This is how I handle this in my code:

if( Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB ) {

    new MyAsyncTask().execute();
}

And replace MyAsyncTask with yours Task1 and Task2 respectively. Basically change in AsyncTask appeared in Honeycomb (see Android SDK docs here in "Order of execution" section), so before that, you launch it as usual, for HC and up, use executeOnExecutor() if you do not like new behaviour (noone does, I think)
