Answer 1

Try out as below :

 AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
 builder.setMessage("Are you sure you want to exit?")
  .setCancelable(false)
   .setPositiveButton(android.R.string.yes, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
   public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
        MyActivity.this.finish();
   }
 })
 .setNegativeButton(android.R.string.no, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
   public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
        dialog.cancel();
   }
});
AlertDialog alert = builder.create();

For the Home Key event :

No, it is not possible to get the Home key event in android. From the documentation of the Home keycode: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/KeyEvent.html#KEYCODE_HOME

public static final int KEYCODE_HOME

Key code constant: Home key. This key is handled by the framework and is never delivered to applications.

Answer 2

Use can use setCancellable(false); setCanceledOnTouchOutside(false); for the dialog itself, that should stop that dialog from closing by BACK and by tapping outside the dialog.

You can't override the HOME button.

Try this::

You need to create layout that you want to show in popup. you can create layout XML and use it like this:

LayoutInflater layoutInflater = (LayoutInflater)getBaseContext().getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);  
            View layout = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.new_popup_layout, null);  
            final PopupWindow popupWindow = new PopupWindow(
                    layout, 
                       LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,  
                             LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);

You can also provide click events of button like this:

ImageButton btnChoose = (ImageButton) layout.findViewById(R.id.btnChoose);
            btnChoose.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener()  {

                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) {
}
});

and show this popup like this: here you want to show this on button click then button view will be there.

 popupWindow.showAtLocation(anyview,Gravity.CENTER, 0, 0);

There are many kind of Dialogs in Android. Please take a look at Dialogs. I guess what you are looking for is something like AlertDialog . This is the example of how you can implement on BackPress button.

@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
    AlertDialog.Builder alert = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
    alert.setTitle("Do you want to logout?");
    // alert.setMessage("Message");

    alert.setPositiveButton("Ok", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) {
            //Your action here
        }
    });

    alert.setNegativeButton("Cancel",
        new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) {
            }
        });

    alert.show();

}
