I m currently writing a service that can read click coordinates via a
service.
I m now able to recieve the coordinates and write them to an external file
but the click is not being passed to the main application even with the use
of FLAG_NOT_TOUCH_MODAL. This result in total no respond from click while
the service is running.
Code for the service and view is attached. Any guidance is greatly
appreciated.
