This works but, all the activity in Main module stops? I have a simple timer in main that stops processing when i switch to another app, but the 'service' in starter keeps working(updating notification) Dont understand why just Main module stops? How do I keep it working like the starter service? When i switch back to my app the Main resumes where it left off.
