It would seem to be all about the intents in the manifest file.

You can use Activity.GetStartingIntent to get the intent that caused the activity to be resumed (or created).

The tutorial is for SMS but it shows how you can add intent filters. Note that in your case you need to add the intent filter to an activity not service.
