title: Android Activity bind to Service
body: <p>I have a series of 3 activities, and the 3rd activity binds (I'm using AIDL) to a Service. What I notice is, if I am on the 3rd activity and start the service, on clicking the back button (moving from 3rd activity to 2nd activity), the Service onDestroy() gets called, and the Service is stopped. </p>
  
  <p>How can I ensure that the service runs even if the Activity is closed?</p>
  
  <p>This is how I bind to the service in the 3rd activity's onCreate method:</p>
  
  <p>this.bindService(new Intent(this,MyService.class), mConnection, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE);</p>
  
  <p>Thanks
  Chris</p>
