The components behind any Android App
Service
Content Provider
Broadcast Receiver
Activity
Intent

Activity-Typically a Screen
Login Activity
News Feed Activity

Activity Lifecycle
Starting state
»When an activity doesn’t exist in memory, it is in a starting state
Running state
»One that is currently on the screen and interacting with the user
Paused state
»When an activity is not in focus (i.e., not interacting with the user) but still visible on the screen
Stopped state
»When an activity is not visible, but still in memory
Destroyed state
»A destroyed activity is no longer in memory
(1) OnCreate()
(2) onStart()
(3) On RestoreInstanceState()
(4) onResume()
(3) onResume()
(2) onstart()
(1) onRestart()
(1) onSaveInstanceState()
(2) onPause()
(1) onSaveInstanceState()
(2) onStop()
onDestroy()
or
<process Killed>
<process killed>
onResume()
Starting

»It is a kind of service which runs in the background indefinitely, even if the activity which started this service ends
»Bound Service
»It is a kind of service which runs till the lifespan of the activity which started this service
Example: music player, network download etc.

Starting
Running
onDestroy()
or

update()
delete()
query()
Database

Broadcast Receiver -Dormant Observer
