How do some android app make their service restart even if killed from task manager? A good example is Lookout security app. What I guess is that it has registered for all common events that are announced like app installed unistalled, interenet available ,etc.Is this a way to keep your service running ?Another solution I found was to make 2 services monitoring each other, so if one gets killed restart another.Which one would be a proper approach? Is there any way in android to start booting automatically(if device is switched off) once connected to power source? I have never heard this on mobile platform.This is possible for PC through bios feature. Can it be done on android?

I have just started using services in Android and I have a made a simple service that is polling a server every 20 seconds. Now how can I get this data from my main activity (when it is active)? Alternatively the service could send it back do my main activity (but only if its active). I don't want to wake up my activity. I have read SDK examples of "Binding" but I can't find an example how to actually get something from the service. Just how to start and stop the Binding. From the example. If I have the "mBoundService" object in my activity how do I get my data from the service method called eg. "polling Data()"?

I want the application to run in background. This application should run continuously and should never get killed. Will running application as Service solve this issue? The application should get started automatically on start up. I don't need any GUI for this application. The main issue is Service getting Killed. Does service get killed ? and in what conditions will that happen?

I have an app that has a service with it. This service is started the first time you open the app is is suppose to run continuously in the background every two minutes. It seems that at some point though the service stops running or alarmManager stops scheduling/doing what is requested of it. Here is a breakdown of my code flow.
User opens the app,. Service is started, Inside the service I cancel any alarms that might be for this app then create a new one set for two minutes out, Once the alarm is set I call a GPS location check to get lat/lon, I then call up a .net web service to do some stuff with the lat/lon, Once text is returned I check that text for certain Items, If a certain item is found I send a broadcast out to a receiver that then creates a wakelock, starts a new intent to open an activity of my app then sounds an alarm, Right after I broadcast I call stopSelf() as well as calling stopSelf() if the text did not contain certain Items, I call finish() on the new activity I started if we go that far once the Active screen of my app is closed.
The reason I think something is dieing out here is because after some point in time usually once I wake up in the morning and check the phone I no longer see my GPS icon on my droid checking every two minutes.

how to check that the service with some name is running once? also if i go out from my activity then my service is running & when i come to my activity the onCreate method is called so my service is created again in this case or running service will be attached again?
public class ServiceExampleActivity extends Activity { Intent intent; Button start,stop; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); intent = new Intent(this, ServiceExample.class); // service example is service class Log.i("-----service------", "Service Created"); }

How do I check if a background service (on Android) is running? I want an android activity that toggles the state of the service -- lets me turn it on if it is off and off if it is on.

I have a service running in background. I start it from an Activity, but i want to recovery an instance of that service from other activity (in the same app) in order to call one method.

I have a service that downloads something from the Internet, it shows progress in notifications and in MyActivity (only when MyActivity is on foreground of course). How should the service post the progress to MyActivity? I know this could be done somehow with IBind but can I just simply do this in MyActivity:
MySevice.myActivity = this; startService(new Intent(....));
From MyService I can now call MyActivity's methods because I have a static reference to it in MySevice.myActivity, so I can call e.g. myActivity.sendProgress(63).

I intended to show a dialog in a service process, then I tried to use the AlertDialog but got the below error message: WindowManager$BadTokenException: Unable to add window -- token null is not for an application The reason seems to be that the dialog is not used in a application context (activity should be fine?) Was there any way that can solve this problem?

I have a service running a background thread. What I'd like to do is to show an AlertDialog initiated from my background thread. I know that this is not the recommended way of notifying the user and that it interrupts the workflow (as they can pop-up in any application at any time) but it's a suitable way for my use case. There is a handler registered with the background thread and showing a Toast notification withing the handler works fine. But after switching to an AlertDialog nothing happens anymore. My showDialog logic is silently ignored. No Dialog window appears, no log entry. It's a bit strange as I'd expect at least a log entry saying that I'm doing something wrong or whatever. Are there any limitations for showing an AlertDialog initiated from a service background thread? Some people seem to recommend a Dialog themed Activity to get a similar behavior.

I have an application that starts on boot using a broadcast receiver, also I have an activity and a process, because the service must run always on the background I am starting the service on it's own process using the android:process manifest tag.The ui is only for presentational needs and I would like the user to be able to run the service even if the activity is not active.when I press the back button or the home button the activity's on destroy method is called and the service although seems its running (it appears on the task manager) its not behaving as supposed, it should connect to the net and send some data but every X time using an timer task but the task never fires so the data are never send.

Is there a way I can test if there are any other activities in my app still alive? I am looking to stop a service in an onDestroy method, but only want to do this if there are no other activities from my app still alive on the stack.
I have the call stop the service in the main activity's onDestroy() method. This works perfect EXCEPT that if a user launches my app, then launches a few activities in my app, then hits the home screen and RELAUNCHES my app, they will subvert my order and the main activity will now be above other activities of my app. From this state, if they hit the back button and 'back out' of my home screen they will trigger the onDestroy() method and kill the service even though there are other activities open on the stack. I want to avoid this by stopping the service ONLY if I am sure there are no other activities of mine open on the stack.

I have an Android service, created in OnCreate of first Activity of the application using StartService(). I need this service to be running throughout the life span of the application ie, all the activities in the application. But the service should not consume the resources after user pressed Home key or Back button. Is there any elegant way to do that other than stopping the service in onPause() method of all the activities?

I'm trying to create a program with a service that runs every 10 seconds, puts the camera preview, taking a picture and then leaving the user to continue his work (closing down). Currently I have two problems:
1. After I'm taking the picture, the preview still there. There's no function like close() to return to the previous activity. How can I return to the previous activity?
2. I'm trying to run the above described activity from the run() function (from the timer class that execute the run() function every 10 seconds). When I do that, a runtime exception is raised. But when I start the above described activity from a button clicked (not from the timer) it works fine.

How can I identify and stop single running services? More specifically, once I got the running services on a List as in a chunk of code like:
ActivityManager activityManager = (ActivityManager) getSystemService(ACTIVITY_SERVICE); List<RunningServiceInfo> services = activityManager.getRunningServices(Integer.MAX_VALUE);
Is there any method to stop a single service, i.e to identify one and then stop it?

Sorry for the newbie question, but does anyone know how I can check whether an IntentService is already running? I'm starting an IntentService from onCreate within a normal Activity, and that means that if the user minimises and maximises the application, it gets called twice. I'm wondering if I need to use something like the solution here http://bit.ly/du3VW5 or whether there's a simpler way.

On my phone, a dev phone, the bluetooth headset service is always running even though bluetooth connectivity is disable in the Settings app. Is this normal?
The ear speaker is not emitting any sound for maybe two weeks now, even if the on-call sound level is at max (5), so I'm checking a few things before I try to send back the phone for repair or exchange.

I'd like to include a feature in my application that would include a running background service that would disable SMS, if certain conditions were met (location for instance). Is there a way I can intercept the user wanting to open any SMS app and block it? Would a Broadcast Receiver be able to do the trick? Maybe a different way to go about this?

I've never quite understood the connection. If you have a Google Voice phone number set to forward those calls to your cell phone, do you need to have the app running on your cell phone for this to work or can it be manually turned off?
I would imagine that the call forwarding would work regardless, but what about the app keeping track of those calls in a call list, or keeping track of the voicemails, etc.? Can you just open the app manually and all of this information will be there, or does it need to be running at all times in order to record the phone calls/voicemail as they come in?
