Um, I'll be surprised if what you propose here is stable. I don't think out parameters are designed for long-term use, just for a single call (which is equivalent to returning the value). The primary advantage of out parameters is that you can have more than one. If you want to implement a callback, then you should implement a callback: -- define an AIDL interface for the callback -- have your method take an instance of that callback as a regular (in) parameter -- create a .Stub implementation of the callback in the client and supply an instance of it when calling the service's exposed method -- the service receives the proxy as the parameter to its method implementation and can use that as needed The RemoteClientEx and RemoteServiceEx examples in this directory demonstrate this: https://github.com/commonsguy/cw-advandroid/tree/master/AdvServices Making the change you've suggested wouldn't work in this > case.
