Android : How Can A Service Call StartService On Itself?
Jul 19, 2010
I have a Service which is typically bound to, but sometimes needs to go into a mode where it should be active even if nobody is bound to it. Therefore, startService() must be called so it can be explicitly started & stopped. In my case, when exactly this should happen is best determined by the service itself, depending on its state (after being bound to). Can the Service (at the appropriate time) just call startService() from it's own Context?

I wanna start a Service and need some Objects in my Service to work with them.
I would like to have an custom constructor like this:
Code:
public MyService(Context context, Button button, Cursor cursor)
But the common way to start a Service is like that:
Code:
intent.setClass(this, MyService.class);
startService(intent);
In an Intent I can only put Data like Strings.
How I can start a Service with some Objects as parameters?

I'm developing a GPS tracking software on android. I need IPC to control the service from different activities. So I decide to develop a remote service with AIDL.This wasn't a big problem but now it's always running into the methods of the interface and not into those of my service class. Maybe someone could help me?If i now try to call a method from an activity for example start(trackId) nothing happens. The binding is OK. When debugging it always runs into the startTracking() in the generated ITrackingServiceRemote.java file and not into my TrackingService class. Where is the problem? I can't find anything wrong.

I am requesting information from a web service in my android app. The web service returns a list of items, each item having a base64 image and some info
First method: simply access the web service and get the result. This means freeze of UI until data is downloaded. Not a good solution
Second method: put the data download in a thread, and display a progress bar with a message.
private void StartGettingData()
{
viewInfo = new Runnable(){
public void run() {
getData(); //from the web service.......................

I have an Activity (A) and a Service (S) which gets started by A like this:
Intent i = new Intent();
i.putExtra("updateInterval", 10);
i.setClassName("com.blah", "com.blah.S");
startService(i);
A have a function like this one in A: public void someInfoArrived(Info i) Now I want to call A.someInfoArrived(i) from within S. Intent.putExtra has no version where I could pass an Object reference etc.

I'm getting a Java Socket Exception "Operation timed out" when trying to call a .NET web service method. I've followed the many examples out there on the web to get my android to call a .net web service.
I'm running the web service using VS2010 in debug mode. The web method I'm calling is very simple -> "string GetVersion()"
I've read some posts that eclipse needs to be configured to access the internet by modifying the Proxy preferences "Preferences -> General -> Network Connections" from the Window menu item. I haven't been able to figure out exactly what I need to configure in the Proxy to get things to work if that is the problem.
I've also tried to access the .net web service root page (service.asmx) from my android with no success. I can access the asmx page with no problems using IE on the local machine. I've turned off the firewall and that didn't solve anything either. This is the first time I've tried to access a web service from a remote computer when it was running using VS2010 in debug mode.
I don't know if I have a configuration issue on the eclipse side or on the VS2010 side.
I'm also running Windows 7 Home Premium.
Below is a code snippet...

I made two applications. One for an activity receiving user input, the other for a background service. In the service package, I create two files (startSensorBroadReceiver.java, remoteService.java). StartSensorBroadReceiver will receiver an intent from activity application and call method inside of the service. There is no erron in the codes but I can not excute what is want. I meet a message like this "The application ServiceExample has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." could you let me know. what is wrong? and how I can call service methods from broadcastReceiver?

I'm rather new to Android, so please bear with me. I'm developing an application running a service in the background. The service is ONLY supposed to run when requested somewhere in the UI. The service must be able to be stopped through the UI as well. At the same time, while running, the service must be able to pick up intents such as "intent.action.DATA_SMS_RECEIVED" and "intent.action.NEW_OUTGOING_CALL".

I didn't find a sufficient answer to my problem in any posts, if there already is one, please excuse and point me to it, thanks. I made 2 projects. project 1 hast an activity that binds to a service from project 2 on a button click (all just for testing).
How can I make project 1 know (import) my TestInterface (from TestInterface.aidl out of project 2) for usage in: "TestInterface mService = (TestInterface) TestInterface.Stub.asInterface(service);"
without adding project 2 to the build path, because if I'd have an installed service without the project code, I couldn't do it this way, too...?? I read in one thread that TestInterface.aidl should just be added to project 1, too, but if I do this, in DDMS enforceInterface() complains and seems to just see/use the interface from project 1 and it doesn't work.

I'm trying to call a RESTful web service from an Android application using the following method:
CODE:................
I can browse to address and see the xml results using the Android Emulator browser and from my machine. I have given my app the INTERNET permission.
I'm developing with eclipse.
I've seen it mentioned that I might need to configure a proxy but since the web service i'm calling is on port 80 this shouldn't matter should it? I can call the method with the browser.

I'm trying to send a call to a web service which takes in two values - one which is a simple integer but the other one is a date value, which is the format of 'dd MMM yyyy'. Apparently the date is fine as a string so I've use the simpledateformat to set it up in the correct fashion.
However when I give the webservice the values it gives me an error message of; Server was unable to read request. --->There is an error in XML document(1,357). ---> The string '19 Oct 2011' is not a valid ALLXsc value.
The webservice is called by clicking a button. Here is the button code snippet (the rightNow value is a date variable declared earlier that simply gets the current date);
public
void onClick(View arg0) {
SimpleDateFormat dateformatDDMMMYYYY =
new SimpleDateFormat("dd MMM yyyy");
[code]...
When it is run it always goes to the catch part and displays the error message in the listJ textbox, all of the web service details are fine as I called another webservice form the same location before in the app.

In the 1.6 API, is there a way to ensure that the onStart() method of a Service is called after the service is killed due to memory pressure? From the logs, it seems that the "process" that the service belongs to is restarted, but the service itself is not. I have placed a Log.d() call in the onStart() method, and this is not reached.
