I'm not sure its complaining about the thread shutting down, but rather that you're trying to unbind a service that is note bound to "Service not registered".
Try keep a reference to your thread in the your Activity. in onPause() your should call Thread.stop(). Override stop() in your thread to unbind the service and then call super.stop().
