You don't need to check whether your Service is running or not, simply call stopService() on it. It will return true if there was such a Service running, false otherwise. From the reference:

Returns: If there is a service matching the given Intent that is already running, then it is stopped and true is returned; else false is returned.

Analogously, startService() won't start several Services if called several times.

Returns: If the service is being started or is already running, the ComponentName of the actual service that was started is returned; else if the service does not exist null is returned.

In my way phicially the service stop in my device service manager. But i remark that it still run. Because the service send mail automatically – user3274646 Feb 20 '14 at 12:11
Then something is not working as expected. Check the result values (`boolean`s) and see whether it's the expected value or not. – nKn Feb 20 '14 at 12:23
