So please let me explain a bit more about what i want to do. Try to implement a service what is getting gps information and record that to a database. An activity get information from that record service to display it. But the user can deceide if he close the activity or not. To say it simply the UI should attach and detach from the service. The question what is raising is that possible with a service implementation and "bindService"? I haven't find answers to this question in your books yet. ;-) The books are great stuff, maybe my bad english comprehension is the problem here.
