This might help

Log.i(LOG_TAG, "shutting down executor...");
executor.shutdown();
while (true) {
                try {
                    Log.i(LOG_TAG, "Waiting for executor to terminate...");
                    if (executor.isTerminated())
                        break;
                    if (executor.awaitTermination(5000, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS)) {
                        break;
                    }
                } catch (InterruptedException ignored) {}
            }
