Android Question Make service run automatically

[John Decowski]

i have a database i connect to remotely via remote database connector. I want to periodically check for updates to database every so often even while app is not running (in background) what would be the best way to accomplish this. And can anyone refer me to library or tutorial?

You need to create a Service to do the necessary check and then use StartServiceAt.

I am also looking for a sample/Tutorial that make use of a Service Module to do database activities.

Go over the services tutorial. There is nothing really special with services.
