My appliation do the following:
Start a alarm
after 10 second
open a Activity (ThemeDialog)
The output is as follows
I would like to do the following:
Just show the dialog without showing the main activity
But the current situation is that the main activity is opened when I open my dialog activity.
How to hide it (when the alarm timesup, i just want to display a dialog)? Just like the following screen shot:

You just also finish activity and than open new activity. New Activity' s style to android:theme="#style/Theme.Translucent" in your manifest file. And than set a view maybe empty textview, open dialog.
you can acheive this by using custom dialog
.in this give background color to black it will hide back activity
or you can acheive this by launching activity as dialog
Start activity as dialog i used this
<activity android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Dialog" />
now when i startActivity(in) it displays like dialog.
instead of showing dialog in activity you can directly use dialog theme in manifest file for activity.and use that activity as a dialog box.

<activity android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Dialog" />

create an layout as you like to have as a dialogue and create an activity using that layout.
in the manifest declare that activity and add android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Dialog in that activity stub.
