Create a progressDialog only with the spinner (in the middle)

Question

I need to create a progressDialog only with the spinner and without the box (or at least with a smaller box and the image in the middle).

I don't want to add a spinner to my .xml (layout file) to load the spinner.

Is there any way to accomplish this? Thanks!

try this way:

pd = new ProgressDialog(Login.this,R.style.MyTheme);
pd.setCancelable(false);
pd.setProgressStyle(android.R.style.Widget_ProgressBar_Small);
pd.show();

And create Theme in values\styles.xml

 <style name="MyTheme" parent="android:Theme.Holo.Dialog">
    <item name="android:alertDialogStyle">@style/CustomAlertDialogStyle</item>
    <item name="android:windowBackground">@color/transparent</item>
    <item name="android:textColorPrimary">#FFFFFF</item>
     <item name="android:backgroundDimEnabled">false</item>
    <item name="android:textColor">#FFFFFF</item>
    <item name="android:textStyle">normal</item>
    <item name="android:textSize">12sp</item>
</style>

And also add this Theme in values\styles.xml

 <style name="CustomAlertDialogStyle">
    <item name="android:bottomBright">@color/transparent</item>
    <item name="android:bottomDark">@color/transparent</item>
    <item name="android:bottomMedium">@color/transparent</item>
    <item name="android:centerBright">@color/transparent</item>
    <item name="android:centerDark">@color/transparent</item>
    <item name="android:centerMedium">@color/transparent</item>
    <item name="android:fullBright">@color/transparent</item>
    <item name="android:fullDark">@color/transparent</item>
    <item name="android:topBright">@color/transparent</item>
    <item name="android:topDark">@color/transparent</item>
</style>

And add values\colors.xml

<color name="transparent">#00000000</color>

Just single line code :

pd.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(Color.TRANSPARENT));
