Android Question STARTING service - disable sound

[petr4ppc]

Dear friends,

please. I am starting some Services in my App (SDK 26)
If services are started then each time is here sound. It is possible to disable this sound?

What is standard way for checking if service is started (or running)?
For example:

If IsPaused(myservice)=false then startservice(myservice)

Is that good way for checking if the service is running or not? And if not , then the service is started? I am asking because of SOUND after each STARRTING of service.

Thank you very much

Never had a sound when I started any components in my apps Are you starting them in foreground mode? Maybe it's the notification. Just call stop foreground when the service has done it's work.

KMATLE-
yes. I have services in foreground mode. There is no other way how to stop the sound? I need this services in foreground mode. Or it is possible to recognize if the service is running in foreground mode and in this case the service will not start again?

Thank you very much

You should create a notification without sound.
