Sticky Service is getting killed when user closes app from recent apps

I have good concept of starting and using the basic service. I mean not to complicated. In My app I want a service which should not be killed in any situation and should download some files from the server then it should call stopSelf. I have made my service in the following way. But before sharing its whole code just let me tell you what I am doing
In Service I am passing the series of url (string array) which has to download all files from the server.
I am using the async task to download from the server.
Under this whole process I am getting a 1st response that is in xml then I parse it , and get the JSON string (sorry about that my web service designer is a numb like me). so after these two conversion I store the data in the database and then starts downloading files and saving them to device and store their path in the database. (this all works fine)
I am calculating and updating progress in the notification bar. (showing user how much the files has been downloaded)
what I really want
I want that my service should not be killed when user removes it from the recent app list , so that it should continue to download and continue to update the status in notification bar. I am using Notification manager to update the progress.
What is really happening
When I close my app from recent app tray, I think my service gets killed and the downloading process stops, and It also stops updating the progress of notification in notification bar, Where As I want it to continue to run until the download process is finished.
Here is my code it is simplified as some methods are really not worthy
to be discussed here Such as Parsing the xml or JSON
Here is the Code

I Know this is length code but sharing if You want to analyse it deeply.
I will provide how I am using and calling this service in MainActivity if you demand it

why are you not using an IntentService if you want to do network stuff?
you should consider adding setIntentRedelivery(true); in your constructor
from the documentation
Sets intent redelivery preferences. Usually called from the
constructor with your preferred semantics.
If enabled is true, onStartCommand(Intent, int, int) will return
START_REDELIVER_INTENT, so if this process dies before
onHandleIntent(Intent) returns, the process will be restarted and the
intent redelivered. If multiple Intents have been sent, only the most
recent one is guaranteed to be redelivered.
If enabled is false (the default), onStartCommand(Intent, int, int)
will return START_NOT_STICKY, and if the process dies, the Intent dies
along with it.

Updating UI from Service in Android

I have an App that Monitors room noise levels, I initially got the Code from Github, in the original code, the programmer was monitoring noise levels from Main Activity and displaying the results in textviews, but I want to monitor using a service, I have implemented everything and its working but the textviews seem to be lagging behind, lets say I make a bit of noise and the noise level reach 5, it sticks at 5 even when there is no noise in the room, but in the original app, it was so sensitive that it would go back to 0 or another value depending on the noise levels, I do not know where I have gone wrong but below is my code:
Main Activity
public class StartingPoint extends Activity {
private String volumeBars;
private String volumeLevel;
private TextView volumeBarView;
private TextView volumeLevelView;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Loading...", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
setContentView(R.layout.activity_starting_point);
//starting Service
startService(new Intent(this, VolumeListerner.class));
volumeBarView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.volumeBars);
volumeLevelView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.volumeLevel);
}
#Override
public void onResume() {
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).registerReceiver(mReceiver, new IntentFilter("UI_UPDATER"));
super.onResume();
// Sound based code
}
#Override
public void onPause() {
super.onPause();
}
public void updateTextView() {
volumeBarView.setText(volumeBars);
volumeLevelView.setText(volumeLevel);
return;
}
private BroadcastReceiver mReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
volumeBars = intent.getStringExtra("VolumeBars");
volumeLevel = intent.getStringExtra("volumeLevel");
Log.d("receiver", "Got message: " + volumeBars + " : " + volumeLevel);
updateTextView();
}
};

volumeToSend = (int) volume;
volumeVisual = "";
for( int i=0; i<volumeToSend; i++){
volumeVisual += "|";
updateUI();
}
handler.postDelayed(this, 250); // amount of delay between every cycle of volume level detection + sending the data out
}
};
// Is this line necessary? --- YES IT IS, or else the loop never runs
// this tells Java to run "r"
handler.postDelayed(r, 250);
}
private void updateUI()
{
Intent intent = new Intent( "UI_UPDATER" );
intent.putExtra("VolumeBars", "Volume Bars: " + String.valueOf(volumeVisual));
intent.putExtra("volumeLevel","Volume Levels: " + String.valueOf(volumeToSend));
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).sendBroadcast(intent);

