changing theme of android dialog

Question

In my Android application I have set the theme of the app as

android:Theme.Holo.Light

I created the dialog as

final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(DropPicupProcess.this);

But when I pop up an dialogbox in the app it shows as below.

How can I change the theme of the dialog into android:Theme.Holo.Light.

Answer 1

Instead of this

final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(DropPicupProcess.this);

Create your dialog like this..

Dialog dialog=new Dialog(DropPicupProcess.this,android.R.style.Theme_Holo_Light);

Answer 2

you can try this

Dialog dialog=new Dialog(DropPicupProcess.this,new ContextThemeWrapper(this,android.R.style.Theme_Holo_Light));
