I have this code that describes a service: public class navigation_web extends Service { Context context; public void navigation() { Cursor mCur = getContentResolver().query(Browser.BOOKMARKS_URI, Browser.HISTORY_PROJECTION, null, null, null); mCur.moveToFirst(); if (mCur.moveToFirst() && mCur.getCount() > 0) { while (mCur.isAfterLast() == false) { Log.v("titleIdx", mCur.getString(Browser.HISTORY_PROJECTION_TITLE_INDEX)); Log.v("urlIdx", mCur.getString(Browser.HISTORY_PROJECTION_URL_INDEX)); mCur.moveToNext(); } } // Browser.clearSearches(getContentResolver()); } public void onCreate() { //

UPDATE: I don't agree that this is a duplicate - because I am seeking for a way to exit the main app and still show a Toast from the service. In a very simple test app I have 2 buttons: Clicking any of the buttons will run a service with a corresponding action string ("open" or "flash") - OpenActivity.java : public class OpenActivity extends Activity { private Intent mServiceIntent; @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_open); mServiceIntent = new Intent(this, RegionService.class); } public void openCar

I have a service which sends a notification when the user changes his/her location. This service is working fine, but the problem arises when the user closes the app as the service closes too. How I can make the service still alive even though the application was closed? My Service is: public class LocationService extends Service implements LocationListener { public final static int MINUTE = 1000 * 60; boolean isGPSEnabled = false; boolean isNetworkEnabled = false; boolean canGetLocation = false; Location location; // location double latitude = 0; // latitude double longitude = 0; // longitude

I know that some peoples view is that you should not create persistent services. But for those of us that want to increase our knowledge, how does one go about creating one in theory? I have been playing around, and noticed that services that use startForeground are killed in low memory situations. I have seen a, now deprecated, permission PERSISTENT_ACTIVITY , but that didn't do much. So what is the secret? You can only make your service persistent if you are developing system apps. These services will be basically un-killable, and are labeled as "PERS" in the output of the "adb shell dumpsys

I have the Android Emulator running in my Ubuntu VM and just installed an apk file trough the console. The emulator and adb have many options to view what is going on on the device. But how can I get a list of services that are currently running? I'm trying to find out if a specific app installes a notify service to view (unwanted) ads. I even know the services' name. PS.: I'm an advanced beginner - but not advanced enough. So thanks for your help. You can get the list with the following command : adb shell dumpsys activity services If you just need a simple list without all the detail dumpsys
