The general rule is that if you want your code to support older versions of Android, it should have the AppCompat theme and the java code should extend AppCompatActivity. In this case, change the Java inheritance from ActionBarActivity to Activity and leave the dialog theme in the manifest as it is, a non Theme.AppCompat value Update : Extending AppCompatActivity would also have this problem The reason you are having this problem is because the activity you are trying to apply the dialog theme to is extending ActionBarActivity which requires the AppCompat theme to be applied.

However, when I tried this I get the following exception: : You need to use a Theme.AppCompat theme (or descendant) with this activity Simply create an activity and set its theme to in the manifest element: If you want a custom dialog, you can instead display an Activity as a dialog instead of using the Dialog APIs.
