You don't. Your BroadcastReceiver calls startService() on the Service. Your Service does the work. It does not "notify the completion of service to the broad cast receiver", because that BroadcastReceiver object has been gone for quite a long time. Rather, the Service does *all of the work*, including whatever you would expect the BroadcastReceiver to have done after "notify the completion of service". -- 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 1.9.9 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
