Would it be possible to expand on this at all? My (perhaps incorrect) method of testing behavior with a service that is always running is by killing the process from adb shell. I think I've always seen something in the logcat about the service being scheduled to restart in 5 seconds. This is true either with a startForeground notification icon or with out. I'm guessing that in some cases it might be more than 5 seconds and that's why the 5 minute alarm is a good idea?
