Not to mention the fact that, since the OP is doing all the TextView updates in a tight loop, only the last one will wind up having a visual impact. >> What I really want to do is to get the sound level in the mic while >> the program is running, I have the code for that but I don't know how >> to make it check the sound level periodically. Option #1: Do it when the user tells you to do it, via a button push or something. Option #2: Think long and hard about going with option #1. Option #3: Use postDelayed() on some widget to set up a periodic task. Option #4: Honestly, particularly for tying up and listening on a microphone, I would think the users would want to control the timing of it, so option #1 really should be the answer. Option #5: Use TimerTask, as per regular Java. Option #6: Fork a thread that uses SystemClock.sleep() and a Handler. Option #7: Use AsyncTask, where you sleep() for a bit in doInBackground() and check the mic/schedule the next task in onPostExecute(). -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android App Developer Training: http://commonsware.com/training.html --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
