So you can have Actvity subclass that fires up service during onCreate() and then do finish() and it shall be it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Or is this something you want others to tap into? Either way, you should be able to explicitly start the Service or register a BroadCastReceiver for events (perhaps that you define for others to broadcast) that then starts the service as necessary. - TreKing http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
