Waiting in android app

android, multithreading, wait

Solution

Instead the thread sleeping concept you can use Handler...

new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable(){
    public void run() {
        Intent leveloverview = new Intent("com.technopolisapp.FROGLEVEL");
        startActivity(leveloverview);
    }
}, 5000);

This code may be helpful for you...

Problem

So I'm using in my android program A thread to wait a second or more, but sometimes it does it wright and sometimes it doesn't wait at all, so is there maybe another way to wait a couple of seconds? ``` Thread logotimer = new Thread(){ public void run(){ try{ sleep(1500); Intent leveloverview = new Intent("com.technopolisapp.FROGLEVEL"); startActivity(leveloverview); } catch(InterruptedException e){ e.printStackTrace(); } finally{ finish(); } } }; logotimer.start(); ```
