Why does the background service stops while running?

Question

I have a background service in my android application.In which a thread listening recent tasks running frequently.My service overrides both onCreate() and onS

Answer 1

You have this code in your Service.onStartCommand():

if(intent != null){

You do realize that if Android kills the process hosting your Service, it will create a new process and create a new instance of your Service and restart it, calling onCreate() and then calling onStartCommand() with a null Intent. This is probably what is happening and why you think that onStartCommand() is not being called.
