Answer 1

You can use a CountDownTimer instead of the Timer :

Timer timer = new CountDownTimer(Long.MAX_VALUE, 1000) {
    public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished) {
        // the code in the method run
    }

    public void onFinish() {

    }
};

The methods onTick and onFinish will be called in the UI thread.

To make the timer start performing its action, run: timer.start()
