This is working on my projects, place mediaPlayer.setLooping(true); after mediaPlayer.start();

public static void PlayAudio(Context c, int id){
        mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(c, id);
        soundPool = new SoundPool(4, AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC,50);
        if (!mediaPlayer.isPlaying())
        {
            isPlayingAudio = true;
            mediaPlayer.start();
            mediaPlayer.setLooping(true);
        }
    }

Happy Coding

This is a working code that i used in my project 

 if (Flags.notificationReceived) {
                        showAlert(Flags.patientModel);
                        Flags.notificationReceived = false;
                        mp.start();
                        mp.setLooping(true);
                        vibrate(2000);
                    }

This one works for me. (written in Kotlin)

 val uri = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_ALARM)
 var mp = MediaPlayer.create(context, uri)
 mp.isLooping = true
 mp.start()

For stop, you should call your stop() function:

mp.stop()
