MAUI: Android: Foreground service is not running

I have integrated foreground service like below in my MAUI application.

MyForegroundService.cs under Platforms.Android

// MyForegroundService.cs
using Android.App;
using Android.Content;
using Android.Content.PM;
using Android.OS;
using AndroidX.Core.App;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Resource = Microsoft.Maui.Resource;

[Service(ForegroundServiceType = ForegroundService.TypeLocation)]
public class MyForegroundService : Service
{
    private const int ServiceRunningNotificationId = 10000;
    private bool isRunning = true;

    public override void OnCreate()
    {
        base.OnCreate();
        System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("MyForegroundService: OnCreate");
        StartForeground(ServiceRunningNotificationId, BuildNotification());
    }

    public override StartCommandResult OnStartCommand(Intent intent, StartCommandFlags flags, int startId)
    {
        System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("MyForegroundService: OnStartCommand");
        Task.Run(async () =>
        {
            try
            {
                while (isRunning)
                {
                    System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("MyForegroundService: Timer Tick");
                    await Task.Delay(10000);
                }
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("MyForegroundService crashed: " + ex.Message);
            }
        });
        return StartCommandResult.Sticky;
    }

    public override IBinder OnBind(Intent intent) => null;

    public override void OnDestroy()
    {
        isRunning = false;
        base.OnDestroy();
    }

    Notification BuildNotification()
    {
        var channelId = "foreground_service_channel";
        var channelName = "Background Timer";
        var manager = (NotificationManager)GetSystemService(NotificationService);

        if (Build.VERSION.SdkInt >= BuildVersionCodes.O)
        {
            var channel = new NotificationChannel(channelId, channelName, NotificationImportance.Default);
            manager.CreateNotificationChannel(channel);
        }

        var notification = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this, channelId)
            .SetContentTitle("Background Task Running")
            .SetContentText("Your timer is active every 10 seconds.")
            .SetSmallIcon(Resource.Drawable.ic_notification) // Replace with your icon
            .SetOngoing(true)
            .Build();

        return notification;
    }
}

BackgroundService.cs under Platforms.Android

using AlertBuddies.Service;
using Android.Content;
using Android.OS;
using Microsoft.Maui.Controls;
using Android.App;
using Application = Android.App.Application;
using Android.Content.PM;

[assembly: Dependency(typeof(AlertBuddies.Platforms.Android.BackgroundService))]
namespace AlertBuddies.Platforms.Android
{
    public class BackgroundService : IBackgroundService
    {
        public void Start()
        {
            System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("BackgroundService.Start() called");

            var context = Application.Context;

            var intent = new Intent(context, Java.Lang.Class.FromType(typeof(MyForegroundService)));

            if (Build.VERSION.SdkInt >= BuildVersionCodes.O)
                context.StartForegroundService(intent);
            else
                context.StartService(intent);
        }

        public void Stop()
        {
            var context = Application.Context;
            var intent = new Intent(context, Java.Lang.Class.FromType(typeof(MyForegroundService)));
            context.StopService(intent);
        }
    }
}

Created an Interface IBackgroundService in Single Solution:

public interface IBackgroundService
{
    void Start();
    void Stop();
}

Added permission in AndroidManifest.xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" />

//added under application tag
<service
    android:name=".MyForegroundService"
    android:foregroundServiceType="location"
    android:enabled="true"
    android:exported="false" />

Finally I started the service from main project like below:

DependencyService.Get<IBackgroundService>()?.Start();

After running the project nothing is happening. I have added a debugger in BackgroundService and that is also not showing in output box.

System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("BackgroundService.Start() called");

what I am missing here?

My Requirement: I am running a timer in every 10 seconds and sending the location details to MQTT. But when the app is in background the timer stops. I want to run the timer and send the location details when the app is in foreground, background and even if the device is locked(app is in foreground or background). For implementing it I am trying to use the foreground services in android.
