Use for repeat:

 ... 
class YourTimeTask extends TimerTask {
   public void run() {
    ....
   }
}

...
new Timer().scheduleAtFixedRate(new YourTimerTask(), after, interval);
...

To keep it running continuously at an interval of 1 second, you need to call postDelayed as nested in your Run method again. See the example below:

seekView.postDelayed(new Runnable() {

  public void run() {
    Log.d("WWWW", "www");

    //calling postdelayed again
    seekView.postDelayed(this, 1000);       //added this line
  }
}, 1000);

doing so will keep it calling it self at an interval of 1 second.
