title: Android Service keep alive
body: <p>I have a small chat application. When it starts it binds to a service. This service has a tcp/ip connection with the server.</p>
  
  <p>When the application is not in foreground my service creates  a status notification. So far so good.</p>
  
  <p>When the application is destroyed for example using task manager on "onDestroy" method I call unbind. Now the service is killed.
  So my question is how I make a service to stay alive even there is no clients bind with it.</p>
  
  <p>Googe doc: " The service will remain running as long as the connection is established (whether or not the client retains a reference on the service's IBinder)."</p>
  
  <p>Thanl you.</p>
