Description
Hello!
I noticed that when using HeadlessJsTaskService, the timers do not run as expected. I did some investigations and I found out that React Native uses Android's Choreographer to schedule the timers.
I am testing the app on a real device: Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra.
Apparently, Samsung's OneUI pauses the Choreographer when the app goes into background.
In order to fix this, React Native should use another technique to get "ticks", like a Handler or something, at least for the timers (I saw UI events are also processed using Choreographer).
Steps to reproduce
- Install the application using "yarn android"
- Open up Android Studio with Logcat open
- Wait for the background service to start
- Put the app in foreground by going on the home screen
- Look in the logs and wait for the line with "CoreRune.SYSPERF_ACTIVE_APP_BBA_ENABLE : stop animation in background states"

Línea de trabajo
Comienza con el punto de entrada HeadlessJsTaskService y la ruta de programación de temporizadores de Android que utiliza Choreographer. Reproduce el problema con el reproducer obligatorio mientras observas Logcat y verifica que los temporizadores sigan ejecutándose en segundo plano sin alterar el comportamiento existente en primer plano.
