progress bar on the basis of percentage

Question

I want to make a progress bar for my android application on the basis of percentage ,like percentage starts with 100 and decreases to 0 . So that I want to move my progress bar from 100 to 0 percentage ,decrease it from the max to minimum. can anybody help me?

Using a progressbar with a decreasing percentage does not make sense. The word 'progress' indicates something is increasing. Next to that, have you done any research? — Leon Joosse, Jul 05 '13 at 10:09
no .well I have seen some android applications using bars like that. So i am directly asking here to save my time :P — Amad Zafar, Jul 05 '13 at 10:12

Use AsyncTask and show the download progress in a dialog

Use publishProgress() in AsyncTask to show

You can refer to this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/3028660/1441666

Write this in doInBackground

           while ((count = input.read(data)) != -1) {
                total += count;
                // publishing the progress....
                publishProgress((int) (total * 100 / fileLength));
                output.write(data, 0, count);
            }

And then

@Override
protected void onProgressUpdate(Integer... progress) {
    super.onProgressUpdate(progress);
    mProgressDialog.setProgress(progress[0]);
}
