You can't on Android 3.1+. On Android 3.0 and below, you could use various hacks (e.g., register for every damn system broadcast) and start up as soon as one of those gets triggered. On Android 3.1+, the user must manually launch an activity of yours before any broadcast receiver will work, including ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED. Hence, AFAIK, there is no way to start a service without user intervention. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Training...At Your Office: http://commonsware.com/training -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
