[android] stop service in android

To stop the service we must use the method stopService():

  Intent myService = new Intent(MainActivity.this, BackgroundSoundService.class);
  //startService(myService);
  stopService(myService);

then the method onDestroy() in the service is called:

  @Override
    public void onDestroy() {

        Log.i(TAG, "onCreate() , service stopped...");
    }

Here is a complete example including how to stop the service.
