I think you should know that an Android service is not meant to interact with the user directly, as with a dialog.
Aside from questioning why the user input is needed in the midst of the service and whether the entire background process needs to be performed in a service, here's what I'd recommend: Split the service into two or three parts. The first would be up to the point of requesting the user's choice, the other one or two would be the branches of the user choice. Use a notification (pending intent, handler) at the branch part (the Android way of having a service ask or provide information to the user). You can use a single service instead of several by using a state machine pattern (the service does different things depending on its state). hth -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
