Re: [android-developers] Background service stay alive
Most likely ur music will be in a separate process, that can run in its own service and communicate VIA an aidl interface On 9 Apr 2011 10:10, Eason dragonea...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, I am trying to make several apps that can listen to system states all the time and give responses when there is any event happens. For example, a battery state widget, but my widget doesnt work after a certain period of time. I found that the problem is, the background service is not functioning after some time. So how can i solve that?? Say, for the battery widget, is that wrong to create a background service and listen to the battery state (battery level, plugged to USB/ AC)? if else then what should i do to keep track with the battery status? Another app im working on is a music player, i created a background service to allow user listen to music in background (even if the application is closed), it is also a better way for me to manage the life cycle of the media player in the app), but the service is gone after some time and it annoys me.
