Also, if it is a "things are progressing" display rather than an About box, why aren't you using an android.Widget.ProgressBar instead? People are used to seeing a Progress Bar disappear when the underlying things are done. But they are not so used to About boxes (or things like them) disappearing.
Besides: what is the point of making an entire Activity for this? Of course, since I don't know your app, I can't be 100% sure, but it does sound like overkill.
