Maybe this is what you're looking for:

Its not clear from the documentation the difference between
startService() and bindService().  If you just bind to a service, the
service will be killed after your activity calls unbind.  If you call
startService(), then it will (more or less) keep running regardless.

It's very easy to leak services that way, which is a bug everybody
should be watching out for!
