Answer 1

I have made some methods to do the same, got refrence from one of the SO answer but not remembering that right now, below is the code i am using :

Timer timer;
int page = 0;

public void pageSwitcher(int seconds) {
    timer = new Timer(); // At this line a new Thread will be created
    timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(new RemindTask(), 0, seconds * 1000); // delay
    // in
    // milliseconds
}

// this is an inner class...
class RemindTask extends TimerTask {

    @Override
    public void run() {

        // As the TimerTask run on a seprate thread from UI thread we have
        // to call runOnUiThread to do work on UI thread.
        runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {

                if (page > 5) { // In my case the number of pages are 5
                    page = 0;
                } else {
                    viewPager.setCurrentItem(page);
                    page++;
                }
            }
        });

    }
}

and in onCreate() i call this method like this

 pageSwitcher(3); // Here "3" is delay in seconds
