Thanks for ur reply =] But what i wonder is, if i only update the battery state every 5 mins, the update would be a bit too late.
I can see on the market there is some battery widget doing the same (i.e. give immediate response when the phone is plugged to the AC), how can i do the same?? for the music player, the problem is, if accidentally the service is killed, my app will be totally crapped. I use singleton on my service and start it when my app is started, and control the media player through the service. So if the service is died at some point, if i want to get the playback time or do anything with the service, my app will not be working anymore. Are there any better implementation can be done on my app? I feel so frustrated about it...

Make sure it can easily be killed by the user though. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
