stopService doesn’t stop’s my service…. why?

Have you implemented onDestroy()? If not, I believe that might be the solution – and you stop your Timer or whatever you’re using to run the service within onDestroy().

A service can be stopped by calling its stopSelf() method, or by calling Context.stopService().
