Service or receiver... it's not clear from the original post what they mean by "notification defined in an activity," but generally for things happening in the background you should use the NotificationManager API to show this information to the user in the status bar, so they can deal with it as they want. You can also use the Toast class to display a briefly floating message to them that will not interrupt their current interaction. We definitely prefer that you don't display an activity.
