How to show a splash screen for 3 seconds on Android?
<p>I would like the splash image to begin and stay for 3 seconds, and then disappear and continue or be replaced with the rest of the layout in the main.xml.</p>

<p>This is my code:</p>

<p>Main.java</p>

<pre><code>public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    ImageView splash = (ImageView) this.findViewById(R.id.splash);
</code></pre>

<p>main.xml</p>

<pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>
 
 
</p>

<pre><code> &lt;ImageView
android:id="@+id/splash"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:src="@drawable/splash2"/&gt; 

&lt;ImageView
android:id="@+id/myImageView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="@drawable/bg_main"/&gt; 

&lt;ImageView
android:id="@+id/myImageView0"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="@drawable/bar_top"/&gt; 

&lt;!-- 
&lt;TextView android:id="@+id/textItem"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:paddingTop="10dp"
android:paddingLeft="110dp"
android:background="#00000000"
android:textColor="#ffffffff"
android:textSize="22sp" 
android:text="Find Car"
android:enabled="false"  
&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>--></p>

<pre><code> &lt;TabHost android:id="@android:id/tabhost"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"&gt;
&lt;RelativeLayout
   android:orientation="vertical"
   android:layout_width="fill_parent"
   android:layout_height="fill_parent"
   android:padding="3dp"&gt;
   &lt;FrameLayout
       android:id="@android:id/tabcontent"
       android:layout_width="fill_parent"
       android:layout_height="fill_parent"
       android:layout_weight="1" /&gt;
   &lt;TabWidget
       android:id="@android:id/tabs"
       android:layout_width="fill_parent"
       android:layout_height="wrap_content"
       android:layout_alignBottom = "@android:id/tabcontent"
       /&gt;
&lt;/RelativeLayout&gt;
</code></pre>
