This is Myservice

    public class MyService extends Service implements SensorEventListener {

        private SensorManager mSensorManager;
        static int count=0;
        private ShakeEventListener mSensorListener;
    /** OnShakeListener that is called when shake is detected. */


    public MyService() {
    }

    @Override//
    public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
        Toast.makeText(this, "Service Started", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        mSensorManager = (SensorManager) getSystemService(Context.SENSOR_SERVICE);
      //registering Sensor
        Sensor sensor = mSensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER);

        mSensorManager.registerListener(mSensorListener,
                mSensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER),

It worked when i add the following lines in OnCreate

        mSensorManager = (SensorManager) getSystemService(Context.SENSOR_SERVICE);

Edited MyService

   public class MyService extends Service implements SensorEventListener {

        private SensorManager mSensorManager;
        static int count=0;
        private ShakeEventListener mSensorListener;
    /** OnShakeListener that is called when shake is detected. */


      public MyService() {
       }

    @Override//
    public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
        Toast.makeText(this, "Service Started", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        mSensorManager = (SensorManager) getSystemService(Context.SENSOR_SERVICE);
      //registering Sensor
        Sensor sensor = mSensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER);

        mSensorManager.registerListener(mSensorListener,
                mSensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER),
                SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_UI);

        //then you should return sticky
        return Service.START_STICKY;
    }
    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
    mSensorManager = (SensorManager) getSystemService(Context.SENSOR_SERVICE);
        //add this line only
    }
    @Override
    public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
        // TODO: Return the communication channel to the service.
        throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not yet implemented");
    }


    @Override
    public void onSensorChanged(SensorEvent se) {
        // get sensor when Change
        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Detected", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();


    }


    @Override
    public void onAccuracyChanged(Sensor sensor, int accuracy) {
    }

}
