Android: ProgressDialog.show() crashes with getApplicationContext

I am using Android version 2.1 with API Level 7. I faced with this (or similar) problem and solved by using this:

Dialog dialog = new Dialog(this);

instead of this:

Dialog dialog = new Dialog(getApplicationContext());

Hope this helps :)

For me worked changing

builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(getApplicationContext());

builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(ThisActivityClassName.this);

Weird thing is that the first one can be found in google tutorial and people get error on this..
