There is an activity which fetches xml data from the network, parses it and displays it in the UI. When the user clicks on any of the link or button on the screen I call startActivity with new Intent object of the same activity. I do this to have the activity on the history stack. Previously I just called setContentView of the activity without starting the activity again, but with this I cannot have the previous page in the history stack.
Now the problem is - each screen normally takes up to 20 seconds to fetch content, parse and display. when the startActivity is called the screen becomes black until the next UI is rendered. I wanted to keep the previous screen showing until the next page loads. Please tell me 1. Is there a way to do this? 2. Is it good to start the activity again for each page. If not how to have the previous page in the history stack so that I can use the Android's back button.
