Alright here I am after a good 8 hours of editing (Yeah I'm new......so sue me...) I'm working on this service that starts on start up. Keep in mind I am on my live phone so I DONT have logcat. On top of this it is a Rooted phone so if that changes anything then I guess I will burn that bridge after I cross it. Till then I could use a hand.
Here is the service code......once again: import android.app.Service; import android.content.Intent; import android.net.Uri; import android.os.IBinder; import android.os.Vibrator; import android.util.Log; import android.view.KeyEvent; import android.widget.Toast; public class Monitor extends Service { private static final String LOG_TAG = "::Monitor"; @Override public void onCreate() { super.onCreate(); Log.e(LOG_TAG, "Service created."); } public void onStartCommand() { Log.e(LOG_TAG, "Service started."); Toast.makeText(this, "Test launch started", 600).show(); } boolean dispatchKeyEventTake2(KeyEvent event) { int action = event.getAction(); int keyCode = event.getKeyCode(); int ticker = event.getRepeatCount(); final Vibrator vibrator = (Vibrator) getSystemService(VIBRATOR_SERVICE); switch (keyCode) { case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_VOLUME_DOWN: if (action == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN && ticker == 50) { Intent MainIntent = new Intent("help.me.please.MainActivity"); MainIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); startActivity(MainIntent); } return true; default: return this.dispatchKeyEventTake2(event); } } @Override public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) { Log.e(LOG_TAG, "Service bind."); return null; } } As well as the manifest: <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" installlocation="internalOnly" package="help.me.please" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.0" > <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="9" android:targetSdkVersion="15" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" /> <application android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher" android:label="@string/app_name" android:theme="@style/AppTheme" > <service android:name=".Monitor" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="help.me.please.Monitor" > </action> </intent-filter> </service> <activity android:name=".MainActivity" android:label="@string/title_activity_main" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /> </intent-filter> </activity> <receiver android:name="autoBot" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" > </action> </intent-filter> </receiver> </application> </manifest> Basically the program runs starts the service but wont start the intent in the service.
