Android Question BlueTooth service

[Stulish]

hi guys,

I crated a project to send GPS data in NMEA format over Bluetooth, this all works well and some customers have asked me if i could make it so they can run something else in the forground.

I was thinking if i put this into a service i could collect the phones internal GPS and send it out over BT from within a service, this should leave them able to open other apps in the foreground.

Am i correct in thinking this, will the service just keep going?? or am i wrong?

Thanks

Stu

You are more or less correct. See this short tutorial: Creating a sticky service - long running background tasks
