I am developing the application to receive some data from the internet while receiving the data I want to show the "Progress Dialog". I used "AsyncTask" in my application.

The question is how to use it and how to show the percentage like 100%?

Please suggest me and give me some example. Thank you and Sorry for my English.

To show the prgress dialog you can use the below code 

 ProgressDialog dialog = new ProgressDialog(MainActivity.this);
                dialog.setMessage("Your message..");
                dialog.show();

before you call the async task i.e. before new YourTask.execute().

and in the onPostExecute function of the asynctask You can use 

 dialog.dismiss();

to dismiss the dialog.
