This is my method for displaying a modal dialog:

public static Dialog handleInactivityDialog(String msg, int[] values) {
     Dialog dialogo = new Dialog(msg, new String[] {"Yes", "No"}, values, 2, null);
     int i = dialogo.doModal();
     if (i == 1){
         try{
               //do something
               Utils.popScreenForLogout();
          }catch(Exception e){
               Utils.forceLogout();
          }
      }
      return dialogo;

}

After 3 minutes, that dialog must be closed and a new one should be opened. The new dialog should be closed after 1 minute.

I have no idea on how to do this since DIalog.doModal() is a blocking operation.

Thanks in advance!

you can start a timertask before you call doModal, for example.

Thanks Simon, I have read this answer:

but I don't know how to adapt my code to that suggestion.

public static void handleInactivityDialog(String msg, int[] values) {
         final Dialog dialogo = new Dialog(msg, new String[] {"Sí", "No"}, values, 2, null);
         Timer timer = new Timer();
         timer.schedule(new TimerTask(){

         public void run()
         {    
               synchronized (UiApplication.getEventLock()) {
                      int i = dialogo.doModal();
                      if (i == 1){
                            try{
                                   //do something
                                   Utils.popScreenForLogout();
                            }catch(Exception e){
                            Utils.forceLogout();
                            }
                      }
               }
          }

           }, 60*1000);

}

In case this is fine, where should I add the dialog.close() ?

the timertask would have the purpose the close the dialog, not to display it.

Ok, thanks Simon. This way works:

public static void handleInactivityDialog(String msg, int[] values) {
       final Dialog dialogo = new Dialog(msg, new String[] {"Sí", "No"}, values, 2, null);
       Timer timer = new Timer();
       timer.schedule(new TimerTask(){

                public void run()
                {
                   synchronized (UiApplication.getEventLock()) {
                               dialogo.close();
                   }

               }

      }, 60*1000);
     int i = dialogo.doModal();
     if (i == 1){
        try{
             CommManager.doLogout();
             Utils.popScreenForLogout();
         }catch(Exception e){
            Utils.forceLogout();
         }
     }  

}
