That's not true. Android supports basic Java Threads and there's no reason for not to use them when appropriate. But the thing is, you can not alter UI components outside of UI Thread. In your case it would be updating the textual contents of TextView. See method named runOnUiThread , it gives easy access for executing UI code from Threads. -- H -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
