Answer 1

Use a custom style for your AlertDialog.

Add the following style to your style.xml.

<style name="MyCustomTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.Dialog.Alert">>
        <item name="android:layout_width">fill_parent</item>
        <item name="android:layout_height">fill_parent</item>
        <item name="android:windowBackground">@null</item>
        <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
        <item name="android:windowIsFloating">false</item>     
</style>

Set the theme to your AlertDialog in the activity:

final AlertDialog.Builder builder =
            new AlertDialog.Builder(this, R.style.MyCustomTheme);

There are server ways:-

1. Alert Dialog

    AlertDialog.Builder builder; if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) { builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(activityContext, android.R.style.Theme_Material_Light_Dialog_NoActionBar); // To remove extra space } else { builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(activityContext); } builder.setTitle(dialogTitle); builder.setButton(AlertDialog.BUTTON_NEUTRAL, "OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) { dialog.dismiss(); // Close dialog } }); builder.setCancelable(false); //to make Dialog's outside non-touchable builder.show(); // to show dialog 

2. Custom Dialog

   Make Custom Design in style.xml file and you can add more values according to your requirement.

    <style name="CustomDesign" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.Dialog.Alert">> <item name="android:layout_width">wrap_content</item> <item name="android:layout_height">wrap_content</item> <item name="android:windowBackground">@null</item> <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item> </style> 

   Give this style to Alert Dialog or any dialog.

   For Alert Dialog :-

    AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this, R.style.CustomDesign); 

   For Dialog :-

    Dialog customDialog= new Dialog(this,R.style.CustomDesign); 

3. Dialog

    Dialog dialog = new Dialog(context); dialog.getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE); // To remove extra space dialog.setContentView(R.layout.layout); // to set custom layout dialog.show();
