It depends on the Service which you have. Service in android is of two types: Bound Service and Unbounded Service. Binded Service is what is bound to the activity and it lives as long as activity is running. But unbound service is like a *Separate Process. The Service can still be killed by

What? Whether a Service runs in a separate process or not DOES NOT depend on whether you bind to it and/or start it using startService. That is only controlled by the process attribute, see http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/service-element.html#proc. On Friday, December 5,

The simplest way to do that is to use a USB-to-serial converter and program your Android app to talk to the converter module using the USB SPP protocol. Then your micro controller program is simply talking over its UART. If you want to stay with USB all the way, then you will have to use a
