So I had used AsyncTask as a solution (not sure any different way out). </p> <p>Everything is fine, the ProgressDialog works properly until I call .get() method using AsyncTask instance. I suppose it's blocking UI somehow. Here is my AsyncTask:</p> <pre class="lang-java prettyprint-override"><code>public class myAsync extends AsyncTask&lt;String, String, List&gt; { String message; // for dialog message ProgressDialog progress; Intent myIntent; Context ctx; public myAsync(String message, Context ctx) { this.message = message; this.ctx = ctx; progress = new ProgressDialog(ctx); } @Override protected void onPreExecute() { progress.setMessage(message); progress.setIndeterminate(true); progress.setCancelable(false); progress.show(); } @Override protected List doInBackground(String... params) { //returns any list after the task return anyList; } @Override protected void onPostExecute(List result) { if(progress.isShowing()) progress.dismiss(); } } </code></pre> <p>And here is myActivity which is calls AsyncTask:</p> <pre class="lang-java prettyprint-override"><code>myAsync asyncTask = new myAsync("Loading...", this); asyncTask.execute("Any string", "Other string"); asyncTask.get(); // If I comment out this line, ProgressDialog works </code></pre> <p>After execute, when I tried to log the result from doInBackground and onPostExecute both there is no problem. But if I want to get with .get() the result ProgressDialog is not shown or shown so little time (maybe 0.2 seconds)</p> <p>What's the problem? </p>
