[Feature request] Could you create a button for background service reset cleary?

[redburn82]

This request from a last comment of #46: pull request.
Please consider to make a button for about clean restart of background service.

---

Thank you for that you consider this un-common issue.
( Frankly I didn't notice "Inputs not working after some time #38" ever. :-o )

Actually i already knew your code because it was one of the 2 solutions i though about.
It would be working fine but i have a worry something.
Because i've encountered another patten of exception but not caught it exactly so..
Anyway the easy way for handling or escaping from un-handled exception might be needed i think.

For example, if droidVNC has a button explicitly for clean restart background service include every states or variables, it could be more stable when unknown exceptions occures.

Could you consider about it?

Thanks.

I would rather have some form of automatic recovery - in which specific situations should the restart be necessary?

[redburn82]

Actually, i've been using "droidVNC" as sub-infortainment system on tesla browser.
The most important thing of this case, i have to use vnc interface when i'm on driving.
So when a unexpected error occures suddenly, i need a method to fix it immediately.

But when i encountered "Inputs not working after some time" issue before analysing this issue,
automatic recovery has seem not to be working well.
I had to do "App Data & Cache clear" because it was a only way for resolve at that time because
could't make it normal with some generic way as i can do as user. like app force close or so on.

At that time, I did "hamburger menu >> close all" on my android phone,
but droidvnc background service was still alived.
it mean that if there is a problem on background service not control pannel then user can't resolve it easy.

Plus, user can't know a timing when it be fixed after unexpected error has occured.
so i think auto-recover is not enough when droidVNC has to be turned on always.
for example using GPS navigator with droidVNC.

The "background service reset" button is actually the "Stop" button in the Admin Panel, this stops a running droidVNC-NG service.
