Your Handler (if implemented like this) will be active as long as the Looper instance is active, which is for the whole life cycle of the thread (which has little to do with activity life cycle).

If you want the handler to stop re-triggering itself, you need to take care of it yourself.

Sending 0-delayed message to self looks slightly weird, anyway. What are you trying to achieve, actually?
