Want to display number with 1sec delay

Wait 5 sec // then a delay of 1 sec
Wait 4 sec // display this in the same text view along with delay
Wait 3 sec // display this in the same text view along with delay
Wait 2 sec // display this in the same text view along with delay
Wait 1 sec // display this in the same text view along with delay

I want perform this action on a button click and it should work like a count down timer.

You can use this one

new CountDownTimer(30000, 1000) {

     public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished) {
         mTextField.setText("Wait: " + millisUntilFinished / 1000);
     }

     public void onFinish() {
         mTextField.setText("done!");
     }
  }.start();

This timer class can start at the time of button click and also you can adjust the total time and the tick interval
