I want to pop up a Dialog from my Service when my App is running(so I
do have my own Activity window that the user is viewing and operating
at), but I always get android.view.WindowManager$BadTokenException:

08-05 20:47:39.432: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1387): Uncaught handler:
thread main exiting due to uncaught exception
08-05 20:47:39.432: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1387):

android.view.ViewRoot.setView(ViewRoot.java:429)

android.view.WindowManagerImpl.addView(WindowManagerImpl.java:91)
08-05 20:47:39.432: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1387):     at
android.app.Dialog.show(Dialog.java:231)
08-05 20:47:39.432: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1387):     at
android.app.AlertDialog$Builder.show(AlertDialog.java:802)

Is it because Service context can not serve Dialog? I haven't seen any
doc mention that, though.
