title: stopService doesn't stop's my service.... why?
body: <p>i have a background service on my android APP that is getting my GPS position and sending it to a remote db. It work's fine.</p>
  
  <p>The problem is when i want to stop the service.... it doesn't stops :S. Also no exception or errors on logcat have appeared... it simply doesn't stops.</p>
  
  <p>this is the code to start my srvice (with a button):</p>
  
  <pre><code>startService(new Intent(GPSLoc.this, MyService.class)); //enciendo el service
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>this is the code where I stop it (on the onactivityresult method):</p>
  
  <pre><code>stopService(new Intent(GPSLoc.this, MyService.class));
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have been debugged the app, and i checked that the stopService codeline has been called every time that i debugged it, but it doesn't stops......</p>
  
  <p>i am sure that it's not stopped cause on my database i still recive gps positions from the emulator when i have press the button to stop the service.</p>
  
  <p>what i am doing bad?</p>
