A TileService provides the user a tile that can be added to Quick Settings. Quick Settings is a space provided that allows the user to change settings and take quick actions without leaving the context of their current app.
The lifecycle of a TileService is different from some other services in that it may be unbound during parts of its lifecycle. Any of the following lifecycle events can happen independently in a separate binding/creation of the service.
When a tile is added by the user its TileService will be bound to and onTileAdded() will be called.
When a tile should be up to date and listing will be indicated by onStartListening() and onStopListening().
When the user removes a tile from Quick Settings onTileRemoved() will be called.
onTileAdded() and onTileRemoved() may be called outside of the Service.onCreate() - onDestroy() window