I recommmand you to use an enhanced event bus with emphasis on Android support. you have a choice between :
1- Otto
2- Event Bus

Application skipping 600 frames

so im building this service for a application locker. it runs fine for the most part.but when i try to run the service to lock my own application(ie the app locker itself) there's a lag for like 4-5 seconds and then the lock activity launches. The logcat displays that it has skipped 600 frames and is doing too much work on the main thread. can anyone tell him how do i fix this or optimize this code
the AppActivities contains the name of activities that are to be ignored from launching the locker again when they are on top of the stack.eg the lockscreen activity to be shown to the user. The allowedapp is the last app verified by the user
public class LockerService extends Service {
String LockedApps[];
String allowedapp = null;
DataBaseHandler handler;
Intent pwdIntent = null;
ActivityManager am;
String[] AppActivities = { "com.packagename.Locker",
"com.packagename.Compare_Pattern",
"com.packagename.Captcha_Verfication",
"com.haibison.android.lockpattern.LockPatternActivity" };
private final static Handler servicehandler = new Handler() {
#Override
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
}
};
#Override
public void onCreate() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate();
handler = new DataBaseHandler(this);
am = (ActivityManager) getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
pwdIntent = new Intent(LockerService.this, Locker.class);
pwdIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
}
#Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return null;
}
private Runnable checkforeground = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
handler.open();
LockedApps = handler.getPackages();
handler.close();
String packname = am.getRunningTasks(1).get(0).topActivity
.getPackageName();
String activityname = am.getRunningTasks(1).get(0).topActivity
.getClassName();
SharedPreferences sp = PreferenceManager
.getDefaultSharedPreferences(LockerService.this);
allowedapp = sp.getString("allowedapp", "anon");
// check if top application is mylocker application
if ((packname.equals("com.packagename"))
&& (allowedapp.equals("com.packagename"))) {
// do nothing
}
// check if top application is mylocker application and prevent relaunching the lockeractivity every 1.5 seconds
else if ((packname.equals("com.packagename"))
&& !(Arrays.asList(AppActivities).contains(activityname))) {
try {
Editor edit = sp.edit();
edit.putString("current_app", packname);
edit.commit();
startActivity(pwdIntent);
Thread.sleep(10000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
} else if ((Arrays.asList(LockedApps).contains(packname))
&& (allowedapp.equals(packname))) {
// do nothing
} else if ((Arrays.asList(LockedApps).contains(packname))) {
Editor edit = sp.edit();
edit.putString("current_app", packname);
edit.commit();
startActivity(pwdIntent);
}
servicehandler.postDelayed(this, 1500); // 1.5 seconds
}
};
#Override
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {
servicehandler.removeCallbacks(checkforeground);
servicehandler.postDelayed(checkforeground, 1500);// 1.5 second
}
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onDestroy();
servicehandler.removeCallbacks(checkforeground);
stopSelf();
}
}

first of all as Gabe mentioned, a runnable runs on the main Thread.To solve the frames issue You'll need to create another new thread to run your code in the background.
Try this initialize executorService and LcThread and a boolean running_statusin your service.
The running_status variable is used to break the while loop of your thread so that stops looping in the back
#Override
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {
running_status = true;
executorService = Executors.newSingleThreadExecutor();
servicehandler.removeCallbacks(LcThread);
LcThread = new LockerThread();
executorService.submit(LcThread);
}
create the following class
class LockerThread implements Runnable {
#Override
public void run() {
while(running_status){
//copy code from your old Runnable run method here
}
}
}
next modify the onDestroy method
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onDestroy();
if (executorService != null) {
executorService.shutdown();
}
running_status = false;
servicehandler.removeCallbacks(LcThread);
stopSelf();
}
hope this solves your problem

A runnable still happens on the main thread. Services do not have their own thread by default, they run on the UI thread. If you want to do heavy processing in a service, you need to use a Thread or AsyncTask, so the processing does not occur on the UI thread.

