You probably want two things: a service that will do the work and an Activity that will be the UI. When you start you app, you have start option. If you hit start, you create and bind to the service to get the location updates. If your activity is closed or sent to the background, you unbind and the service continues to run with a foreground notification. If your activity is resumed, you re-bind to the service. When the user hits stop, you stop the service. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TreKing <http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking> - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
