I have written an app that has a non-Starter service based on the Tracker service in Erel's MyLocation example in:
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/background-location-tracking.99873/
The service I have written contains a Service_Start subroutine:
where Checkmsg goes off and checks for messages in an AWS S3 bucket.
In one of the posts in the above referenced thread Erel states:
And this is generally true - if I manually try to kill it it rises again on schedule.
However I have found that I can permanently kill it with Kapersky's Battery Life app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kaspersky.batterysaver
This app allows you to kill everything in sight - but it warns that some apps will resurrect themselves.
And sure enough apps like Google Play Store will arise again.
But my app doesn't.
How can I make my app replicate the behaviour of Google Play Store?
