Below is the simple code for creating splash screen using CountDownTimer class

public class SplashDialogActivity extends Activity {
@Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // Be sure to call the super class.
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
        setContentView(R.layout.layout);
      counter.start();
    }
    MyCount counter = new MyCount(5000, 1000);
 public class MyCount extends CountDownTimer{
            public MyCount(long millisInFuture, long countDownInterval) {
            super(millisInFuture, countDownInterval);
            }

            @Override
            public void onFinish() {
                go_back();
            }

            @Override
            public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished) {



              }
     }

 public void go_back()
        {
          counter.cancel();

                    Intent i=new Intent(this,account.class);
                    i.putExtra("first_time", true);
                    startActivity(i);

            this.finish();
        }
}
