You can use broadcast receiver instead of activity like this
public class GeofenceReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver
implements
GoogleApiClient.ConnectionCallbacks,
GoogleApiClient.OnConnectionFailedListener,
ResultCallback<Status>{
GoogleApiClient mGoogleApiClient;
PendingIntent mGeofencePendingIntent ;
Context mContext;
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
mContext = context;
mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(mContext)
.addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
.addConnectionCallbacks(this)
.addApi(LocationServices.API)
.build();
mGoogleApiClient.connect();
}
@Override
public void onConnected(@Nullable Bundle bundle) {
try {
LocationServices.GeofencingApi.addGeofences(
mGoogleApiClient,
// The GeofenceRequest object.
getGeofencingRequest(),
getGeofencePendingIntent()
).setResultCallback(this); // Result processed in onResult().
} catch (SecurityException securityException) {
Log.i(getClass().getSimpleName(),securityException.getMessage());
}
}
// Catch exception generated if the app does not use ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission.
@Override
public void onConnectionSuspended(int i) {
}
@Override
public void onConnectionFailed(@NonNull ConnectionResult connectionResult) {
}
/**
* Runs when the result of calling addGeofences() and removeGeofences() becomes available.
* Either method can complete successfully or with an error.
*
* Since this activity implements the {@link ResultCallback} interface, we are required to
* define this method.
*
* @param status The Status returned through a PendingIntent when addGeofences() or
* removeGeofences() get called.
*/
@Override
public void onResult(@NonNull Status status) {
if (status.isSuccess()) {
Log.i(getClass().getSimpleName(),"Success");
} else {
// Get the status code for the error and log it using a user-friendly message.
Log.i(getClass().getSimpleName(),getErrorString(status.getStatusCode()));
}
}
private GeofencingRequest getGeofencingRequest() {
GeofencingRequest.Builder builder = new GeofencingRequest.Builder();
builder.setInitialTrigger(GeofencingRequest.INITIAL_TRIGGER_ENTER | GeofencingRequest.INITIAL_TRIGGER_DWELL);
builder.addGeofences(getGeofecne());
return builder.build();
}
private List<Geofence> getGeofecne(){

//add one object

// transition. We track entry and exit transitions in this sample.
.setTransitionTypes(

//it's must to set time in millis with dwell transition
.setLoiteringDelay(3000)
// Create the geofence.
.build());
return mGeofenceList;
}
private PendingIntent getGeofencePendingIntent() {
// Reuse the PendingIntent if we already have it.
if (mGeofencePendingIntent != null) {
return mGeofencePendingIntent;
}
Intent intent = new Intent(mContext, GeofenceTransitionsIntentService.class);
return PendingIntent.getService(mContext, 0, intent, PendingIntent.
