Answer 1

You need to use Holo Light Dialog theme:

<activity
    android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.Dialog"
    android:name="com.example.dialog"
    android:label="@string/title_activity_list" />

This also have worked for me. I have my app theme applied for the dialog activity.

<style name="Theme.UserDialog" parent="@style/MyAppTheme">
    <item name="android:windowFrame">@null</item>
    <item name="android:windowIsFloating">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowIsTranslucent">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>

Way around is to define custom theme into style xml, check below code:-

Style:

<style name="Theme.D1NoTitleDim" parent="android:style/Theme.Translucent">
<item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
<item name="android:windowContentOverlay">@null</item>
<item name="android:backgroundDimEnabled">true</item>
<item name="android:background">#22000000</item>
</style>

manifest:

<activity
   android:theme="@style/Theme.D1NoTitleDim"
    android:name="com.example.dialog"
    android:label="@string/title_activity_list" 
    >
</activity>
