I was following the progress dialog example in the ApiDemos.
all went great except for one thing - I want to remove the numbers that appear underneath the bar (those running numbers that run from 0 to .getMax().
couldn't find how to do it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMe and my trusty G1 have recently moved out of the US. Im running CM's latest, and just like the stock ROM, phone numbers stored in the phone have the xxx-xxx-xxxx US format. This format does not apply to most countries outside of the US. So here when someone calls (or when im trying to add a new contact) phone numbers tend to look weird since phone numbers here have an XX-XXX-XXX format (8 digits total), and so they end up showing as XXX-XXX-XX, which is just confusing.
So in short, is there any way to stop the dashes from showing up in the call log/ caller id/adding new contact form??
It would be interesting to know if the number of people buying apps is growing as fast as the number developing them. Has anyone seen data about either?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI try to show a ProgressDialog at the beginning of my application from an Activity. I debug the application and in theory the dialog is created because it prints a line from onCreateDialog... method.
For more test, I try to show a toast with:
Toast.makeText(MyActivity.this, "test", Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
And nothing is showed.
If is useful, the application is a widget.
I'm starting a ProgressDialog using:
ProgressDialog.show(Example.this, " " , " Loading. Please wait ... ", true,true);
Then running a block of code to download and parse XML.
The problem I'm having is that this is all running under a onClick button method, and that the xml is downloaded and parsed before the dialog is shown.
I'm trying to create a ProgressDialog for an Android-App (just a simple one showing the user that stuff is happening, no buttons or anything) but I can't get it right. I've been through forums and tutorials as well as the Sample-Code that comes with the SDK, but to no avail.
This is what I got:
CODE:..........
I've also tried adding pd.show(); and messed around with the parameter in new ProgressDialog resulting in nothing at all (except errors that the chosen parameter won't work), meaning: the ProgressDialog won't ever show up. The app just keeps running as if I never added the dialog.
I just tried to implement a progressdialog and I have some issues to change the text during my long and complex calculations.

I can clearly see the incrementProgressBy working and my dialog updating, but the message does not change.
Any idea on how to make that work?
I have a context menu option that, when clicked, will load some information from the web and insert it into a database.So this is a lengthy process and I would like to display a progressdialog over the top of the context menu when this option is selected.I've got the progressdialog running now, but it won't show up.It's almost like the context menu is covering it.So is there a way that I could get the progressdialog to show up on top of the context menu and be visible to the user.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a listview of items (songs on the sd card). The user has an option to load all the songs on the sd card to into a current playlist -- those songs are what is displayed in the listview. Because this can take few seconds to load if they have a lot of songs on the card, I want to display a progress dialog to just tell the user "One moment..." until the list refresh is done.
I launch a thread to do this. I've done this successfully on another app I have (which just updates a database in the background but doesn't update any display), but this one fails with this error message, "Can't create handler inside thread that has not called Looper.prepare()". I chopped down the activity and pasted it below. What am I doing wrong here? I have just a vague idea of what might be happening.
By the way, everything works when I take out the threaded stuff, it just looks like the app freezes for a couple seconds.

When i first launch my main intent, i check if the application was updated and, if yes, i decompress some asset files. This task can take up to 15 seconds (to decompress a 6MB zip file).
So, i was trying to show a ProgressDialog to the user. However, nothing in hell makes the dialog appear.
The lengthy method is called from onCreate. I already tried to put it in onStart, but same thing. I also tried to run it in the ui thread, same thing: no dialog appears, even if "isShowing" returns true.
This is the code:.......................
I have some code in my program that processes some stuff, and takes a few seconds. So I thought logically I can place my dialog show at the beginning before processing begins, and cancel it at the end. What ACTUALLY seems to be happening is my dialog shows after the processing is done... Some demo code to show what I mean with a simple sleep:

What is wrong with this code:-
CODE..................
I'm writing an Activity which fetches some XML from the web via HTTP and then parses it into a DOM. It then pulls some required data from the DOM.
As you can imagine, this takes a few moments, so I put that code into it's own thread and then tried to set up a ProgressDialog to display while the user is waiting for that to complete.
The problem is that the ProgressDialog doesn't display at all. If I remove the call to dismiss() then it displays after the work is done and, obviously, just sits there...
Here is my code:..................
The constructor of the FighterVersesDownloader is where all the work in terms of HTTP and DOM is done.
Any ideas on what I'm missing? I've seen a few similar threads on this using AsyncTask, but I wanted to use good old fashioned Threads directly and the solutions suggested don't apply.
I can't seem to grasp why this is happening.
This code:...................
Throws the following exception:
CODE:...........
I'm calling this from the onCreate method.
What I want is just to have the AsyncTaskTask showing a progressbar an external class. To do this I am passing the context as you can see in the main class. But whatever I try I get NullPointerException.
Working code examples.
Using Android 2.2 by the way.
main:
CODE:............
Update:
I have a follow up question: Using the above code, is it possible to return a value from the onPostExecute method back to the main class, somehow? (Sorry about beeing noobish)
I have tried something like this:
String result = new AsyncClass(this).execute();
and then a method that return back a string. But I can't do that because i got:
Type mismatch: cannot convert from AsyncTask<String,Void,Void> to String
I just about got this, but I have a small problem in the order of things going off.
Specifically, in my thread() I am setting up an array that is used by a Spinner. Problem is the Spinner is all set and done basically before my thread() is finished, so it sets itself up with a null array.
How do I associate the spinners ArrayAdapter with an array that is being loaded by another thread?
I've cut the code down to what I think is necessary to understand the problem, but just let me know if more is needed. The problem occurs whether or not refreshData() is called.
Along the same lines, sometimes I want to call loadData() from the menu. Directly following loadData() if I try to fire a toast on the next line this causes a forceclose, which is also because of how I'm implementing ProgressDialog.
CODE:...............
I tried changing onCreate() to the following after Jims suggestion.
Not sure if I did this right, still doesn't work:

I'm trying to make a simple ProgressDialog appear while my AsyncTask is fetching data. In my onPreExecute() method I have this: pd = ProgressDialog.show(c, "Loading...", "Please wait");
c is the context passed into the constructor of my AsyncTask from this.getApplicationContext(). Unfortunately, I keep getting an exception with this message: Unable to add window -- Token null is not for an application
What am I doing wrong?
Using this instead of this.getApplicationContext() has revealed another problem. When I call ProgressDialog.show(..., a ProgressDialog is displayed, but not until after the AsyncTask has completed. In other words, the data loads and then the dialog is displayed. If I include pd.dismiss() in my onPostExecute() then I never even see the dialog (presumable because it is closed before it ever gets opened).
It turns out that fetch.get() was hogging the UI thread and not letting the ProgressDialog display.
I'd like to change the rotating image inside the ProgressDialog.
In the documentation this is suggested:

This can be changed with:

Im trying to show a ProgressDialog while the activity is loading. my problem is that although i completed all the work in the activity. it takes a long time for the activity to load, i suspect this is because i use
multiple views with multiple listviews with custom array adapters inside a viewflipper. it takes a long time for the UI to show.how would i go about checking that all the UI inside the activity finished loading? or is there a way to preload all the activity and the UI?
