There is no need to stop the service in normal execution. If needed the OS will do that for you.

If you Service has started any background threads then you should stop those of course. But that is done the normal Java way.

You should read Multitasking the Android Way.

To start the service:

startService(new Intent(ThisActivity.this, YourService.class));

To stop the service:

stopService(new Intent(ThisActivity.this, YourService.class));

They can be called from anywhere within your Activity.
