EDIT

this is the method that show the dialog

public static void showDialogMessage(Activity activity, String title,
            String message, String buttonString, final OnClickListener listener) {

        try {
                final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(activity);
                dialog.getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
                dialog.setContentView(R.layout.dialog_error_message_layout);
                dialog.setCancelable(false);

                TextView titleTV = (TextView) dialog.findViewById(R.id.title_textview);
                TextView descriptionTV = (TextView) dialog
                        .findViewById(R.id.description_textview);
                Button okButton = (Button) dialog.findViewById(R.id.ok_button);
                Button cancelButton = (Button) dialog.findViewById(R.id.cancel_button);

                titleTV.setText(title);
                descriptionTV.setText(message);
                okButton.setText(buttonString);
                cancelButton.setVisibility(View.GONE);

                okButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onClick(View v) {
                        dialog.dismiss();
                        if (listener != null)
                            listener.onClick(null);
                    }
                });

                dialog.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawableResource(
                        android.R.color.transparent);
                dialog.show();
        } catch (BadTokenException exception) {
            exception.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

The error occurs when Activity gets finished before dialog successfully dismisses. So the Dialog's view is not attached to the windowManager.

Add this check before dismissing the Dialog:

if (!activity.this.isFinishing() && dialog != null) {
        dialog.dismiss();
    }

Alternatively you can dismiss your dialog in onPause() or onDestroy() of the activity.

 @Override
public void onPause() {
    super.onPause();

    if ((dialog != null) && dialog.isShowing())
        dialog.dismiss();
    dialog = null;
}
