Answer 1

Could you just use android.R.layout.simple_list_item_multiple_choice instead of dialog_list_item_category.xml?

Update: @Luksprog's comment is the solution: Remove the RelativeLayout and it works just like with android.R.layout.simple_list_item_multiple_choice.

Answer 2

Are You using the proper xml? There's dialog_list_item_categories.xml but in your code You use everywhere R.layout.dialog_list_item_category
