Android :: Unable To Start Service

Sep 4, 2009

My service is not in the same package namespace as my application / activities.

I have

CODE:...........

The issue is that my service is in -- package com.myco.service.myservice and my activity is in -- package com.myco.test.myactivity

My questions are:

1. does my service *have* to be in the com.myco.test namespace?

2. if it doesn't, how do I specify the android:name for my activity and my service to work?

Android :: Activity Is Unable To Start Service In Same Package / What I Am Missing?

Jun 9, 2009

I have a service class my.app.MyService that I'm attempting to launch from my.app.MyActivity as follows:

Intent svc = new Intent( this, MyService.class );

The manifest contains the entries:

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

<service android:name =".MyService" />

LogCat gives the message:

"Unable to start service Intent { comp={"my.app/ my.app.MyService" } } : not found"

Could someone kindly let me know what I am missing?

But i am getting the error i mentioned during the bindService call.

It would be great if you could let me know what all permission short of thing to take care, as my Client and Server code are placed at different APks, so do i need to import the Client project in my Server Project, if yes then how to impliment that.

Android :: How To Start A New Thread In Service?

Nov 14, 2010

I am developing an Android app and I am doing some heavy work (bringing data from an online web page and parsing it to store in database) in a service. Currently, it is taking about 20+ mins and for this time my UI is stuck. I was thinking of using a thread in service so my UI doesn't get stuck but it is giving error.

Android :: Start Service Without Using Any Activity

Oct 16, 2009

My application has a background process which continuously waits on a socket for receiving messages and it should be started only once and at the time of application starting.Thus i want to do that background job in a service.

The service should not be started from the activity ,it should be started at the application starting.

How can i define the service,which will be started at the time of application starting?

If at all the service is started from activity.The activity can be destroyed and restarted.when this happens the service also be restarted .

Android :: Intermittent Service Start

May 15, 2009

We have a service. bindService() returns true. But our ServiceConnection is never called with onConnect(). The onCreate() of the service is never executed (neither is the onBind(), of course).

Except sometimes! (twice now, out of many many tries).

Remote service, local service, intent-filter, direct class invocation, "procedure" attribute, no procedure attribute, cupcake, 1.1, emulator, device ... we've tried 'em all!

We belive the service is found, and in the remote case, we see the new process always created ... but the dang service just isn't started. We aren't specifying any security settings and writing the simplest manifest entry we can....

Android :: Service Start And Ui Hanging

Mar 13, 2009

I have moved some intensive processing from my main thread to a service. My UI is hanging and then crashing when I start the service, even if I put the service start in a new thread started via

Thread updateThread = new Thread(null, backgroundRefresh2, "new_thread"); updateThread.start();

What am I doing wrong? Also, it seems like the cause of the eventual crash in the service/worker thread doesn't show up in LogCat.

Android :: Start Service From Launcher

Apr 17, 2009

Is it possible to start a service directly from the launcher by clicking the application icon?

I have no activity just a single service which I want to start when I click on the icon, however when I specify my service's intent-filters it seems that it will not be recognised from the launcher, therefore no icon is visible in android's launcher.

Android :: Start Activity From Service - And Getting Result From It

Feb 11, 2010

I have a Service which needs to receive data from external packages. So, to locate the data providing external packages, I use activity- filter and PackageManager.queryIntentActivities function to locate the interesting packages. Now, from each such package, I need to get a ContentProvider URI. So I want to start the external Activity and the external activity will return a result to my service - something like "startActivityForResult". The problem is that there is no way to call "startActivityForResult" from a Service, only Activity can do that, and my project does not have any Activity, and probably can't show UI for the user.

The bottom line: Can anyone suggest a way to get ContentProvider URI from an external package, while my package has only a Service?

Android :: Start Background Service On Install

Oct 22, 2010

I have an app which runs as a background service only. I'l like it to start up when its installed. As its just a background service it doesnt show up on the pane of installed apps. So there is no way for the user to manually start it. I've already regietered for the BOOT_COMPLETED intent which works but I dont want the user to have to power off the phone after the app has been installed, just so as they can start it.

I've looked at the following intents: ACTION_PACKAGE_ADDED/CHANGED/ REPLACED/RESTARTED/INSTALL, ACTION_SCREEN_ON/OFF, ACTION_USER_PRESENT, ACTION_TIME_TICK,

But it doesnt seem that you can register to listen for them from my manifest.

How I can start my background service without a power off/on?

Android :: Start A Service During Device Boot-up

May 24, 2010

I have written a class which extends the Service class of android and would like to launch the service during device boot-up. From the service I would like to receive the intents such as boot completed and screen off and on. Currently I am using a BroadcastReceiver to get the boot completed intent and then on starting a service to receive screen on and off intents. But I would like to remove either the broadcast receiver or the service. Any inputs.

Android :: How To Start Service Without Rebooting Device?

Jun 17, 2010

I've read the posts that state that there is no way to automatically start a service right after the package is installed. In my case, i have two apps- one runs as a service and collects data, the other displays it. the second app has the Activity which can be used to start the service. in order to provide the most accurate information, the service must be started immediately after installation. however, if the user decides not to run the activity immediately, then there would be a gap between the time the service is installed, versus when it gets started. of course, asking user to reboot after installation is one option, but not a great user experience. Any suggestions on how to achieve this?
