I cant figure out why i cant set text to my textView tv. getting:
E/AndroidRuntime(686): android.view.ViewRoot$CalledFromWrongThreadException:
Only the original thread that created a view hierarchy can touch its views.
I tried many ways to make it right. As you can see i tried Handler because i had the same problem with toasts. Now toast works but setText doesnt :(( Please someone help me, how should i configure this handler?
