Yes we agree now that it is not a trigger message problem.

So what method is there to kill or stop the handler? I could not find
it.
Moreover, killing the old handler will not solve the problem with the
out-of-control new progress dialog tha
Because it's the old Handler for the old ProgressDialog. A new
ProgressDialog is created when the screen orientation change. That new
progress dialog should have a new handle to take care of it. And the
activity should stop the handler in onDestroy() to avoid keeping it
running for a while after a
Adding one debug output line to AlertDialogSamples.java to get
super.handleMessage(msg);
Log.i("OIC", "mProgress = " + mProgress);
shows that the handler keeps incrementing mProgress under the
condition that I mentioned, but without dismissing the dialog when
mProgress reaches 100 (and ind
The bug is just in the sample application: it should call
mProgressHandler.sendEmptyMessage(previousProgress) after an
orientation change and if the progress dialog is showing. There is no
cleanup problem or conflict or anything like this.

For my own use I do not care if the progress dialog continues from
where it was or starts all over, so I need no save/restore of its
state. However, the fact that the progress bar does not start at all
after changing screen orientation suggests a bug. The impression I got
is that the progress dial
It's actually easy to circumvent. On orientation change, the activity
should save the current progress value in its Bundle (in
onSaveInstanceState().) Then, when the activity is recreated, it
should read this value back and resume the progress from where it
stopped.

Yes the dialog should remain visible but be automatically dismissed
after the progress bar fills up, just like when one does not change
the screen orientation. It is the restarting of the application (I
noticed that in my own app) that apparently gets the running progress
dialog handling messed up
This is the correct behavior. The dialog should remain visible after a
screen orientation change. There is a bug though, the progress bar
should be filled automatically even after a screen rotation.
