Answer 1

In manifest file declare the secondactivity activity like this. android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Dialog".then simply call the secondactivity from firstactivity from your code.

Second Activity xml file.you can design as your wish but for reference i have posted this.the key concept is in manifestfile (ie) how to define your secondactivity in manifest
