Dear Omkar,
Here is the code to check if the apk pid..
private boolean isMyServiceRunning() {
ActivityManager manager = (ActivityManager)
getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
for (RunningServiceInfo service : manager
.getRunningServices(Integer.MAX_VALUE)) {
if (yourclassname.class.getName().equalsIgnoreCase(
service.service.getClassName())) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
it returns true if succeeded...
