Meh, to me that's just band-aiding the problem. The core issue here is that they anticipate getting the log from each user approximately once every day or two (that's on average when people plug in their phones to charge). I would just keep track of the timestamp of the previous log upload, and simply ignore the Intent if it's within a certain threshold (say, less than 12 hours ago).

Do you think it makes sense with the mobile architecture to have an application store its current state? This is obviously a more general question regarding mobile application architecture. This would specifically to be handle broadcast listeners performing conflicting actions.

application state storage is part of the package with android isn't it? that's how apps always start up where you left off, even if the OS killed them to free up memory.
