Hi Aquinas, I know it is over a month late, but just in case anyone else comes and looks for this as I did. I was having a similar issue in that I could not update my entire custom dialog, this is the result of the activity "caching" the dialog. After reading the API a bit closer I found this:
"If you use showDialog(int), the activity will call through to this method the first time, and hang onto it thereafter." in regards to the Dialog class In order ensure onCreateDialog() is called each time, instead of dismissing the dialog, call removeDialog(). I hope this helps, Kevin On Sep 27, 9:24 pm, aquinas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks.
