title: How to set an image with a delay
body: <p>I have an "Activity" with three images. When one image is clicked, all the images are to switch to another picture. Is there a way to make the switches such that there is a 2 second delay before the images actually change (i.e. a 2 second delay in every 'for loop' below)? I am trying to do this with a timer but it does not actually to the delay when I run my program:</p>
  
  <pre><code>protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  image1.setOnClickListener(this);
  
  @Override
  public void onClick(View arg0) 
  {
  do_switches();
  }
  
  private void do_switches() 
  {
  //loop through all images and change them
  for(int j=1 ;j&lt;=3; j++)
  {           
  
  
   final int curr2=current;
   final Handler handler = new Handler(); 
   Timer t = new Timer(); 
   t.schedule(new TimerTask() { 
         public void run() { 
          handler.post(new Runnable() { 
                 public void run() { 
  
          switch(curr2){
  
          case 1:
  
              image1.setImageResource(ImageArray[1]);
                      break;
  
          case 2:
  
              image2.setImageResource(ImageArray[2]);
                               break;
  
          case 3:
              image3.setImageResource(ImageArray[3]);
                          break;
  
          }
              } 
          }); 
      } 
   }, 2000); 
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>}</p>
  
  <p>I have also tried using just SystemClock.sleep(2000) instead of the timer but I that didnt work either.I also tried setting up a Thread with a try/catch with no luck or maybe I didn't implement it properly. Is there a way to put this delay on every iteration of my for loop? 
  Thanks</p>
