Answer 1

You're scheduling 10 TimerTasks to execute after an hour, at the same time. So all 10 tasks are being executed after 1 hour, which makes it seem like 1 execute since all the Toast messages display at the same time. To schedule tasks at a fixed delay, with the first task starting in 1 hour, use this method:

Timer t = new Timer();
t.schedule(task, 3600000, 3600000);

This will execute until you call t.cancel().
