title: getApplicationContext() returns null in a Service
body: <p>I have a Service in it's own process, I've declared it in manifest like that:</p>
  
  <pre><code>   &lt;service
          android:name="com.discountscatcher.util.PointService"
          android:configChanges="orientation"
          android:process=":pointservice" &gt;
      &lt;/service&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But <code>onStartCommand</code> I was trying to get an <code>ApplicationContext</code>, but it always returns null, what I can forget? </p>
  
  <pre><code>    public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
      android.os.Debug.waitForDebugger();
      Context mContext = getApplicationContext();
      return Service.START_STICKY;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and I starting it like that:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    startService(new Intent(getApplicationContext(), PointService.class));
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>in <code>Myactivity OnCreate</code></p>
  
  <p>any ideas?</p>
