How do you display a Toast from a background thread on Android?

Question

How can I display Toast messages from a thread?

Answer 1

I made this approach based on mjaggard answer:

public static void toastAnywhere(final String text) {
    Handler handler = new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper());
    handler.post(new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            Toast.makeText(SuperApplication.getInstance().getApplicationContext(), text, 
                    Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        }
    });
}

Worked well for me.
