onBackPressed() does not work

I'm showing up a Dialog on app-start, where you have to select a config. Since it is essential to select one config, I want to "disable" the back-button via a empty onBackPressed().

I got the following code in a DialogFragment:

 public class ChangeConfigDialogFragment extends DialogFragment {

    public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // Use the Builder class for convenient dialog construction
        AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(getActivity());
        builder.setTitle(R.string.dialog_config_change)
                .setItems(R.array.config_array,
                        new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog,
                                    int which) {
                                // The 'which' argument contains the index
                                // position
                                // of the selected item
                                if (which == 0){
                                    Initiation.BAUDRATE = 500;
                                    Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Baudrate at " + Initiation.BAUDRATE, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                                    if (Initiation.getADK() == null){
                                        Initiation.initiateCAN();
                                    }
                                } else if (which == 1) {
                                    Initiation.BAUDRATE = 600;
                                    Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Baudrate at " + Initiation.BAUDRATE, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                                    if (Initiation.getADK() == null){
                                        Initiation.initiateCAN();
                                    }
                                } else if (which == 2) {
                                    Initiation.BAUDRATE = 700;
                                    Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Baudrate at " + Initiation.BAUDRATE, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                                    if (Initiation.getADK() == null){
                                        Initiation.initiateCAN();
                                    }
                                }

                            }

                        });
        // Create the AlertDialog object and return it
        return builder.create();
    }

    public void onBackPressed(){
        Log.d(getTag(), "are you there?");

    }
}

The problem is, that the onBackPressed() is never been called. Even the log message does not appear.

I tried to clean the project, but no success. Also tried to use a onKeyDown-method from some other topics here on SO. Does anyone has a clue how to solve this?

EDIT:

It works now. .setCancelable(false); worked, but I was to stupid to add it to the Dialog from which the Fragment was called. (instead added it to the builder

Thanks for all your help and time.

Try

public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
        // Handle the back button

        if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) {
                     return false;
        }
        return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
    }

or 

dialog.setCancelable(false);

I did not try this, but it might work if you set the OnKeyListeneron the builder like this:

builder.setOnKeyListener(new DialogInterface.OnKeyListener() {
    @Override
    public boolean onKey(DialogInterface dialog, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
        if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) {
            return false;
        }
    }
});

From your question it seems that while your dialog is open you need not to close dialog untill user can select any 1 open from dialog if i am not wrong then,so for this you need not to disable back key but you have to set this two properties for dialog.

dialog.setCancelable(false);
dialog.setCanceledOnTouchOutside(false);

OR

If you want to disable back key then use the below code,

@Override
 public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
 if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) {
 //preventing default implementation previous to android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.ECLAIR
 return true;
 }
 return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);    }

OnbackkeyPressed Requires Api Level 5 Or higher.

@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
}

Use builder.setCancelable(false)
