I found solution with the wrapper, where you can set a theme (style) to anything in the current context. I set R.style.MyTheme as style to my alert dialog and I customized that view to my own taste.

ContextThemeWrapper ctw = new ContextThemeWrapper( this, R.style.MyTheme );
        AlertDialog.Builder builder= new AlertDialog.Builder( ctw );

You answered your question yourself but it did not work for me, so here's my answer hope to be helpful for everyone who need it:

<style name="PauseDialog" parent="@android:style/Theme.Dialog">
        <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
        <item name="android:windowBackground">@android:color/transparent</item>

</style>

Put this style in res\values\styles.xml file and just set the theme of your activity to it in your Manifest. Like this:

android:theme="@style/PauseDialog"
