Android Question Don't show layout

[anaylor01]

How do you run your app without showing anything? I just want the service to run. I also want the service to run at bootup and run ALL the time.

Activity.Color = Colors.Transparent

add this to manifest

SetActivityAttribute(main, android:theme, @android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar)

Set #StartAtBoot to true and the service will start to run after boot (don't use the starter service for this).
No Activity will appear.

After the app is installed the user must explicitly start it once. When the user starts it the main activity will appear. You can immediately close it.
