  • so, you're starting the service first and then you want to start an Activity from within your Service? as far as I know, this would not work... why don't you do it the other way round? – herom Mar 22 '12 at 12:47

Something like this...

public class TestService extends Service {

@Override
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {
    super.onStart(intent, startId);
            Intent dialogIntent = new Intent(getBaseContext(), myActivity.class);
    dialogIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
    getApplication().startActivity(dialogIntent);
    }
}

android start activity from service
