Answer 1

In your manifest file you can register the intent like this

<intent-filter>

                <action android:name="android.media.RINGER_MODE_CHANGED"  />
                          </intent-filter>

And then recieve the intent at method

public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) 

of class that extends BroadcastReceiver class

Answer 2

You don't want use a service. Instead you want to use a BroadcastReciever that filters for the android.media.RINGER_MODE_CHANGED Intent.

You might want to take a look at this project as it deals with the phone being silenced. It probably has some source code that will be useful to you.

Answer 3

You can register to listen to the BroadcastAudioManager.RINGER_MODE_CHANGED_ACTION.
