Hey all - this code might be a bit messy in the way I'm trying to clean up the handler as I've been trying to track down where the crash happens...
I've got a dialog activity that is showing a password entry with a progressbar being animated by a thread and handler...
It seems that when I'm attempting to see if the progressbar is done, and trying to kill the thread, the way I'm doing this is messing something up when I try to go to a new activity - ie in a way calling a function and not having anything to return to or something...
public class RMO_Dialog extends Activity {
private ProgressBar progbar;
private Button dialogOK;
private EditText dialogPass;
private SharedPreferences prefs;
private String pass;
private int increment=10;
private Thread background;
private Boolean commCalled=false;
public void callCommunications(){
progbar.setVisibility(0);
progbar.setProgress(0);
background.stop();
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Call communication should happen once.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
// Intent i = new Intent();
// i.setClass(RMO_Dialog.this, RMO_Comm.class);
// i.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
// startActivity(i);
// finish();
}
public void buzzUser(){
Vibrator v = (Vibrator) getSystemService(Context.VIBRATOR_SERVICE);
int dot = 200;
int dash = 500;
int short_gap = 200;
int medium_gap = 500;
int long_gap = 1000;
long[] pattern = {0,dot, short_gap, dot, short_gap, dot, medium_gap, dash, short_gap, dash, short_gap, dash, medium_gap, dot, short_gap,
dot, short_gap, dot, long_gap};
v.vibrate(pattern, -1);
}
public void killCountdown(){
progbar.setVisibility(0);
progbar.setProgress(0);
background.stop();
}

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.dialogpassword);

dialogOK = (Button) findViewById(R.id.dialogOK);

Thread.sleep(300);
progressHandler.sendMessage(progressHandler.obtainMessage());
}
}catch(java.lang.InterruptedException e){
