I am fairly certain that your problem has nothing to do with message passing. The basic messaging idiom you are using works just fine and you can, in a few minute and a few lines of code, verify that messages are passed immediately, not in 60 seconds.
In particular, btw, the extra thread in your implementation is kind of pointless. The Handler can easily just reschedule itself each time it is called. That also makes it much easier to handle onPause and onResume... which, I assume, is something of concern to you. I know you didn't ask but, IMO, your code could use some serious reorganization. That sure would make it easier for me to find the problem... and it might even make it easier for you to find it. I believe that the actual "message passing" happens through the data member "m". You should be certain that it is being accessed from only one thread -- that the code in the case statement runs in the same thread as the Handler. G.
