How to Pass Execution to the Main Thread in Android: With and Without a Context?
Passing Execution to the Main Thread in Multithreading Environments
In multithreaded programming, particularly within Android services, situations may arise where background threads need to interact with the main thread. A common requirement is to post tasks, such as Runnables, on the main thread's message queue.
Solution with Context Reference
If the background thread has access to a Context object, either the Application or Service context can be utilized to obtain a Handler for the main thread:
Handler mainHandler = new Handler(context.getMainLooper()); Runnable myRunnable = new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { // Code to execute on the main thread } }; mainHandler.post(myRunnable);
Solution Without Context Reference
In cases where the background thread does not have a Context reference, an alternative approach suggested by @dzeikei can be used:
Handler mainHandler = new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper()); Runnable myRunnable = new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { // Code to execute on the main thread } }; mainHandler.post(myRunnable);

Supports almost all languages, including RTL (Arabic and Hebrew) and CJK (Chinese, Japanese and Korean). Supports nested block-level elements (such as P, DIV),
