[android-developers] Re: Service onDestroy() not being called...

In addition to binding to the service, do you use startService? If you do, you must also call stopService/stopSelf, just unbinding and calling stopForeground is not enough.

I have a bound service that I'm using to play audio.

An activity binds to the service in onResume() and sets the service as
a foreground service.

The onPause() checks to see if the media player on the service is
playing, and if it is NOT, calls stopForeground(true), then unbinds
(in either case - playing or not).

I've got code in the onDestroy with log calls, but while other logs
messages from the service show up...it doesn't appear that the
onDestroy() is getting called.

Am I misunderstanding the lifecycle here, or is there something I can
check to see why the service remains running?
