This example demonstrates how to implement a custom AlertDialog View in Android.
Step 1 − Create a new project in Android Studio, go to File ⇒ New Project and fill all required details to create a new project.
Step 2 − Add the following code to res/layout/activity_main.xml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" tools:context=".MainActivity"> <Button android:id="@+id/buttonShowDialog" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_centerInParent="true" android:background="@color/colorPrimary" android:padding="15dp" android:text="Android Custom Dialog Example" android:textAllCaps="false" android:textColor="#ffffff" /> </androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
Step 3 − Add the following code to res/layout/my_dialog.xml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent"> <RelativeLayout android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="80dp" android:background="@color/colorPrimary"> <ImageView android:layout_width="50dp" android:layout_height="50dp" android:layout_centerInParent="true" android:background="@drawable/ic_success" /> </RelativeLayout> <TextView android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Success" android:textAlignment="center" android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Headline"/> <TextView android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginTop="10dp" android:text="Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla eu erat tincidunt lacus fermentum rutrum." android:textAlignment="center" android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Medium"/> <Button android:id="@+id/buttonOk" android:layout_width="200dp" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center" android:layout_marginTop="15dp" android:background="@drawable/button_background" android:text="Ok" android:textColor="@color/colorPrimary" /> </LinearLayout>
Step 4 − Add the following code to res/drawable/button_background.xml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <item> <shape> <stroke android:width="2dp" android:color="@color/colorPrimary" /> <solid android:color="@android:color/transparent" /> <corners android:bottomLeftRadius="6dp" android:bottomRightRadius="6dp" android:topLeftRadius="6dp" android:topRightRadius="6dp" /> </shape> </item> </selector>
Step 5 − Add the following code to res/drawable/ic_success.xml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <vector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:height="24dp" android:viewportHeight="512" android:viewportWidth="512" android:width="24dp"> <path android:fillColor="#FFFFFF" android:pathData="M468.907,214.604c-11.423,0 -20.682,9.26 -20.682,20.682v20.831c-0.031,54.338 -21.221,105.412 -59.666,143.812c38.417,38.372 -89.467,59.5 -143.761,59.5c-0.04,0 -0.08,0 -0.12,0C132.506,459.365 41.3,368.056 41.364,255.883c0.031, -54.337 21.221,-105.411 59.667,-143.813c38.417,- 38.372 89.468,-59.5 143.761, -59.5c0.04,0 0.08,0 0.12,0c28.672,0.016 56.49,5.942 82.68,17.611c10.436,4.65 22.659, -0.041 27.309,-10.474c4.648,-10.433 -0.04,-22.659 - 10.474,-27.309c-31.516,-14.043 -64.989,-21.173 -99.492,-21.192c-0.052,0 -0.092,0 - 0.144,0c-65.329,0 -126.767,25.428 -172.993,71.6C25.536,129.014 0.038,190.473 0,255.861c-0.037,65.386 25.389,126.874 71.599, 173.136c46.21,46.262 107.668,71.76 173.055,71.798c0.051,0 0.092,0 0.144,0c65.329,0 126.767, -25.427 172.993,-71.6c46.262,-46.20971.76,-107.66871.798,-173.066v20.842C489.589, 223.864 480.33,214.604 468.907,214.604z"/> <path android:fillColor="#FFFFFF" android:pathData="M505.942,39.803c-8.077,- 8.076 -21.172,-8.076 -29.249,0L244.794,271.701l-52.609,-52.609c-8.076,-8.077 -21.172,-8.077 -29.248,0c-8.077,8.077 -8.077,21.172 0,29.249l67.234,67.234c4.038,4.0399.332,6.058 14.625,6.058c5.293,0 10.586,-2.019 14.625, -6.058L505.942,69.052C514.019,60.975 514.019,47.88 505.942,39.803z"/> </vector>
Step 6 − Add the following code to src/MainActivity.java
package com.app.sample;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AlertDialog;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
findViewById(R.id.buttonShowDialog).setOnClickListener(new
View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
showCustomDialog();
}
});
}
private void showCustomDialog() {
ViewGroup viewGroup = findViewById(android.R.id.content);
View dialogView = LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.my_dialog, viewGroup, false);
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
builder.setView(dialogView);
AlertDialog alertDialog = builder.create();
alertDialog.show();
}
}Step 7 − Add the following code to Manifests/AndroidManifest.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="com.app.sample"> <application android:allowBackup="true" android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher" android:label="@string/app_name" android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round" android:supportsRtl="true" android:theme="@style/AppTheme"> <activity android:name=".MainActivity"> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> </intent-filter> </activity> </application> </manifest>
Let's try to run your application. I assume you have connected your actual Android Mobile device with your computer. To run the app from the android studio, open one of your project's activity files and click Run 
icon from the toolbar. Select your mobile device as an option and then check your mobile device which will display your default screen −
