How to stop an android framework service?

[tolemaC]

Hi,

I want to make changes in some applications at /data/app from an
script launch from "on property:propertyname=value" trigger

When I'm making this changes the PackageManagerService is running and
try to load the changes.

I think that I need to stop PackageManagerService, I can use "service"
command to see the framework services and check the services status,
but I don't found the way to "stop" and "start" these services.

Do you know some way to do it?
Any ideas?

I have try stopping and starting zygote but this restart the framework
and I don't want it.

Thanks in advance.

Of course, I have to start the PackageManager service when the changes
has finished.

Because AlarmManagerService holds wake_lock that belongs to
powerManager mechanism. the phone can not go into sleep.
How can I close Alarm Service and related applications that holds the
wakelock ?
i want to help !
thanks in advance!

You can stop and relaunch the entire Android runtime from adb:

$ adb shell stop
$ adb shell start

The alarm manager only holds it while sending the alarm broadcast.  Once the app is done (or it takes to long and times out), the alarm manager will receive the result and release the wake lock.

There is no need to make it stop holding the wake lock.  That would actually break the behavior here, which includes a guarantee by the alarm manager that it will keep the device awake for the application to receive the alarm notification.
