            mHandler.removeCallbacks(hMyTimeTask);
            //        Parameters
            //        r  The Runnable that will be executed.
            //        delayMillis  The delay (in milliseconds) until the Runnable will be executed.
            mHandler.postDelayed(hMyTimeTask, 1000); // delay 1 second
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
};


private Runnable hMyTimeTask = new Runnable() {
    public void run() {
        nCounter++;
        hTextView.setText("Hallo from thread counter: " + nCounter);
    }
};
/**

View.OnClickListener mButtonStopListener = new View.OnClickListener() {

        mHandler.removeCallbacks(hMyTimeTask);
