Dianne, Thank you for your quick answer!

I will assume not compatible means not possible for now and will try to figure out why later (time permitting). > If you want a thread running a looper, use HandlerThread. Although I didnt know about HandlerThread, I have already extended Thread basically like HandlerThread does (aside from setting priorities). From now on I will use HandlerThread however, for sake of conforming to APIs. I would have preferred using AsyncTask only because its GUI callbacks (onProgressUpdate(), etc.) are sooo convenient/easy to read. Kudos to whoever came up with it.
