Yes i have a indeterminate progressBar in the header, the spinner one, but 
im using broadcast to all the activities which have the spinner to show or 
hide it if there's a task running in the background.... :


        @Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
Logger.write("QuadrosMobileActivityTask ", " AsyncTask pre execution "+ 
"Current Activity: "+activity.getClass().getName(), Logger.INFO);

Intent broadcast = new Intent();
broadcast.setAction("SHOW_PROGRESSBAR");
mApp.sendBroadcast(broadcast);
mApp.setProgressBarInitialState(ProgressBar.VISIBLE);
} 

@Override
protected Object doInBackground(Void... params) {
 *do{*
* SystemClock.sleep(50); *
* }while(activity==null);*
*
*
* Logger.write("QuadrosMobileActivityTask ", " AsyncTask background 
initialized "+"Current Activity: "+activity.getClass().getName(), 
Logger.INFO);*
* return activity.doBackGroundRequest();//method implemented by all sub 
activities*
}


@Override
protected void onPostExecute(Object result) {

if(activity!=null){
Logger.write("QuadrosMobileActivityTask ", " AsyncTask post execution 
"+"Current Activity: "+activity.getClass().getName(), Logger.INFO);
 //update results
activity.updateResultsInUi(result);
 mApp.getAsyncTasks().remove(this); 

//check if there's more tasks in the collection
if(mApp.getAsyncTasks().isEmpty()){
Intent broadcast = new Intent();
        broadcast.setAction("HIDE_PROGRESSBAR");
        mApp.sendBroadcast(broadcast);
        mApp.setProgressBarInitialState(ProgressBar.GONE);
 }
}
 }

the bold text is the one that gives problems.....but in the pre and post 
there's no problem having the activity reference...
