check if service is running android
Create the method: private boolean isMyServiceRunning(Class<?> serviceClass) { ActivityManager manager = (ActivityManager) getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE); for (RunningServiceInfo service : manager.getRunningServices(Integer.MAX_VALUE)) { if (serviceClass.getName().equals(service.service.getClassName())) { return true; } } return false; } And I call it using: isMyServiceRunning(MyService.class)
