Hi,
I think you should tell to us what you are trying to do cause repeating
that you do startService the second time and it "does not work" doesn't
mean a thing if we don't know what you want to do and what your service
does.

Hi,
if one service is working in the background and we again start the
service then onstart method for second time does not work until first
one finish execution

Send another Intent (different action) to the IntentService.
Override the onStartCommand to catch this Intent and this could
allow you to stop/interrupt the ongoing process in the
IntentService's background thread.

service from the other class.

Usually you use a service to coordinate a thread.
FYI most of the time you don't want to outright kill a
thread (e.g., if it's about to return from a download
operation), you want to periodically check a flag.
You probably don't want to use threads in their raw fashion
(from activities) for a few reasons, one of which being that
with configuration changes they're trickier to get right.
Instead if you need background work that fits the model,
an AsyncTask is an appropriate design.

I read about services in Android very carefully, but I
didn't find any valid reasons to use it. E.g.
1.
By default services run in the main thread, which
most of the applications don't want.
2.
A service can run on a seperate thread if it spawns
it own thread. But if a service runs on a seprate
thread, then the method |stopService(new
Intent(getApplicationContext(),
MyService.class));| does not stop the running
service. Again this is a problem.
If we want to do some background operations, then I
think threads are better than services. Am I right?
