Android Service cannot restart after being killed

I have built a simple Android application to schedule mobile data :)
Everything works perfectly... However in my extended testing I found a very weird issue. Sometimes my application service is crashing and it couldn't restart.

Edited to include LogCat logs

Fix:
Well, you can fix this problem when you override onStartCommand method on your service class (like below).
More information: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Service.html

 

package com.goksu.xxx.service;

import android.app.Service;
import android.content.Intent;

/**
 * @author kgoksu
 */
public class MyService extends Service {
 ...
 ...
 @Override
 public void onStart(Intent intent, int startid) {
  handleCommand();
 }
 
 @Override
 public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
  handleCommand();
  
     // We want this service to continue running until it is explicitly
     // stopped, so return sticky.
     return START_STICKY;
 }
 
 private void handleCommand() {
  //TODO
 }
 ...
 ...
}

android apk files decompile / reverse engineering

- Download dex2jar tools on your computer
http://code.google.com/p/dex2jar/downloads/list
- Extract dex2jar tools
- run cmd and \dex2jar-version\dex2jar.bat yourApk.apk
- this generate yourApk.apk to yourApk.jar
- use jdgui to view the yourApk.jar source.

Android Can not save APN Setting --> Fixed

Hi,

If your android telephone doesn't save the apn setting, you can follow these steps:

1. Install your phone 'Tweakker APN INTERNET MMS' on google play or open the link below
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tweakker
2. Select your provider and follow other steps
3. Thats all

If you backup this apn setting, you can install 'APN Backup & Restore' after this operation.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.riteshsahu.APNBackupRestore

No reset, no update. This instructions runs correctly on htc wildfire s (android 2.3.5).
