    Hi there
    I am developing an application using new unity 4.6 gui tools. I want my chat application to be run always in background whenever the phone is turned on so that local chat notifications can be shown.
    Thanks in advance

    You will have to write a java plugin to create a service as well as registering that service in the Android Manifest. I would recommend writing the plugin as an Android Library Project.
