How to get the intent that stops the service in android

Question

Answer 1

I understand this is an old question but, if anyone's looking for an alternative, you can register a BroadcastReceiver in your Service for stopping the service and then send broadcast to this receiver from all over your app. Here, you can get all the information from the intent sent to the receiver. Within the receiver, simply call stopSelf().
