We certainly let the user decide when they want to run our activity and interact with it, but we also have a service that we want to run after we are installed and at boot time. In any system there are applications that have a service/daemon character, or a component of them that do, and mobile devices are no different. Android provides the BOOT_COMPLETED broadcast to allow this behavior at boot time, just like Unix's init or Window's service manager, so I don't see why it would be a problem to have us invoked in the same manner after installation? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
