Progress Dialog Problem In Android

I want to create a simple ProgressDialog in my Activity. I created it like this: protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); s

Solution 1:

progDailog=ProgressDialog.show(getParent(),"HI", "Loading");

Solution 2:

You can't show the dialog before the activity became visible to the user. Call the showing in onResume() or in some button onClickListener.

Solution 3:

If you create a new Thread and set it to sleep for some time, only the new Thread sleeps. That has no effect on the UI-Thread where you'r Activity is created! Also, this isn't a good way of doing this anyways.

Also, you can't show the Dialog before your Activity became visible. Try it in the onStart-method.
