Dialog does not appear

Question

I use following code:

public class Settings extends Activity implements OnClickListener {

    private Activity activity;
    private AlertDialog.Builder bui         


        

Answer 1

I had a somehow similar problem, in my case the dialog would appear and disappear in milliseconds: To solve it, don't call finish() or finishActivity() in the same method that calls your dialog.

createNewDialog(SOME_CONSTANT).show();
finish();

this destroys your dialog even before you access it.
