Answer 1

I would use:

• A relative layout that contains:
  • The real content of your activity
  • An overlay view, with white background, matching parent widht and height.
• And animation that changes the alpha of the overlay to transparent or to solid, as you need.
• If you have problems receiving touch and dont get to get crazy animation listener to remove the view as soon as its alfa is cero.
