Thanks for the reply. I have one more somewhat similar question. Is it possible to create an app that spawns a background / worker thread that listens for incoming text messages / emails / and then shows some alert? I'm understanding how to create a worker thread called from a service with a handler for communication, but I don't understand (know if it is possible) to set up a broadcastreceiver or listener (broadcast receiver is what I'm really after) in that thread.
