Phonegap Plugin working together with Activity

[אבינועם‎]

I am building a Plugin service manager for a "special" Alarm Clock.

The first problem is that i am new to Android but have a lot's of experience in Java.

The Problem is my class Extends Android Activity,
And I Just dont know how to Make Triggers in my Phonegap Plugin to call my Class ??

I tried Creating a new intent in my Plugin but when I call on startActivity() function the program doesn't want to compile.
When I read about it all i get is that Only class that Extends Activity can call other Activities.

Another friend said to me "you need to pass the context of the main activity and then you can do anything".
Obviously I cant pass the context from javascript :)
But when i try the function getApplicationContext(); it does not compile...
Same issue as before....

Any Suggestion or small Example will be most appreciated,

I read a bit more and got to the point that that in phonagap plugin i can get context from:

this.ctx

Now my program compiles but it crashes...
my code is pretty simple and it's inside the plugin class to check if it works directly without another class in the middle :

context= this.ctx;
Intent myIntent= new Intent(context, com.Somthing.MyAlarmService.class);
pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getService(context, 0, myIntent, 0);
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
calendar.add(Calendar.SECOND, 10);
alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, calendar.getTimeInMillis(), pendingIntent);

and some of the error log

06-12 16:48:35.006: INFO/ActivityManager(67): Starting activity: Intent { cmp=com.Somthing/.MyAlarmClock }
06-12 16:48:35.297: DEBUG/dalvikvm(524): newInstance failed: no <init>()
