According to http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.3-highlights.html there are now circumstances other than low system memory that can result in background services being killed:
"The Android system takes a more active role in managing apps that are keeping the device awake for too long or that are consuming CPU while running in the background. By managing such apps — closing them if appropriate — the system helps ensure best possible performance and maximum battery life." Is there a list of the circumstances under which such a process killing can occur? Is there a way to detect this circumstance and handle it gracefully? Finally, does making a service a foreground service help in this case? Thanks, --Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
