How are you accessing pd in onPageFinshed()? (And are you sure it's actually called when the page loads?)

In your onCreate(), try passing pd to your homeClient so that homeClient can take care of dismissing the dialog.

Your homeClient should look like this:

private class homeClient extends WebViewClient {

    private ProgressDialog pd;

    public homeClient(ProgressDialog pd) {
        this.pd = pd;
    }

    @Override 
    public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {           
        view.loadUrl(url); 
        return true; 
    } 

    @Override
    public void onPageFinished (WebView view, String url) {
        if (pd.isShowing()) {
            pd.dismiss();
        }
    }
}

In your onCreate():

ProgressDialog pd = ProgressDialog.show(Fbook.this, "", 
                "Loading. Please wait...", true);
webview.setWebViewClient(new homeClient(pd));
