Activity can't be started from the service without FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK flag. Probably there is some alternative to this flag, but activity from the service doesn't started simple without this flag and without any other flag. Read about this flag here http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/fundamentals.html and here http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Context.html#startActivity(android.content.Intent) "Note that if this method is being called from outside of an Activity Context, then the Intent must include the FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK launch flag. This is because, without being started from an existing Activity, there is no existing task in which to place the new activity and thus it needs to be placed in its own separate task."
Anyway, I have experimented with some combinations of flags, unfortunately without result.
