thanks Kostya, I don't know if I explained well what i wanna mean when i say sync the app.
What i try to have sync is the data of the application. I mean, the user can modify his data through movile device, or accessing via web, in the future maybe through facebook, etc. So i think is quite enough if the process run only while the user is using the application. I think i don't need sync while the user is doing whatever and my app is on memory. Or maybe yes.... i don't know. :D I am gonna take a look to AlarmManager.
