Re: [android-developers] Re: Android kills my Thread created by Service

Well, if the need is for something that will continue running even when the app isn't in the foreground/running, nothing will work except for the alarmmanager.

In which case using an AlarmManager would be inappropriate (though,
perhaps I assumed incorrectly..!).  AlarmManager has a coarse
scheduling granularity (minutes, rather than seconds), and I've always
felt an aversion for using it for this purpose.

*sigh*, however sometimes it does seem to be a necessary solution to
get the desired effect..
