Answer 1

stopService(new Intent(this, BackgroundMusicService.class));

add this to your onPause() method and onDestroy() method in your main activity. Because If you press the Home button the app will be on background for random time and onDestroy() method would not invoked as soon as you minimize the app. The best way to do it is putting it in to the onPause() method. onPause() method is invoked when your application activity is not the fore-ground activity.
