How do I listen for

I have simplified NeTeInStEiN's code to be like this:

mWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
        private int       webViewPreviousState;
        private final int PAGE_STARTED    = 0x1;
        private final int PAGE_REDIRECTED = 0x2;

        @Override
        public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String urlNewString) {
            webViewPreviousState = PAGE_REDIRECTED;
            mWebView.loadUrl(urlNewString);
            return true;
        }

        @Override
        public void onPageStarted(WebView view, String url, Bitmap favicon) {
            super.onPageStarted(view, url, favicon);
            webViewPreviousState = PAGE_STARTED;
            if (dialog == null || !dialog.isShowing())
                dialog = ProgressDialog.show(WebViewActivity.this, "", getString(R.string.loadingMessege), true, true,
                        new OnCancelListener() {

                            @Override
                            public void onCancel(DialogInterface dialog) {
                                // do something
                            }
                        });
        }

        @Override
        public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {

            if (webViewPreviousState == PAGE_STARTED) {
                dialog.dismiss();
                dialog = null;
            }

        }
 });

It is easy to understand, OnPageFinished if the previous callback is on onPageStarted, so the page is completely loaded.
