for my purpose.

I am beginner with tizen native implementation, so I would be very grateful for any help.

Here's my code so far:

#include <tizen.h> // standard header from the template
#include <service_app.h> // standard header from the template
#include "accelerationservice.h" // a header automatically created along with the template

// headers that will be needed for our service:
#include <sensor.h>
#include <player.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <dlog.h> // for logging purposes
#include <device/haptic.h>

static void device_vibrate(int duration, int feedback) {
    haptic_device_h haptic_handle;
	haptic_effect_h effect_handle;

	if(device_haptic_open(0, &haptic_handle) == DEVICE_ERROR_NONE) {

		dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "Connection to vibrator established");

		if(device_haptic_vibrate(haptic_handle, duration, feedback, &effect_handle) == DEVICE_ERROR_NONE) {
			dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "Device vibrates!");
		}
//		To stop vibration which are being played use below code with proper handles
		//if(device_haptic_stop(haptic_handle, effect_handle) == DEVICE_ERROR_NONE) {
		//	dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "Device vibration stopped");
		//}

//		When you decided not to use haptic anymore disconnect it
		//if(device_haptic_close(haptic_handle) == DEVICE_ERROR_NONE) {
		//	dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "Vibrator disconnected");
		//}
	}
}

// some constant values used in the app
#define MAX_PATH_SIZE 4096 // max file path size
#define ACCELEROMETER_SHAKE_THRESHOLD_VALUE 15 // the value read on any accelerometer axis to be considered the shake event


// application data (context) that will be passed to functions when needed
typedef struct appdata
{
	sensor_h sensor; // sensor handle
	sensor_listener_h listener; // sensor listener handle
	char sound_path[MAX_PATH_SIZE]; // a path to a sound file that is used as an alarm
} appdata_s;

{

	appdata_s* ad = (appdata_s*)user_data;

	if (sensor_listener_start(ad->listener) == SENSOR_ERROR_NONE)
	{
		dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "Sensor listener started again.");
	}
