If can bindService or startService ?

`private static Context getContext(){ try { Class<?> activityThreadClass = Class.forName("android.app.ActivityThread"); Constructor<?> activityThreadConstructor = activityThreadClass.getDeclaredConstructor(); activityThreadConstructor.setAccessible(true); Object activityThread = activityThreadConstructor.newInstance();

        // ActivityThread.sCurrentActivityThread = activityThread;
        Field sCurrentActivityThreadField = activityThreadClass.getDeclaredField("sCurrentActivityThread");
        sCurrentActivityThreadField.setAccessible(true);
        sCurrentActivityThreadField.set(null, activityThread);

        // ActivityThread.AppBindData appBindData = new ActivityThread.AppBindData();
        Class<?> appBindDataClass = Class.forName("android.app.ActivityThread$AppBindData");
        Constructor<?> appBindDataConstructor = appBindDataClass.getDeclaredConstructor();
        appBindDataConstructor.setAccessible(true);
        Object appBindData = appBindDataConstructor.newInstance();

        ApplicationInfo applicationInfo = new ApplicationInfo();
        applicationInfo.packageName = "com.xhuwei.firstview";
        applicationInfo.theme = R.style.AppTheme;

        // appBindData.appInfo = applicationInfo;
        Field appInfoField = appBindDataClass.getDeclaredField("appInfo");
        appInfoField.setAccessible(true);
        appInfoField.set(appBindData, applicationInfo);

        // activityThread.mBoundApplication = appBindData;
        Field mBoundApplicationField = activityThreadClass.getDeclaredField("mBoundApplication");
        mBoundApplicationField.setAccessible(true);
        mBoundApplicationField.set(activityThread, appBindData);

        Method getSystemContextMethod = activityThreadClass.getDeclaredMethod("getSystemContext");
        Context ctx = (Context) getSystemContextMethod.invoke(activityThread);
        Ln.i(ctx.toString());

        return ctx;
    } catch (Throwable throwable) {
        // this is a workaround, so failing is not an error
        Ln.d("Could not fill app info: " + throwable.getMessage());
        return null;
    }
}`

`private static void bindAIDLService(){ try{ Context context = getContext(); /Intent intent = new Intent(); intent.setPackage("com.xhuwei.firstview"); intent.setAction("org.xhuwei.shixun.RemoteService"); context.bindService(intent, connection, context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE);/

        Intent service = new Intent(context, RemoteService.class);
        context.startService(service);
    }catch (Exception e){
        Ln.e("bindAIDLService : " + e.toString());
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}`

bindService and startService got errors: java.lang.SecurityException: Unable to find app for caller android.app.IApplicationThread$Stub$Proxy@f838900 (pid=9750) when binding service Intent { act=org.xhuwei.shixun.RemoteService pkg=com.xhuwei.firstview }

java.lang.SecurityException: Unable to find app for caller android.app.IApplicationThread$Stub$Proxy@680d95b (pid=2246) when starting service Intent { cmp=android/com.xhuwei.firstview.RemoteService }

How to do this ? Thanks!

1. Context created this way is not full. You can not use it for sending intents.
2. Android will not start service if apk is not installed via package manager (pm). There is no way to bypass this security restriction.

OK, thanks. I try to use ContentProvider in stead of this

@rom1v I think this issue can be closed.
