HI Hackbod,

1) Thanks about the suggestion. I never used HandlerThread. Maybe I
can take a look.

2)coming to the other suggestion.How can I quit a thread. I mean which
method should I use because thread.resume/suspend/stop are all
deprecated.

HI Joe,
I am using a separate daemon thread for receiving messages. Messages
need not be received when chat application is not in use.
So. I am not making it as a service.

Thanks,
--Jyothsna
