Handler behavior in Android

I am creating an handler as shown below,

postTimer = new Handler();
postHandler = new Runnable() {
   public void run() {
 Message msg = mServiceHandler.obtainMessage();
 msg.arg1 = SYNC_USAGE_STAT;
 mServiceHandler.sendMessage(msg);              
}
};
postTimer.postDelayed(postHandler, 15000);

Does this give a single timeout or is it like heartbeat.

That's a one time event. You can do the same thing in your runnable (postTimer.postDelayed(postHandler, 15000); I mean), so it will behave like heartbeat, but you would need some kind of flag to stop it somewhere in the future.
