You need to update your progress bar in a separate thread to the the main (UI) one, see the example here:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ProgressBar.html What you have is saying "When creating the activity, loop 1000 times and change the progress bar position value each time. Then display the activity (including progress bar) to the user."
