In your dialog you need to set type of Window which dialog attached, as follows: 

dialog.getWindow().setType(WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_SYSTEM_ALERT);

Do not forget declaring android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW permission in your manifest.

You can't.

Possibly, perhaps using Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar.

More likely, what you think is a Dialog is really a dialog-themed Activity. The main themes (e.g., Theme.Material, Theme.AppCompat) have specific themes with Dialog in their names that cause the activity's window to not fill the entire screen.
