Yes, exactly. If you need to do something heavy in the service, it must happen in a dedicated thread, otherwise you will freeze the application main thread (and thus the UI) which you should never do. So, you might need both a service *and* a thread. -- Olivier -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
