I have a service running with a background thread polling for XMPP messages. I want to issue a toast from the Thread. Previous stackoverflow questions have dealt with this by using the runOnUiThread Activity method, however this is not available in a Service. My question is what is the suggested method in a Service? Many thanks in advance

[This Question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4025082/android-toast-started-from-service-only-displays-once) should help you. – fredley Jan 19 '11 at 12:26

You could try to callbacks similar to the example at http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/RemoteService.html. Specifically see the section starting with the comment
/**
* Our Handler used to execute operations on the main thread. This is used
* to schedule increments of our value.
*/
