Run application in the background
<p>I'm trying to start the GroomDroid web server in Android but when it starts, a black window is shown. </p>

<p><img src="http://i.stack.imgur.com/0B23j.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>

<p>I'd like to start this app in the background without that screen being shown.</p>

<p>I'm starting this app in the following way:</p>

<pre><code>Intent webServer = new Intent();
webServer.setClassName("net.allory.groom","net.allory.groom.GroomDroid");
startActivity(webServer);
</code></pre>

<p>I also tried with <code>startService(webServer);</code> but it doesn't seem to work.</p>

<p>Can anybody help me with that ? </p>
