View 4 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Not Show A ProgressDialog From My Activity
Jun 17, 2010I 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.
Android :: Progressdialog Slow To Show
Oct 12, 2009I'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.
Android :: ProgressDialog Doesn't Show
May 9, 2010I'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.
Android :: Can't Show ProgressDialog During Listview Update
Feb 18, 2010I 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.

Android :: Trying To Show A Progressdialog In A Lengthy Task
Feb 17, 2010When 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:.......................
Android :: ProgressDialog Doesnt Show When Called
Sep 22, 2009I 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:

Android :: ProgressDialog Doesn't Show Up Until It's Too Late
Aug 13, 2010I'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.

Android :: Show ProgressDialog Until Activity UI Finished Loading
Jul 1, 2010Im 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?
Android :: Use AsyncTask To Show ProgressDialog While Doing Background Work
Oct 8, 2010I am developing my first Android App and I need a ProgressDialog to be showed while a background task, in this case just a http call on the server, happens.
I did a bit of studying on this and also have already checked other threads related to this subject.
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/AsyncTask.html
[url]
[url]
[url]
Among others.
Than I got to write a bit of code:
1) In My Activity I declare a variable to be of type ProgressDialog
code:............
2) I have also written an inner class to extend AsyncTask as required, here in the doInBackGround is where I call a static method which actually do the POST http request to the server, in the server side I have blocked the server response 20s to validate the progress dialog.
code:............
3) When the button is pressed I than build the ProgressDialog anc call the AsyncTask I have created:
code:...................
Well, this is it, I believe this was suppose to show a progress dialog while the AsyncTask would query the server in background, but what I get is NO progress bar until server response arrives and than for a fraction of time(less than 1 second) the progress shows and the next Activity is called.
Android :: During Refresh Operation - Show ProgressDialog Which Actually Is Never Visible
Mar 24, 2009I know that this is common problem, but still I cannot find the answer. I have two classes: InternetConnection extends Activity ConnectionChangeReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver
From ConnectionChangeReceiver I'm calling InternetConnection method which is refreshing UI when Internet connection is changed. The problem is that during refresh operation I'd like to show ProgressDialog which actually is never visible !!
So broadcast class looks like: public class ConnectionChangeReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver. Code...
Android :: ProgressDialog During Location Tasks Either Won't Show Or Force Closes
Dec 25, 2009ProgressDialog during location tasks either won't show or force closes - I have tried everything!
I now have it in a Handler with a full 1 second delay (one method another post suggested) but it doesn't show. I simply am stuck. Threads are usually force closing when I use those methods.
Android :: ProgressDialog Launched From OnItemClick Wait Until A Subsequent Thread's Run Method Returns To Show Itself
Jun 3, 2009I have code in my activity's onCreate that sets an onItemClick listener. when it fires I try to show a ProgressDialog that will be up until a subsequent thread "Thread" does it's processing. Strangely to me, the progress dialog never shows until *after* the thread.run() processing is complete. Almost like it's blocking. Am I doing something wrong? this is true even if the run method of doCurrentLocation doesn't do anything.

Android :: Automatically Show A Sub Menu At Startup?
Mar 3, 2010I've noticed that some users have not found my app's preferences sub menu, so I want to show that sub menu when the user first-time-ever starts the app.
Since onCreateOptionsMenu() would not have been called yet, how can I programmatically show such a sub menu?
BTW: openOptionsMenu() is not what I want because I want to open a sub menu. I suppose its part of the solution though. However, I get an exception when I call it:
Caused by: android.view.WindowManager$BadTokenException: Unable to add window -- token null is not valid; is your activity running? at android.view.ViewRoot.setView(ViewRoot.java:468) at android.view.WindowManagerImpl.addView(WindowManagerImpl.java: 177) at android.view.WindowManagerImpl.addView(WindowManagerImpl.java: 91) at android.view.Window$LocalWindowManager.addView(Window.java:424)
even though, at the same point in the code, I can successfully open new AlertDialogs.

Android :: Application Startup On Boot
Jun 8, 2010Other than downloading a 3rd party application that auto-starts apps on boot, is there a way within the OS itself to autostart programs when the phone reboots? I have a few apps I use for work and would be nice if they autostarted on my Droid without having to launch each one independently.

Apr 6, 2010When I start my application initially, I get a black screen which stays for a few seconds before my main activity starts. In case of iphone an image with name default is displayed for that split second. I am not sure how to do the same in android. I tried as below in vain

Android :: Application That Reads File From Internal Storage On Startup
Aug 3, 2010I am writing a app that reads a file from the internal storage on startup. I have followed the guildelines here:
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/data-storage.html#file...
It successfully works on the emulator, and I can find the file my app created under
DDMS > data > data > com.MyAppName > files.
Now I would like to install my app on a real device, but do I need to explicitly copy the file onto the device? If so, what's the location should I copy the file to? Or will the file be created when I install my app? I need some pointers or guidelines, I'm quite clueless about the device. Or perhaps if anyone knows any keywords for me to search for an answer.
Application Scroll To First Edit Field On Startup?
Oct 5, 2011I'm debugging my first Android app and when running in the emulator it seems fine. The main view appears and no edit fields have focus. I see the full screen including the introduction text at the top.
When I start this on my Vodafone 858 Smart phone, the view scrolls down to the first edit field (which is a phone number field) and also pops up the number pad. I have removed the 'focus' tags from my mains.xml, so I do not see why it's scrolling to the first edit field.
Android SDK 2.2 (8)
what I can modify to prevent this?
Motorola Droid :: Startup Programs - Edit What Loads On Startup
Jan 7, 2010Every time I start my phone it seems that every program in the app catalog starts up. Until I activate the Advanced Task Killer and shut them all down, the thing runs like a hog. I have quite a few programs installed, but I dont use them all all of the time. Why do they all start up and is there any way beside the ATK to stop them? Is there any way to modify the startup files?
View 4 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Creating Static Data Structure On Application Startup For Android
Oct 27, 2010In my application, I am going to create a few listviews that are dependent on the listview before it. For example,Then, depending on user choice, will go next screen, let's say, it contains a submenu of each type of school,that may be different or may be the same to other states.What I want to know, is how to populate these different lists dynamically as the user goes on? I don't know what the best of doing this is, and I seem to be looking in the all the wrong places because I keep getting stuck. Once all the data is added into whatever structure is used, it will be static. I basically just need help as to how to code information into some sort of hashtable or anything of the sort that can be easily referenced, and later when the Application is updated, be able to add more schools/states/submenus etc.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMotorola Droid X :: Phone Auto Application Updates / Now Stuck On Startup Screen
Nov 25, 2010I just bought my Droid X a couple of weeks ago (2.2 and Rooted). It wanted to do some auto app updates and I told it to do them all not sure if it was before or after that that I noticed a red light by the ear "piece/speaker" and the phone was on and a battery level warning came on which I thought was premature. I plugged in the power cord the light went to green and I looked over a few minutes later and it was dead. I could be a little off on what happened when but that's what happened.
It wont power on now and I've tried holding a few different buttons while powering on and still nothing. I did check the settings the other day and it was successfully backing itself up not sure how to use that backup though. I just looked over after typing this post and the Motorola "M" was on the screen but I couldn't get it to do anything so I pulled the battery and tried again to boot it and nothing.

Android :: How Long Does It Take For Application To Show Up In Market?
Jan 19, 2010Once you fill out the submission form and upload the apk, assuming the file is signed properly, etc, how long does it take an application to show up in the Market?The Dev Guide doesn't appear to mention this detail. I'm guessing it should show up almost immediately since I've never read anything about waiting for an approval process.
