So out of the box, the demo doesn't work for me.  The first problem was the Read and Write External Storage permissions are deprecated.

 

So, I changed the permissions to use the media files..... changed the line in the service from :

LFileName := TPath.Combine(TPath.GetSharedDownloadsPath, LFileName);

to
LFileName := TPath.Combine(TPath.GetDocumentsPath, LFileName); 

in hopes it would work.  Still nothing.

 

 

This is my first pass at services, so I don't know diddly......

 

1-Can I debug a service?  I have tried but can't seem to make it happen.

2- Does the service and the App reside in the same "directory" on android, and have access to the same folders?

 

I'm at a point where the app runs fine, but no notification comes from the server indicating the file downloaded, and the app never loads it.......

 

Any one have 2 cents??
