Hi Kristopher and Miguel, Thank you for your posts. I am not using OpenGL for this particular application. I am not sure what is taking long but I think it's some Config.ARGB8888 bitmaps I am loading which are taking long, I can't see what else. So Kristopher you say start an activity that displays a spinner and then start the real activity from there. Or Miguel, you say place alayout on top of the surface view, but isn't the surface view what is taking a long time to load?
