Hi, I have a problem with my dialog box. Long story short, this dialog box will pop-up at a certain time even at the home screen (so it will come out even the application is closed). Here's the code for the dialog box:

synchronized(UiApplication.getEventLock()){
UiEngine ui = Ui.getUiEngine();
Dialog dial = new Dialog(Dialog.D_YES_NO, "Open detik.com feeds?",
Dialog.YES,
Bitmap.getPredefinedBitmap(Bitmap.QUESTION),
Manager.VERTICAL_SCROLL);
ui.pushGlobalScreen(dial, 1, UiEngine.GLOBAL_QUEUE);

int response = ((Dialog)dial).getSelectedValue();
if (response == Dialog.YES) {
feeds();
}
}
}

Now, I want the application to push a new screen whenever "Yes" is selected. But it doesn't work. Can anyone help me?

currently you push the dialog as a queued object, and immediately ask it for it's status. you would need a very fast user for that

push the screen with http://www.blackberry.com/developers/docs/7.1.0api/net/rim/device/api/ui/UiEngine.html#GLOBAL_MODAL to let it block the code, you can get the result when it returns.

Great it works! Thanks Simon!

Simon, it works but the dialog box won't come out anymore unless the application is in the foreground...

EDIT: It comes out. I was trying doModal() and forgot to remove it. The thing that doesn't come out is the new screen.

now that is a different issue, i would suggest to leave this thread as solved and just create a new one.
