To avoid the Calendar in your DatePicker for later APIs

Add 

android:datePickerMode="spinner"

instead of 

android:calenderViewShown="false"

in your layout XML for the DatePicker widget.

In Case that you have instance of DatePicker you must write only this in your method `

        int currentapiVersion = android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT;
        if (currentapiVersion >= 11) {
            yourDatePickerInstance.setCalendarViewShown(false);
        }`

Use the code of Raval. But to run it below Android version 11, do following:

int currentapiVersion = android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT;
        if (currentapiVersion >= 11) {
          try {
            Method m = datePicker.getClass().getMethod("setCalendarViewShown", boolean.class);
            m.invoke(datePicker, false);
          }
          catch (Exception e) {} // eat exception in our case
        }

Now you have it working on all Android versions (Above API > 3)

You can use yourDatepicker.setCalendarViewShown(false);

This method works in Api >= 11 .
