    builder.setIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher);
    builder.setItems(test, new OnClickListener() {  
        @Override
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            System.out.println("onClick " + which);

        }
    });
    builder.setAdapter(adapter, new OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {

            new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                            @Override
                            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which)
                            {
                                dialog.dismiss();
                             }
                       });
                builder.setNegativeButton("No",
                        new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                            @Override

You can achieve this by using AlertDialog.Builder, but instead of using standard dialog, you need to inflate your own xml to override the view.

update

or create an activity with dialog style:

your custom style:

<style name="styleActivityDialog" parent="@android:style/Theme.Light.NoTitleBar">
 <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
 <item name="android:windowFrame">@null</item>
 <item name="android:windowIsFloating">true</item>
 <item name="android:windowContentOverlay">@null</item>
 <item name="android:colorBackgroundCacheHint">@android:color/transparent</item>
 <item name="android:windowAnimationStyle">@android:style/Animation.Dialog</item>
 <item name="android:windowSoftInputMode">stateUnspecified|adjustPan</item>

 <item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/bg_activity_dialog</item>
</style>

drawable bg_activity_dialog:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

      <stroke android:width="1dp" android:color="#C0C0C0" />
      <solid android:color="#FFFFFF" />
      <corners android:radius="5dp" />
      <padding android:top="5dp" android:bottom="5dp" android:left="5dp" 
         android:right="5dp"/>
    </shape>

your activity in AndroidManifest.xml:

<activity android:name=".ActivityDialog"
     android:theme="@style/styleActivityDialog">
</activity>

now create any layout for your activity ActivityDialog and it should appear as a dialog window

You could create an Activity with the layout you desire and add the following theme to the Activity's tag in the AndroidManifest.xml to simulate a dialog look.

android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Dialog"

If that is not enough, you can use inheritance and modify this specific theme to use a translucent, non-dim background.

<style name="MyTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Dialog">
     <item name="android:windowIsTranslucent">true</item>
     <item name="android:windowBackground">@android:color/transparent</item>
     <item name="android:backgroundDimEnabled">false</item>
</style>
