    }
}

how can i check resource image and change it

Answer 1

Use Handler instead of Timer

Handler handler = new Handler();

Runnable changeImage = new Runnable(){

    @Override
    public void run(){
        if(flag>1)
           handler.removeCallbacks(changeImage);
        else{
           iv.setImageResource(v[flag++]);
           handler.postDelayed(changeImage, 1000);
        }
    }

};

start the first time from oncreate()

public void onCreate(Bundle b){

    handler.postDelayed(changeImage, 1000);
}
