Hackborn, I am having the same problem as mentioned in the mail thread below that my activity is being restarted after I am killing it through DDMS or Android shell. My activity starts a service that just prints "Hello" in OnCreateFunction using Log class and does nothing else. >From your e-mail below you mention that an activity would be restarted when there are things to be done. In my case there is nothing else to be done by the service or the actvity that starts the service, then why is it being restarted. Please let me know if my understanding is not correct.
