try this:: AsyncTask enables proper and easy use of the UI thread. This class allows to perform background operations and publish results on the UI thread without having to manipulate threads and/or handlers.

An asynchronous task is defined by a computation that runs on a background thread and whose result is published on the UI thread. An asynchronous task is defined by 3 generic types, called Params, Progress and Result, and 4 steps, called onPreExecute, doInBackground, onProgressUpdate and onPostExecute

    private class xyz extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void> {
                private final ProgressDialog dialog = new ProgressDialog(tranning.this);

                protected void onPreExecute() {
                    this.dialog.setMessage("Please Wait...");
                    this.dialog.show();

                    // put your code which preload with processDialog  


            @Override
            protected Void doInBackground(Void... arg0) {

                // put you code here
if(ElGiftoAppData.getAppData().arSelectedGender.size() == 0)  
            {

                String strMsg = "Please select a gender";
                DisplaySelectionMessage(strMsg);             
                return;
            }

            if(ElGiftoAppData.getAppData().arSelectedAge.size() == 0)
            {
                progressDlg.dismiss();
                String strMsg = "Please select an age";  
                DisplaySelectionMessage(strMsg);               
                return;
            }

        if(nMatchingGifts == 0)
        {

            tvCount = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textMatchinGifts);
            String strContent = "# of Matching Gifts: 0";
            tvCount.setText(strContent);                                                        
            String strMsg = "No gifts found! Please change the search criteria.";
            DisplaySelectionMessage(strMsg);               
            return; 
        }               

        try
        {                   
            //Thread for getting the negative attributes values
            Thread tDisplayCategories = new Thread() 
            {
                public void run()
                {  


                    System.out.println("Showgifts : Thread:run");
                    handlerDisplayGifts.post(call_ShowGiftsCategoryPage);
                }                                                                                          
            };
            tDisplayCategories.start();
        }
        catch(Exception exp)
        {

        }
            }

                return null;
            }
protected void onPostExecute(final Void unused) {
                if (this.dialog.isShowing()) {
                  this.dialog.dismiss();

                }

            }
        }

and use this in your button click event ::

 new xyz().execute();

click event means click listener. is it correct? i put like this bShowGifts.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { new showgiftsbtn().execute(); } }); — naresh, Sep 08 '11 at 07:44

Use Handler to show ProgressBar() ....

private Handler mHandler = new Handler();

final Runnable mUpdateResults = new Runnable() {
       public void run() {
      progressDlg = ProgressDialog.show(Ehome.this, "", "", true);                            
            progressDlg.setContentView(R.layout.custom_dialog);
       }
};

put the above code above your class code and call this where you show progressBar(); like this:

mHandler.post(mUpdateResults );
