I'm not 100% certain, but my guess would be the messages queue up and will not get "handled" until the activity is brought back via onResume(). But you really should consider stopping the thread in onPause() and starting a fresh thread in onResume(). If a call comes in, it might be hours before the user ever pops back to your activity. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android Training on the Ranch! -- Mar 16-20, 2009 http://www.bignerdranch.com/schedule.shtml --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
