barx Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 24, 2012 #1 Hi, Ihave recently started playing with service modules and need to debug a little problem I have. So, I poppped the ide into debug mode set some breakpoints and compiled. It stops at first breakpoint for several seconds and then just whizzes on by the rest. Done a search on here and according to this page this is expected behaviour within a service. Is this dur to how android uses services. Is there anything that can be done to help debugging as the actual debug tool doesn't help here. Not a complaint by the way, more a plea for hints & tips
