Android setText in asynctask

问题:

I'm working on a UDP program but I'm having trouble with applying setText in my asynctask. Basically on the UDP server, I just ask to input a port and then the server should connect to the localhost and the port. A TextView in the middle of the layout says "Currently not connected" and when I click connect to a port, I want it to change to "Connected." However, it is not doing anything. I tried searching around but was unable to come up with a solution. If anyone can help me figure out the problem that would be greatly appreciated.

My Thread asynctask code: EDIT: took setText out of doinbackground. However, setText still is not functional.

public class ServerThread extends AsyncTask<String, String, String>{
    TextView chatbox;
    TextView amiconnected;

    @Override
    protected void onPreExecute(){
        chatbox = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView2);
        amiconnected = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView3);
        PORT = Integer.parseInt(((EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText1)).getText().toString());
    }
    @Override
    protected String doInBackground(String... arg0) {

        //open socket at specified port on the local host
        try {
            socket = new DatagramSocket(PORT);
            //listening

            byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
            DatagramPacket packet = new DatagramPacket(buf, buf.length);
            socket.receive(packet);
            text2 = new String("Now you're connected.");
            //convert received message to string
            text1 = new String(buf, 0, packet.getLength());

            //get client address from received packet
            //client_addr = packet.getAddress();
            //byte[] message = new byte[1024];

        } catch (Exception e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        return text2;
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPostExecute(String text2) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        super.onPostExecute(text2);
        chatbox.setText(text2);

    }

                text1 = new String(buf, 0, packet.getLength());

                //get client address from received packet

            super.onPostExecute(text2);
            chatbox.setText(text2);

        }   

    }

You need to move your UI actions to the onPreExecute() or the onPostExecute() methods as doInBackground cannot touch the UI. I would suggest you return the string or value you need to put in the TextView from the doInBackground method and then apply it to the TextView in the onPostExecute() method. Reference AsyncTask Description
