Android :: Start A Service During Device Boot-up
May 24, 2010I 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.

Jun 25, 2010I know you can start a service on Boot, but how do I start the service after the app has been installed or reinstalled? I would like to start the service once the app is put on device by Debug/Run of Eclipse.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Start Service At Boot Based On User Settings?
May 6, 2010I'm trying to write an app that consists of an activity that manages a background service. However, I want to implement a user setting for automatically starting the service up at boot time. I have user settings implemented with SharedPreferences and I have the services starting up at boot by using a BroadcastReceiver and listening for BOOT_COMPLETED. However, I can't figure out a good way to implement a setting so that the service is only started at boot if said setting is enabled. I can think of a few cheap ways to do this (such as messing with onCreate() in the service, or creating/checking for a file on SD card) but I want to follow good practice. There must be a good way to do this because there's tons of apps out there that do it, I just can't find anything online about how to do it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: BroadcastReceiver Never Getting Boot Completed Intent
Jan 12, 2010I have a BroadcastReceiver which never enters onReceive(), so to debug I created a bare bones project with a simple BroadcastReceiver and still it never gets the BOOT_COMPLETED intent (see manifest below).
I do see a lot of warnings/errors in my Eclipse log (filtered and after manifest) which didn't seem to cause issues before, but maybe I have a bad install of the emulator? I have all the latest SDK and plugins. I also noticed that when I run the emulator I always get "Waiting for" popup for either Alarm or MMS.
The debugger attaches normally for my main Activity, it's just this "boot" receiver that never seems to start. I've tried using "com.boottest.BootReceiver" instead of".BootReceiver" to no avail.

Android :: Time To First Screen - Boot Up And Application Start Time?
Aug 25, 2009at the moment I am thinking about a new app and need some information to decide whether to develop on Android or an alternative OS. I am particularly interested in "time to first screen", "boot-up time", "time to first Audio" and "app-start" (can be any from the android market or even one of the pre-installed ones) time? Does anyone know a source or perhaps measured those numbers?

The class exists, and has the OnCreate method over-ridden, but whenever I try to perform the action in the simulator I get an ActivityNotFoundException raised. I have looked through the documents and as far as I can read, I do not need to create an Intent in the manifest.xml for this to work.
Android App To Login To Website - Start And Stop Action
Feb 7, 2014I am absolutely new to android and web development. I would like to make an app which I can use to login to my account on a website (URL,,,) and to be able to start and stop the parking time. It should also show the time passed and notify every 30 minutes about it.
I am not looking for code (but of course, it would be nice to have some examples) at this moment but for some tutorial or a list of functions which I need to program to make such an app. If there is an existing application which I can modify for my needs, I can also try it.
I tried to search but the most of the content assumed for people with some knowledge of http post (I even do not know what it is) and others.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Force Apps To Start On Boot?
Dec 3, 2009Unfortunately, I've had to uninstall several apps that I liked because they force start on boot and my Droid was becoming completely laggy because of too many apps starting on boot. I understand that some apps/widgets need to start on boot, but others its completely unnecessary. At a minimum, make an option in settings to let the user decide if we want it to start on boot up.
I just uninstalled Note Everything, Estrong File manager and Weatherbug because they were starting on boot. I love MixZing and I am kind of annoyed that it starts on boot, but its an app I "need" so I can't uninstall it. I'll probably email all these devs and ask about giving the option not to start on boot.

Every now and then, the voice control, moxie mailer, etc will be running when I don't use them, need them, or want them to run. I'd like to be able to control which items are running in the background, much like an 'msconfig' in Windows.

Android :: Start Service Without Using Any Activity
Oct 16, 2009My 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, 2009We 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....
