private boolean mShowDialog = false;
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data){
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
// remember that dialog should be shown
mShowDialog = true;
}
@Override
protected void onResumeFragments() {
super.onResumeFragments();
// play with fragments here
if (mShowDialog) {
mShowDialog = false;
// Show only if is necessary, otherwise FragmentManager will take care
if (getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentByTag(PROG_DIALOG_TAG) == null) {
new ProgressFragment().show(getSupportFragmentManager(), PROG_DIALOG_TAG);
}
}
}
I took a look at the source for FragmentActivity, and it looks like it's calling an internal fragment manager in order to resume fragments without losing state. I found a solution that's not listed here. I create a Handler, and start the dialog fragment in the Handler. So, editing your code a bit: onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { //other code final FragmentManager manager = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager(); Handler handler = new Handler(); handler.post(new Runnable() { public void run() { ProgressFragment progFragment = new ProgressFragment(); progFragment.show(manager, PROG_DIALOG_TAG); } }); // other code }
