Answer 1

you can add builder.show(); after validation message before return;

like this

    public void login()
{
    final AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
    builder.setView(R.layout.login_layout);
    builder.setTitle("Login");



    builder.setNegativeButton("Cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener()
    {
        @Override
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id)
        {
            dialog.cancel();
        }
    });// put the negative button before the positive button, so it will appear

    builder.setPositiveButton("Ok", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener()
    {
        @Override
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id)
        {
            Dialog d = (Dialog) dialog;
            final EditText etUserName = (EditText) d.findViewById(R.id.etLoginName);
            final EditText etPassword = (EditText) d.findViewById(R.id.etLoginPassword);
            String userName = etUserName.getText().toString().trim();
            String password = etPassword.getText().toString().trim();

            if (userName.isEmpty() || password.isEmpty())
            {

                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                        "Please Fill all fields", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                builder.show();// here after validation message before retrun
                               //  it will reopen the dialog
                              // till the user enter the right condition
                return;
            }

            user = Manager.get(getApplicationContext()).getUserByName(userName);

            if (user == null)
            {
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                        "Error ethier username or password are wrong", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                builder.show();
                return;
            }
            if (password.equals(user.getPassword()))
            {
                etPassword.setText("");
                etUserName.setText("");
                setLogged(1);
                setLoggedId(user.getUserId());
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                        "Successfully logged in", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
               dialog.dismiss();// if every thing is ok then dismiss the dialog
            }
            else
            {
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                        "Error ethier username or password are wrong", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                builder.show();
                return;
            }

        }
    });

    builder.show();

}
