This is code working on Android 2.3 and 4.0 not working,

    AlertDialog alertDialog = alertDialogBuilder.create();
    WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = alertDialog.getWindow().getAttributes();  
    lp.dimAmount=0.0f;  
    alertDialog.getWindow().setAttributes(lp);  
    alertDialog.getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND);  
    alertDialog.show();
Was it helpful?

Solution

FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND was deprecated in API level 14.

Blurring is no longer supported.

As per Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer

I recommend avoiding this. Back in the G1 days the blur effect could be implemented somewhat efficiently in software. Those days are long past. This is something you should avoid until at some point in the future when it is done on the GPU.

OTHER TIPS

FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND is deprecated at API Level 14 that's why it works on 2.3 and not on 4.0
