> Sorry to bump, but this must be possible? "But if the main activity loses focus (i.e. I go to the home screen) when I return to the activity it has no knowledge of the service anymore - even though the service is still running. "
What do you mean by "it has no knowledge of the service anymore"? "When the activity resumes, how do I find out a) if the service is running, and if so b) re-bind to it, so that I can then stop it and collect the data I'm after. " a). You don't need to. b). Call bindService() if you want to bind to it, to call methods on its binder. Call stopService() if you want to stop it. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android App Developer Books: http://commonsware.com/books.html -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
