ProgressDialog is deprecated

Since the ProgressDialog is deprecated from the Android version O, I'm still finding a better way out to do my task. The task is to move from my activity to the fragment. Everything is working fine but the progressdialog is not visible. I've tried implementing it but... the progressdialog doesn't work.

It seems the progressbar would work but still not working. I need a progressdialog because it is simply easy for me to set my title and the message. I need a spinner progressDialog but don't know how to do it. Here is one of my work but not implementing :

Java Class

ublic class SaveVideo extends AppCompatActivity {

private Button button;

private ProgressDialog mProgressDialog;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_save_video);

    mProgressDialog = new ProgressDialog(this);

    getSupportActionBar().setHomeAsUpIndicator(R.drawable.back);
    getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
    getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(true);
    getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);

    button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.saveVideo);

    button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {

            //where it must be seen when the button is pressed
            mProgressDialog.setTitle("Title");
            mProgressDialog.setMessage("Message");
            mProgressDialog.show();

            Intent intent = new Intent(SaveVideo.this,MainActivity.class);
            intent.putExtra("change",2);
            startActivity(intent);

            //as soon as the page moves from this to another fragment
            mProgressDialog.dismiss();
        }
    });


}

I'm new to Android Version O. Any help would give me new thing to learn!

ProgressBar is very simple and easy to use, first step is that you can make xml layout of the dialog that you want to show, let say we name this layout

layout_loading_dialog.xml

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    android:padding="20dp">
    <ProgressBar
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight="1" />

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_weight="4"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:text="Please wait! This may take a moment." />
</LinearLayout>

next step is create AlertDialog which will show this layout with ProgressBar

AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(context);
builder.setCancelable(false); // if you want user to wait for some process to finish,
builder.setView(R.layout.layout_loading_dialog);
AlertDialog dialog = builder.create();

now all that is left is to show and hide this dialog in our click events like this

progress_dialog.show(); // to show this dialog
progress_dialog.dismiss(); // to hide this dialog

and thats it, it should work, as you can see it is farely simple and easy to implement ProgressBar (like ProgressDialog) instead of deprecated ProgressDialog. now you can show/dismiss this dialog box in either Handler or ASyncTask, its up to your need, hope you can use this to solve your problems, cheers
