Android :: Service - Show Progress In Activity
Jan 2, 2010
I have a service that downloads something from the Internet, it shows progress in notifications and in MyActivity (only when MyActivity is on foreground of course). How should the service post the progress to MyActivity? I know this could be done somehow with IBind but can I just simply do this in MyActivity:
MySevice.myActivity = this; startService(new Intent(....));
From MyService I can now call MyActivity's methods because I have a static reference to it in MySevice.myActivity, so I can call e.g. myActivity.sendProgress(63).

this is the current state/situation: I have an Activity which binds a Service which creates AsyncTasks which downloads various web resources. That works well, but of course the ProgressBar shows nothing. Previously i had an Activity which created an AsyncTask which downloaded some stuff. The AsyncTask got the View which holds the ProgressBar. So i could update the progress using onProgressUpdate and publishProgress. Obviously this doesn't work any longer because I have no reference to the ProgressBar.

I am creating an app that show a Progress dialog in AsyncTask to inform the user while web information is being fetched. I've read there are two ways of doing this: Using handlers or creating and executing an inner class that overrides the AsyncTask class. I am trying to create and executing inner class that overrides the AsyncTask class, which runs a resource-intensive thread in the background, to provide progress updates, and reports back when finished.
On the OnCreate, I have: protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) { return ProgressDialog.show(ListSituation.this, "", "Loading. Please wait...", true); }

In the android market app, the ListView shows a 'ProgressView' during the loading of the content of the ListView, and then when the loading is done, it shows the content of the ListView.

I have a tabhost that contains three tabs showing three separate activities. One of those activities needs to show the indeterminate progress bar on the title bar. If I set that activity as the MAIN, everything works fine. As soon as I use a tabhost to show the activity, I cannot show an indeterminate progress on the title bar for the tabhost activity. One way could be to have methods on the tabhost class that show the progress on it's title bar, but I do not know how to access those methods from outside the tabhost (for example, from another activity).

An application I'm building uses a local Service for downloading files from the web to the phone's SD card. In this app users can browse lists of books, and read them while online. A user can also download a pdf copy of a book for offline viewing. To handle downloads I'm using a locally bound Service. I do not want this Service to run all the time, only when downloading files. So that the Service can shut itself down when its tasks are complete, I am not binding to the service, rather I'm sending an "enqueue for download" command through the Intent passed to Context.startService.
Books available for download are shown in a list. A user can choose to download a book by clicking on its row in the list. On download, I need to show download progress using a ProgressBar on the actual book list row. I need to also show, on the rows, if a book is enqueued for download, or if its download has completed or failed. The books can be shown in different activities throughout the application--in search, or in the user's list of favorite books, for example. When the books are shown in different places, these are not the same objects, but they are uniquely identified by their bookId...............

I have been searching for an answer for this for some time now. I have an async task that downloads the database needed for my app, while this is downloading my app cant do anything as all the data it references is in this file, i have the app waiting for the file to be downloaded but i am attempting to show a progress dialog so the user knows something is happening while they wait for this to happen.however nothing shows up i have also tried directly calling ProgressDialog.show in the pre execute and moving this to the calling activity with no luck.

I like to do some long running initializing work in a remote service, and during that, a progress dialog shall be shown. So basicly, I invoke ProgressDialog.show, run a oneway method of the service with a callback to be invoked when it's finished, and in the callback dismiss the dialog. I expected the service method to work in it's own process while the activity shows the progress dialog. But what happens instead (according to debugger and logs) is: ProgressDialog.show and service method invocation return immediately, then the service method is processed, and finally the progress dialog is shown for a few milliseconds right before it's dismissed. Even a "not responding" error might occur during that. If I invoke the service method in an own thread, which (as it's to be expected) is finished long before the service method is done, everything works fine. But I don't get why this is necessary. Why does a remote service method block the Activity thread? This even happens if the service method only does a Handler.post and returns immediately.
Simplyfied code overview: Activity: public void onStart() { startService(...); bindService(...);}

My application involves doing some calculation on the first activity and sending the information to the second activity. So while the calculation is being done , I want to show a activity / progress / busy indicator on the first activity , before going to the second one. Is there any way of doing so, or an sample code that does the same. I was also looking out for the same by calling the calculation method after a delay so that the progress bar is shown first before the calculation is done , but this has also failed.

I am trying to upload a video to an api and I was wondering how you show a progress bar show and also dismiss it when an upload has finished? Also, while were at it, do you see anything wrong with my pattern.compile for my edit boxes?
Code:
public class Loadvid extends AsyncTask <Object,Integer,String>{
EditText etxt_user = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.user_email);
EditText etxt_pass = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.friend_email);
[code]...
But it doesn't work. When i click on the button to send, it shows the handler for 2 seconds then brings up an error close.Error log.

I encounter a problem with a ProgressDialog in a PreferencesActivity in my application.What I want to do is pop up a ProgressDialog after the user has changed his username or password during the check on the remote server. In the onSharedPreferenceChanged() I call the ProgressDialog.show() method. Sometimes it works fine, sometimes not at all.

Whenever the memory needs to be reclaimed, the process is being killed by Activity Manager Service in killPidsForProcess. I have a back button in my activity window on right corner of the title bar.
I want to kill the activity completely on clicking the close button. Can I reuse the same function and will it have any major effect? Please help me out in this.

I am doing something similar to the below:
private void onCreate() {
final ProgressDialog dialog = ProgressDialog.show(this, "Please wait..", "Doing stuff..", true);
Thread t = new Thread() {
public void run() {
//do some serious stuff...
dialog.dismiss();
}
};
t.start();
t.join();
stepTwo();
}
However, what I am finding is that my progress dialog never even shows up. My App stalls for a moment so I know it is chugging along inside of thread t, but why doesnt my dialog appear? IF I remove the line: t.join(); Then what I find happens is that the progress dialog does show up, but my app starts stepTwo(); before what happens in the thread is complete..

I have some data I load into the database the first time a user enters my Activity, and want to show a ProgressDialog while this data is loaded for the first time. My Activity is an ExpandableListActivity and I don't create the SimpleExpandableListAdapter or call setListAdapter passing my adapter until I'm sure the data is actually there. My onCreate looks like this:
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
mCategoryDbHelper = new CategoryDBHelper(this);
// Build default categories... if not there yet
CategoryDbBuilder builder = new CategoryDbBuilder(this);................
