import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.IntentFilter;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class AndroidServiceTestActivity extends Activity {

MyReceiver myReceiver;

/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);

}

@Override
protected void onStart() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub

//Register BroadcastReceiver
//to receive event from our service
myReceiver = new MyReceiver();
IntentFilter intentFilter = new IntentFilter();
intentFilter.addAction(MyService.MY_ACTION);
registerReceiver(myReceiver, intentFilter);

//Start our own service
Intent intent = new Intent(AndroidServiceTestActivity.this,
com.AndroidServiceTest.MyService.class);
intent.putExtra("INIT_DATA", "Data passed from Activity to Service in startService");
startService(intent);

super.onStart();
}

@Override
protected void onStop() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
unregisterReceiver(myReceiver);
super.onStop();
}

private class MyReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver{

@Override
public void onReceive(Context arg0, Intent arg1) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub

int datapassed = arg1.getIntExtra("DATAPASSED", 0);
String orgData = arg1.getStringExtra("DATA_BACK");

Toast.makeText(AndroidServiceTestActivity.this,
"Triggered by Service!\n"
+ "Data passed: " + String.valueOf(datapassed) + "\n"
+ "original Data: " + orgData,
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

}

}
}


package com.AndroidServiceTest;

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

public class MyService extends Service {

final static String MY_ACTION = "MY_ACTION";
String initData;

@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return null;
}

@Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub

initData = intent.getStringExtra("INIT_DATA");

MyThread myThread = new MyThread();
myThread.start();

return super.onStartCommand(intent, flags, startId);
}

public class MyThread extends Thread{

@Override
public void run() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
for(int i=0; i<10; i++){
try {
Thread.sleep(5000);
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(MY_ACTION);

intent.putExtra("DATAPASSED", i);
intent.putExtra("DATA_BACK", initData);

sendBroadcast(intent);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
