Blur Background Behind AlertDialog

As we know from API 14 the Below Blur has been deprecated

dialog.getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND); 

Is there any alternative for this to make the Screen Blur behind Dialog I have tried FAST blur

Update:

We can also use renderscript api to blur background for API level >= 17 and uses fastblur for API level < 17. Please find below Github project.

Steps Using FastBlur

1) Take the Snapshot of Your Background using Below Code

private static Bitmap takeScreenShot(Activity activity)
    {
        View view = activity.getWindow().getDecorView();
        view.setDrawingCacheEnabled(true);
        view.buildDrawingCache();
        Bitmap b1 = view.getDrawingCache();
        Rect frame = new Rect();
        activity.getWindow().getDecorView().getWindowVisibleDisplayFrame(frame);
        int statusBarHeight = frame.top;
        int width = activity.getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getWidth();
        int height = activity.getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getHeight();

        Bitmap b = Bitmap.createBitmap(b1, 0, statusBarHeight, width, height  - statusBarHeight);
        view.destroyDrawingCache();
        return b;
    }

use it Like This Bitmap map=takeScreenShot(BlurImageView.this);// Your Actitvity Name

2) Call the Method Bitmap fast=fastblur(map, 10); Got it From Here

    public Bitmap fastblur(Bitmap sentBitmap, int radius) {
        Bitmap bitmap = sentBitmap.copy(sentBitmap.getConfig(), true);

        if (radius < 1) {
            return (null);
        }

        int w = bitmap.getWidth();
        int h = bitmap.getHeight();

        int[] pix = new int[w * h];
        Log.e("pix", w + " " + h + " " + pix.length);
        bitmap.getPixels(pix, 0, w, 0, 0, w, h);

        int wm = w - 1;
        int hm = h - 1;
        int wh = w * h;
        int div = radius + radius + 1;

        int r[] = new int[wh];

            stackpointer = radius;
            for (y = 0; y < h; y++) {
                // Preserve alpha channel: ( 0xff000000 & pix[yi] )

        Log.e("pix", w + " " + h + " " + pix.length);
        bitmap.setPixels(pix, 0, w, 0, 0, w, h);

        return (bitmap);
    }

3) Finally on Button click

btnblur.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {

                AlertDialog.Builder builder=new AlertDialog.Builder(BlurImageView.this,R.style.Theme_D1NoTitleDim);
                builder.setTitle("Content");
                builder.setMessage("CLICK OK to Exit");
                builder.setPositiveButton("ON", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                        back_dim_layout.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                        dialog.cancel();
                    }
                });
                alert=builder.create();
                Bitmap map=takeScreenShot(BlurImageView.this);

                Bitmap fast=fastblur(map, 10);
                final Drawable draw=new BitmapDrawable(getResources(),fast);
                alert.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable(draw);
                alert.show();
            }
        });

That's It Now You can see the Blur Image Behind You Activity

Hope this could Help full for AnyOne...
