[android-developers] Re: app freezes on slow connection waiting for response from mysql server
Is the connection to the server in seperate thread than the UI? If not, one of the way to do is described here http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/AsyncTask.html On Mar 22, 9:34 pm, acr acr...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, I have an app that I set up to connect/parse json data/HttpPost to a mysql server via php.. Everything works perfectly if there is a basic connection, and if there is no connection my handlers work flawlessly. The problem is when the server is slow to respond like 15-30+ seconds the activity just freezes. I cannot add a progress dialog to handle it, the app freezes until the android dialog pops up stating Force Close or Wait if I click wait it will eventually get up and running. Anyone know how to handle this situation so if the connections is dreadfully slow it doesn't cause the activity/app to freeze?
