Your loading shouldn't be done on the main event thread. You should
have some modes/state machine that shows some kind of splash and then
does the loading in another thread.
I have modes and a stack system. So I start by pushing on the Menu
mode, then the Loading and finally the Splash. So the Splash gets
shown, then the loading runs and then the menu.

Hi.
My situation:
I've a lot of initialization code in my main activity's onCreate().
When I launch my game, the screen goes black for a long time, then my
game appears.
I did logged some message at the start and end of onCreate() and found
that onCreate() is executing its code while the screen is black.
OK, here's the problem:
Sometimes the screen goes black for too long and phone shows a popup
dialog prompting me to choose between Force close/Wait. Then when
onCreate() is completed, my game appears. Choosing 'Wait' then dismiss
the dialog.
How to solve this?
I tried using progress dialog described in this article
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/dialogs.html#ProgressDialog
But it doesn't work. The screen goes black for the same amount of time
even after I use the progress dialog.
Thank you in advance!
