Answer 1

public class YourActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    private static boolean handlerflag=false;
    private Handler handler;
    private Runnable runnable;
    private int myind=0,index=0,count=0;

    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.your_activtiy);         
        //oncreate exe only
        handlerflag=true;
        handler = new Handler();
        startyourtime(0);
 }
  private void  startyourtime(int a) {

    myind=0;
    for (index=a; index<10 ;index++) {
            myind++;
            runnable=new Runnable() {
                count++;
                @Override
                public void run() {
                          //your code here
               }
            };handler.postDelayed(runnable, Constants.TIME_LIMIT * myind);

   }
    @Override
    protected void onPause() {
        super.onPause();
        handlerflag=false;
        handler.removeCallbacksAndMessages(null);
    }
    @Override
    protected void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        if(!handlerflag)
        {
           startyourtime(count);

        }
    }
}
