I am trying to avoid repeated touches, but want a sensitive screen. Using the method advised in this answer: Android Preventing Double Click On A Button I have been re-enabling buttons within the program flow, but there are some instances where, I cannot rely on program flow and need to ensure the button is enabled. I have devised a way to re-enable these button using a countdowntimer and shown in my code: button.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() { @Override public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) { disableButton(button); countDwn(); // Do something return false; } });

The GrepCode of count down timer shows that it uses a Handler. Is there any specific reason for using handlers? Because handlers are generally used when we are doing some user interaction using threads. But here there are no threads that I can see in Countdown Timer. And also Countdown Timer works when used in the UI thread it self. Because handlers are generally used when we are doing some user interaction using threads True. However, "generally" != "always". It so happens that Handler has useful methods for timing purposes, like postDelayed() and sendMessageDelayed() , which CountDownTimer

But how to make a count down View , almost exactly the same as Chronometer but with the difference that it will be counting down instead of up? I tried to copy the source of Chronometer class and modify it so it will fit my needs, but there are annotations like @android.view.RemotableViewMethod , which i can not import to my project. Unfortunately, without annotations it is not working, because RemoteViews is using them to pass values. My second idea was to

I'm trying to use a timer to count down from a specified time I choose with the time being separated into minutes and seconds using the format MM:SS and then stop when the time reaches 00:00 . So far I've used a previous answer that was found on here and modified it to the best of my knowledge with counting down although I've hit a snag in which when the timer successfully starts counting down, it's delayed and out of sync when counting down the minutes. For example, counting down from 120 seconds; 02:00 > 02:59 > 02:58 > 02:57 > 02:56 > 02:55 And then when continuing to count down past 90
