Hi, Thanks for the reply. I understood what you are saying. I wrote my Intent Receiver which will receive to this broadcast message. Now I want to run a background process which keeps running forever ( which do some update after every sometime t). My approach to this problem is this : I am going to write a Service Calls and call it from the onReceiveIntent method of the IntentReceiver I wrote. Now, onStart method of the Service Class, I will create a thread that updates and then sleep for time t and keep running.
Is this a recommended way to approach this problem?
