Have you tried calling Thread.join() on the subthread from the main thread?
when the main thread is done doing its job, just call thread.join and after
that call popup your notification.

Or, the best way.  Just set a variable in the main thread from the sub
thread.  have the main thread check that var to see if it should keep
running.
