how to update Ui from background task

Issue

My app is not working on android version 4.1 gives exception like android.os.NetworkOnMainThreadException

i have search on stackoverflow advice me to do network thread in background AsyncTask so before use backgroundtask, My screen look like this https://i.stack.imgur.com/PZxPR.jpg show multiple rows in nutrition's and ingredient tags after using backgroundtask my screen look like this https://i.stack.imgur.com/91qhg.jpg show only single row in ingredients and nutrition tags

before background task code is this see below

public class fifthscreen extends Activity {
String num = null;
TextView ingredient;

long Menu_ID;
String dish_name;

String status;

HorizontalListView listview;
CategoryListAdapter3 cla;

TextView txt1, txt2, txt3;

    txt1 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.menuname);
    txt3 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.description);

    Intent iGet = getIntent();

    ImageView options = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.options5);

Please Help

Thanks in Advance...:)

Solution

You can use **runOnUiThread()** like this:

try {
   // code runs in a thread
   runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
       @Override
       public void run() {

         // YOUR CODE

       }
  });
} catch (final Exception ex) {
     Log.i("---","Exception in thread");
}
