Intent : remove Always / Only once buttons

I'm pretty new to Android development.

Is it possible to remove the two buttons (Always / Only Once) when opening an Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT ?

Here is my current code. 

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
intent.setType("image/*");
startActivityForResult(intent,PICK);

The key is to create an Intent.createChooser(), if you call Intent.createChooser(), passing it your Intent object, it returns a version of your intent that will always display the chooser. Example:

Intent sendIntent = new Intent();
sendIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "This is my awesome text to share.");
sendIntent.setType("text/plain");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "Share via"));

I found a way to achieve this : 

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
intent.setType("image/*");
Intent openInChooser = Intent.createChooser(intent, "Open in...");
startActivityForResult(openInChooser,PICK);

That is a system generated dialog, so you cannot alter it.

You could use queryIntentActivities() to get a list of the apps which can respond to your intent, and then show them in your own dialog without the buttons if you like.
