For this particular problem yes, and it was a total error/oversight on my part resulting in *startService()* being called a second time because the code i borrowed had it being invoked in a separate method i was still using. This other call was on an Activity object, which if i recall was what specifically caused the weirdness.
So basically *startService()* worked correctly, where as *myActivity.** startService()*,which was in the code i borrowed, did not. Apologies for the delayed response and I hope this might help someone else who may be using the same code i was. Thank you everyone.
