Question

final Handler handler = new Handler();
LOG.d(\"delay\");
handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
    @Override public void run() {
        LOG.d(\"notify!\");
        /

Convert

final Handler handler = new Handler();

to

final Handler handler = new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper());

This worked for me.
