I have a aidl process through which i make connection to my server and perform login, But the problem is when i close the application i am unbinding the service in onDestroy() callback of activity, so here my server connection gets disconnected and i need to connect every time when i launch my application (while binding service in onCreate of activity).

I want my service to run even if user exits the application or kill the application, so that user will not require to connect to server every time launching the application and get a seamless experience.

Can i achieve this by implementing onStartCommandRecive() in service and returning START_REDELIVER_INTENT from callback function

so you need both started and bound service, more [hiere](https://developer.android.com/guide/components/bound-services.html) – pskink Nov 02 '16 at 09:52
basically i need to persist the server connection even if the component bound to service unbinds the service, so that user don't need to connect and login every time – Tushar Purohit Nov 02 '16 at 09:59
