I gave up nio because it introduces a number of platform specific 
troubles. 'Troubles' being both OS and JVM impl dependent.
You may get OOM with bogus description.
IBM JVM gives more precise OOM explanation, like was it ENOMEM or 
ENOBUFS, which gives you more info on how to tune OS.

Furthermore, there's just a few nio methods that actually utilize proper 
OS functions in order to avoid unnecessary transfer between kernel mem 
and userspace mem.
IIRC, with sun jvm on linux, I've found exactly one nio method that 
actually does the job. And apache mina did not use it:> So neither did 
software using it, many many server software.
(netty does though)

I have no idea how android nio works.

But as the man said, nio is not faster than io - it all depends on other 
threads and their synchronization.
In your case, setProgress() is blocking and synchronized.
Blocking = transfer waits for bar to render.
Synchronized = slow.

Recommendiation:
Make a thread to update progress bar(s). Let it have non-blocking calls 
to update volatile/atomic internal counter(s). Use these calls instead 
of setProgress(). Make it sleep for 100-1000 ms, then render bar(s).
