While developing I wanted to test the situation where the system kills a service. This is because I'm loosing connection when communicating between the Android Wear and the handheld. And I think that it is related with the system killing some services.
Does anyone have a suggestion on how to approach this?
When Android decides to kill our app, our activities will call onDestroy method.
If your Service is started by your app then actually your service is running on main process. so when app is killed service will also be stopped. So what you can do is, send broadcast from onTaskRemoved method of your service as follows: Intent intent = new Intent("com.
Go to DDMS and select your App process. Click STOP icon in upper-right-hand side. It will kill the process. Save this answer.
System services are pre-installed software and they support core system functionality.
if you're developing in Android Studio while you are running your application in android wear side try to hit the kill button displayed in the console.
When you hit this button all the threads + services + activities from this app will be destroyed. If your service is of type "STICKY" it will start by itself after you kill your application.
