I have added few lines in your code and now its working fine with progress bar.

        getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_PROGRESS);
        setContentView(R.layout.main );
        // Makes Progress bar Visible
        getWindow().setFeatureInt( Window.FEATURE_PROGRESS, Window.PROGRESS_VISIBILITY_ON);

        webview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
        webview.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {
            public void onProgressChanged(WebView view, int progress)   
            {
                //Make the bar disappear after URL is loaded, and changes string to Loading...
                setTitle("Loading...");
                setProgress(progress * 100); //Make the bar disappear after URL is loaded
     
                // Return the app name after finish loading
                if(progress == 100)
                   setTitle(R.string.app_name);
                }
            });
        webview.setWebViewClient(new HelloWebViewClient());
        webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
        webview.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");
