Use a determinate progress bar as documented here<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ProgressBar.html> .
Or, if you're looking for a progress dialog (which has a progress bar in it), then use a progress dialog, as documented here<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/ProgressDialog.html> . In fact, there's even an API demo of the progress bars located here<http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/view/ProgressBar1.html>, here<http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/view/ProgressBar3.html>, and here<http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/view/ProgressBar4.html>. The documentation on developer.android.com is actually very good. You should check it out.
