I am looking to do the exact same thing: start the application main function when double pressing the power button. Have you found a solution ?

EDIT: There's a solution in another post.

I don't find interesting of sending back information to the service: I start the activity directly in the receiver. That works well ... at least for me ! ! ;-)
