                    InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) activity
                            .getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);

Answer 1

Your window params is the problem Okay u should do like this:..

    Dialog dialog = new Dialog(DialogTestKeyboard.this);
    dialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
    WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = new WindowManager.LayoutParams();
    lp.copyFrom(dialog.getWindow().getAttributes());
    lp.width  = 400;
    lp.height = 800;
    dialog.setContentView(yourLayoutHavingEditText);
    dialog.setCancelable(false);
    dialog.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawableResource(android.R.color.transparent);
    dialog.show();
    dialog.getWindow().setAttributes(lp);
    dialog.getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_VISIBLE);
