ServerSocket is standard Java. Had you even bothered to search Google for: java serversocket tutorial
you would have found nearly 100,000 hits, including: http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/networking/sockets/clientServer.html http://zerioh.tripod.com/ressources/sockets.html http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-1996/jw-12-sockets.html http://oreilly.com/catalog/javanp2/chapter/ch11.html http://www.kodejava.org/examples/216.html And so on. >From an Android standpoint, you will need your ServerSocket to be managed by a Service with its own background thread, most likely. Also, bear in mind that what you are trying to do will not work unless you and the server are on the same local network. Android devices are not designed to be servers in this fashion. A more general-purpose solution would be to use push services, like C2DM, Xtify, and Urban Airship.
