Progress Dialog

import android.app.Activity;

import android.app.ProgressDialog;

import android.content.pm.ActivityInfo;

import android.os.Bundle;

public class ProgressDialogActivity extends Activity {

/** Called when the activity is first created. */

ProgressDialog pro;

@Override

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)

{

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_USER);

setContentView(R.layout.main);

pro=new ProgressDialog(this);

pro.setProgressStyle(ProgressDialog.STYLE_HORIZONTAL);

pro.setMax(300);

pro.setCancelable(true);

pro.setMessage("Loading data..");

pro.show();

Threadex t=new Threadex();

t.start(); //start thread

}//This is Oncreate method

class Threadex extends Thread

{

public void run()

{

for(int i=10;i<=pro.getMax();i=i+10)

{

pro.incrementProgressBy(10);

try

{

sleep(1000); //sleep for 1 seconds

}

catch(Exception e)

{

e.printStackTrace();

}

} //this is for loop ends

pro.dismiss();

} //this is end of Run

}//This is End of Threadex

} //This is End of Activity

Here Update the 10 distance continues Upto 300 distance because we have set 300 distance as max .

This is after the Dismiss the ProgressDialog

This is for ProgressDialog.STYLE_HORIZONTAL.

we can set Another Style ProgressDialog.STYLE_SPINNER but view is different

How to decompile Android application to get sourcecode

Hi Friends,
reverse engineering is everywhere. but reverse engineering is meant for  code review of  vulnerable application. so I hope you guys will not  use this reverse engineering  tricks to do any illegal things.
all android application are running  on Dalvik , which is a Virtual Machine having register-base  architecture and different from Java Virtual Machine by sun-microsystem (and now by oracle ) which is stack machine.
hence all android application is consist of Dalvik Executable (.dex).  hence to convert those  android application( *.apk) to source code we have to follow below steps

(Note : apk is packing of  .dex  file and other resources.)

step to decompile

1) convert  .dex file format to  .class file
2) convert  .class file format to  java code file

hence  to convert .dex file in to .class file ( and those compress .class files  are placed in .jar file)
one need to have .dex  to  .class file converter .(both are binary format)
you can download such  tool from below link.
