i dont have idea about whatsApp service.

But it is possible that after force stop application, restart service of app.

i use START_STICKY service for my chatApp. i have to do same thing so i use START_STICKY service so when my app kill or force stop from setting, after few second my service get restart and i able to login to my xmpp server and get incoming message.
