Hi friends,
I surfed internet to find the solution to make phonegap android app run in background even the app is not opened. I found some solutions and also github links. But those are not clear enough to explain me how to write java and js file for a background service based on my requirements.

Please help me to solve this. I need it urgently. Thanks in advance,

According to the Phonegap documentation you cannot run the apps in the background, you need to create a plugin for that.See..
