I also met the same issue. I have an UI app with a service running at background. When the app is forced stop, the service could not be restarted to correct state without appropriate cleanup before stopping. I understand that Android forced stop should have power to kill my app and service

Hello, I'm not saying that this is a bug, I just want to know if there is any way to know from my application that it is being killed by the application manager. Any idea will help! Thanks in advance. On Oct 1, 8:37 pm, Dianne Hackborn hack...@android.com wrote: This is what force stop does.

Hello, I was having the same issues. And i was not able to solve it the way i wish it. I think this is a great feature on android, but also i think it has it faults. I think that the system MUST send to my package ACTION_PACKAGE_RESTARTED before killing the process, or at least call onDestroy

Hello some comments: 2) If someone uses force stop they should already acknowledge that some information might be lost. The user doesn't know about this, there isn't any sign or warning when pressing that button. And also our apps doesn't know too. ;) Whenever your app is in the background,

2009/10/2 José Prieto Garay jose.prietoga...@gmail.com I think this is the point, normally when our application needs to be destroyed in order to release memory, or it's in a lower priority then onDestroy() is called. That is not true. If the user presses home, they will leave your app, it

Hello Dianne, Ok, I understand your point, but this Android feature is giving me a headache. Instead of solve this issue (force stop) , lets change the conversation angle. I have an app (App1) that controls the excecution of another one (App2). The problem that I have is that the app1 decides
