MainActivity.java:
You don't need to change anything in MainActivity.


Splash.java:

package com.example.shoaibm.splashscreen;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.animation.Animation;
import android.view.animation.AnimationUtils;
import android.widget.ImageView;

import java.util.logging.Handler;


public class Splash extends Activity {


    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash);
        Thread background = new Thread() {
            public void run() {
                try {
                    sleep(3*1000);
                    Intent i=new Intent(getBaseContext(),MainActivity.class);
                    startActivity(i);
                    finish();

                } catch (Exception e) {

                }
            }
        };
        background.start();

    }
}

Layout/activity_splash:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    tools:context="com.example.shoaibm.splashscreen.Splash">

    <RelativeLayout
        android:id="@+id/loadingPanel"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:gravity="center" >

        <ProgressBar
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:indeterminate="true"
            android:id="@+id/progressBar"
            android:layout_centerVertical="true"
            android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
            android:text="Loading..."
            android:id="@+id/textView"
            android:layout_below="@+id/progressBar"
            android:layout_alignLeft="@+id/progressBar"
            android:layout_alignStart="@+id/progressBar"
            android:layout_marginTop="32dp" />
    </RelativeLayout>

</RelativeLayout>
