Android facebook-android-sdk:4.0.0, how can I remove the login progress bar?

Question

While using the loginWithReadPermissions method of the latest Facebook SDK for Android, a large progress bar is displayed while Facebook waits to either open the app or webview. Is there anyway to stop this progress bar from showing? It is not aesthetically pleasing.

I am using:

LoginManager.getInstance().logInWithReadPermissions(
    this,
    Arrays.asList(getResources().getString(R.string.app_facebook_scope_email))
);

Answer 1

Change the com.facebook.FacebookActivity entry in your manifest so that it contains:

android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoDisplay"

instead of

android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar"

This worked for me.
