AlertDialog.Builder create does not return

Because of my frustration that there was no clear error message (no exception or whatever), I want to prevent people having the same problem.

Here's the problem:

AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(MyActivity);
...
AlertDialog dialog = builder.create(); // <-- does not return!
dialog.show();  // <-- never gets hit

The reason why it never returns, is because it is not being run from the UI thread.

Check if you are running this on the UI thread adding this:

boolean uithread = Looper.myLooper() == Looper.getMainLooper();
