Remarks

Control whether this activity's main window is visible. This is intended only for the special case of an activity that is not going to show a UI itself, but can't just finish prior to onResume() because it needs to wait for a service binding or such. Setting this to false allows you to prevent your UI from being shown during that time.

The default value for this is taken from the android.R.attr#windowNoDisplay attribute of the activity's theme.
