Put the Default.png splash screen in, and that will show up immediately, and will stay there while the main app loads.

Hi,

isnt that only for iOS and not for Android? if not where exactly do you put that?

"Default.png" is iOS only and supported by Flash CS  5.5 authoring tools

note: Android SDK has no "splash" image feature at all as of 3.1 API version. One could build custom "preloading" view to be shown on screen on application startup. There is similar concept in sparks mobile SplashScreen I think, see:
