In other words, while most IntentService methods run off the main thread, but ''onStartCommand()'' runs on the main thread.

===== Permissions? =====

You will probably continue to see editor rage even after you add the location services permissions to //AndroidManifest.xml//. The autofix will suggest that you "Add Permission Check." This is because permission handling has [[https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html|changed in Android 6.0 (API level 23)]]. Instead of the permissions being asked for at install time, they are now asked at run time.

> If the device is running Android 5.1 or lower, **or** your app's target SDK is 22 or lower: If you list a dangerous permission in your manifest, the user has to grant the permission when they install the app; if they do not grant the permission, the system does not install the app at all.
>
> If the device is running Android 6.0 or higher, **and** your app's target SDK is 23 or higher: The app has to list the permissions in the manifest, and it must request each dangerous permission it needs while the app is running. The user can grant or deny each permission, and the app can continue to run with limited capabilities even if the user denies a permission request. 

For the purposes of this app, we can work around this change by targeting SDK 22 instead of SDK 23. But if you plan on going further with Android development, you should carefully read the developer documentation regarding [[https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html|requesting permissions]].

To downgrade the target SDK to 22, with the left panel set to "Android" mode, open //Grade Scripts > Build.grade ()// and change
<code>
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.hfad.odometer"
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 23
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }
</code> to
<code>
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.hfad.odometer"
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 22
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }</code>

The IDE will tell you that the project needs to be synced, which you should do. And for good measure, from the menu bar, do a //Build > Clean Project//.
