By accident i found a way to make your Dialog persist when device orientation changes.

This is C# xamarin code but i believe it can be very easily adapted to java as well.

    private void MakeDialogPersist(Dialog dialog)
    {
        WindowManagerLayoutParams wmlp = new WindowManagerLayoutParams();
        wmlp.CopyFrom(dialog.Window.Attributes);
        dialog.Window.Attributes = wmlp;
    }

I run this method after i perform dialog.Show();
