You can't. Though if you really want to you can, by placing your "main" code in a secondary thread and having it communicate with the UI thread. It can send a message to the UI thread to display the current configuration, then wait for the UI thread to respond that a button has been pressed. But the problem you run into is that the Android OS may want to deep- six your thread to free up RAM if the app is backgrounded. Dunno how you handle that.
