copied!<p>I have a little error i want to get rid of. I have no idea why this error occurs. The simulator and test phone runs perfect! The only info I have is the Stacktraces I got from the app users in android Market.</p> <pre><code>java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: View not attached to window manager at android.view.WindowManagerImpl.findViewLocked(WindowManagerImpl.java:355) at android.view.WindowManagerImpl.removeView(WindowManagerImpl.java:200) at android.view.Window$LocalWindowManager.removeView(Window.java:432) at android.app.Dialog.dismissDialog(Dialog.java:278) at android.app.Dialog.access$000(Dialog.java:71) at android.app.Dialog$1.run(Dialog.java:111) at android.os.Handler.handleCallback(Handler.java:587) at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:92) at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:123) at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:4627) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:521) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:858) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:616) at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method </code></pre> <p>First i thought the code below would cause the application to crash if the user change the phone's orientation while the progress dialog is not yet dismissed. I made shure the orientation would not change by adding: android:screenOrientation="portrait". But the error is still alive.</p> <p>Could any one help me out? This is a code example which i use:</p> <pre><code>final ProgressDialog pd = ProgressDialog.show(this, "Title", "Message", true, false); new Thread(new Runnable(){ public void run(){ makeHttpRequest(); pd.dimiss(); } }).start(); </code></pre>
