6. Download manager
7. StrictMode（对上层开发人员来说也许很重要）
http://androidappdocs.appspot.com/reference/android/os/StrictMode.html
StrictMode is a developer tool which detects things you might be doing by accident and brings them to your attention so you can fix them.
StrictMode is most commonly used to catch accidental disk or network access on the application's main thread, where UI operations are received and animations take place. Keeping disk and network operations off the main thread makes for much smoother, more responsive applications. By keeping your application's main thread responsive, you also prevent ANR dialogs from being shown to users.
