I am having issue that if AsyncTask is running during fragment transaction then the fragments become white(no content is displayed) so is there any way to stop AsyncTask during fragment transaction and resume once transaction is completed.

You have to call asyncTask.cancel() and then your code in asyncTask.doInBackground() must test periodically what isCancelled() returns, if true it must return as soon as possible.

Finally when doInBackground returns asyncTask.onCancelled() will be called on the UI thread.

You have to keep the reference of the AysncTask like:

MyAysncTask asyncTask = new MyAysncTask();
asyncTask.execute();

then in onPause() or before calling transaction.commit() call asyncTask.cancel().

Hope it will help!!!

instanitiate

aTask = new YourAsyncTask().execute();

cancel it like this:

aTask.cancel(true);
