I want to draw an spinning wheel on the title bar of the activity when another activity is loading in background. But I don't know how to do that. Please Help me regarding that. Listen I don't want Progress Bar, I want some thing like progress bar on the title bar of the screen, which is running till another activity is loaded or not?...........
I believe the only way to do it is to use your own custom title bar. The best thing to do is to make a title bar layout and just it in all the other layouts and maybe have a helper class to show and hide the progress bar.

Chrome has a very thin progress bar that runs while a url in loading. Does webview have anything like that as default i can turn it on instead of making my own progress bar ?
similar to what is asked in this question: ProgressBar under Action Bar
But i need the progress bar for a webViewfragment not an activity.

No.
similar to what is asked in this question: ProgressBar under Action Bar But i need the progress bar for a webViewfragment not an activity.
That answer has nothing much to do with an activity. It is referencing the indefinite progress bar offered by the action bar. If you are using the action bar in your app, and your WebViewFragment extends all the way up to the action bar, you are probably best served using the action bar's indefinite progress bar.
If, however, your WebViewFragment is far removed from the action bar, and you want your progress indicator to be closer to the fragment, you will need to use your own ProgressBar widget.
I am using an Action bar in my project. I am displaying a progress bar via the below approach.
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_INDETERMINATE_PROGRESS);
setProgressBarIndeterminateVisibility(true);
However, what I'd really like to do is replace the left most image icon with the progress indicator when arbitrary background processes run and then returns the usual icon when complete.
Can anyone tell me the steps needed to replace this icon with a functional Progress indicator. It only needs to be an intermediate one.
Looks like you can find some suggestions here: Android: dynamically change ActionBar icon?.
Specifically, you can access the icon by using
Activity.findViewById(android.R.id.home)
And then just set and re-set the icon as needed.
You need to build a custom layout for this and use actionbar.setCustomView(yourcustomlayout);
In your custom layout have an imageView(which is your app icon) and progress bar(initially which is set to invisible).
When running the background process just set the visibility between image view and progress bar.
Is there a way to show, only while loading, a webview's progress bar, at the bottom of the app ?
Currently, my progress bar is showed in the title bar. But I don't want it there. I want it at the botton of the app.
Is there a way to do it ?
Thanks!
A solution is to hide the title bar (not necessary but it will save screen space), and add your own progress bar at the bottom of your layout.
But it goes against the normal user interface standards and could be confusing to users so I wouldn't recommend to change the progress bar location.