Android, prevent to kill service/thread

how can i prevent this service with thread to dont be killed from android, i need this notifications always runnig, but when is mobile locked, nothing will happen. I think android kill service or thread or something like that
MainActivity in onCreate
startService(new Intent(this, NotifyService.class));
My service
public class NotifyService extends Service {
private DatabaseOp mDbHelper;
public Vibrator vibrator;
String username;
#Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return null;
}
#Override
public void onCreate ()
{
mDbHelper = new DatabaseOp(this);
final boolean cyklus = true;
Thread vlakno = new Thread (new Runnable()
{
#Override
public void run()
{
while (cyklus)
{
try {
Thread.sleep(60000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
String sysDate = getSysDate();
String sysDate2 = getSysDate2();
String time = getSysTime();
mDbHelper.open();
Log.v( "sysDate", sysDate );
Cursor cursorU = mDbHelper.fetchUlohaS(0, sysDate);
if (cursorU.getCount() > 0)
{
String idU = cursorU.getString(cursorU.getColumnIndexOrThrow(DatabaseOp.KEY_ID));
String dbDateU = cursorU.getString(cursorU.getColumnIndexOrThrow(DatabaseOp.KEY_DATE));
String menoU = cursorU.getString(cursorU.getColumnIndexOrThrow(DatabaseOp.KEY_NAZOV));
String mHodina = getResources().getString(R.string.cas)+" "+cursorU.getString(cursorU.getColumnIndexOrThrow(DatabaseOp.KEY_HODINA));
Log.v( "task", dbDateU+"/"+sysDate );
if (dbDateU.equals(sysDate))
{
Notify(menoU, mHodina, idU, 0);
}
}
Cursor cursorS = mDbHelper.fetchSviatokS(3, sysDate2);
if (cursorS.getCount() > 0)
{
String idS = cursorS.getString(cursorS.getColumnIndexOrThrow(DatabaseOp.KEY_ID));
String dbDateS = cursorS.getString(cursorS.getColumnIndexOrThrow(DatabaseOp.KEY_DATUM));
String menoS = cursorS.getString(cursorS.getColumnIndexOrThrow(DatabaseOp.KEY_NAZOV));
if (dbDateS.equals(sysDate2) && time.equals("09:00"))
{

mDbHelper.close();

Have you tried to use ForgroundService?
Checkout this repo for an example - https://github.com/supercurio/foreground-service-sample-app

I think you should consider AlarmManager. See http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/AlarmManager.html.

To tip the system to keep your Service alive as long as possible (i.e. before RAM is very short or user kills the service by hand through application info screen), you need to run it as a foreground service -- by using startForeground() method.
If you're looking for a way to run when the device is turned off, read the Keeping The Device Awake training page and consider using AlarmManager instead as suggested by #khris if your task is not very critical in terms of timing precision.

Service allocate lots of memory?

I've been using Android open source service example. I just need to use it to send notification to user, but strange, it allocates lots of memory. I checked in Running Services, and it is almost 20MB (if i set ACTION_BACKGROUND) or 30MB (if i set ACTION_FOREGROUND)...
What should i do to reduce this memory usage?
I've already read this discussion I have no bitmap or webview.
Here's my service:

P.S.: I don't know if it's relevant or not but i'm starting this service onDestroy of my app, so it'll send notification to user on a specific time with AlarmManager. (So it should not be killed to avoid AlarmManager deleting my notification.)

I've tried to simplfy my service as possible as i can, but the situation is still the same... Then i realize that somehow, usage of memory decrease by itself... So, if i have no option, i could except that.
