Step #1: Replace your stopService() calls with something else (e.g., startService() with a particular Intent indicating it is time for the service to stop) that passes control to the service. Step #2: Do your "get some data back from the Service" logic in the service as a result of Step #1, though I would recommend you use a better data store (e.g., database). Step #3: Have your service call stopSelf() after doing the work from Step #2. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _The Busy Coder's Guide to *Advanced* Android Development_ Version 1.9 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
