Android set listener for completed start service

i have problem with start service after running codes.

my service class:

 @Override
 public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
    super.onStartCommand(intent, flags, startId);

    mApplication.setService(this);
 }

now:

 startService(intent); // service run sucess, but after millisecond delay
 mApplication.setIsServiceRunning(true);

 mApplication.getService().MyMethodAnyThing(); // <--- NullPointerExeption, because in my class mApplication.setService(this) do with delay and getService is null.

i need completed start service. example:

 startService(intent);
 mApplication.setIsServiceRunning(true);

 // i need like listener
 @Override
 onServiceIsRunComplete() {
      // here i'm sure that service is run
      mApplication.getService().MyMethodAnyThing();
 }

Maybe something like this,

protected ServiceConnection mServerConn = new ServiceConnection() {
    @Override
    public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName name, IBinder binder) {
        Log.d(LOG_TAG, "onServiceConnected");
    }

    @Override
    public void onServiceDisconnected(ComponentName name) {
        Log.d(LOG_TAG, "onServiceDisconnected");
    }
}

public void start() {
    mContext.bindService(intent, mServerConn, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE);
    mContext.startService(intent);
}

Also don't forget to unbindService() when stopping the service.
