Splash Screen does not appear in android application

Question

public class SplashScreen extends Activity {
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash_screen);

    try {
        Thread.sleep(5000);
    } catch(InterruptedException ex) {
        Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
    }

    Intent LoginActivity = new Intent(SplashScreen.this, LoginActivity.class);
    startActivity(LoginActivity);
    finish();
}

}

with activity_splash_screen is layout of splash screen. My app has displayed white screen instead of my splash-image.

when I do not set the next action LoginActivity my splash-image comes back!

public class SplashScreen extends Activity {
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash_screen);

    try {
        Thread.sleep(5000);
    } catch(InterruptedException ex) {
        Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
    }

    // Intent LoginActivity = new Intent(SplashScreen.this, LoginActivity.class);
    // startActivity(LoginActivity);
    finish();
}

}

You shouldn't call Thread.sleep() on your main thread. Try this instead:

        new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {

        @Override
        public void run() {
            Intent LoginActivity = new Intent(SplashScreen.this, LoginActivity.class);
            startActivity(LoginActivity);
            finish();
        }
    }, 5000);

@ĐôngNguyễnTrọng Remove this: `try { Thread.sleep(5000); } catch(InterruptedException ex) { Thread.currentThread().interrupt(); }` – questioner May 10 '15 at 18:35
I want to set splash-screen theme over certain duration (which I customize) when the app starting running time. In login activity, there is another theme! – Đông Nguyễn Trọng May 10 '15 at 18:52
