Solution:

Make your EditText clickable and focusable false like,

<EditText
    android:id="@+id/etDOB"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:clickable="false"
    android:cursorVisible="false"
    android:focusable="false"
    android:hint="Select" />

Then in your Fragment Class, put below code,

@Override
public View onCreateView(@NonNull LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.layout_xxx, container, false);

    EditText etDOB=view.findViewById(R.id.etDOB);
    etDOB.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            openDatePickerDialog(v);
        }
    });    
}

public void openDatePickerDialog(final View v) {
    // Get Current Date
    DatePickerDialog datePickerDialog = new DatePickerDialog(getActivity(),
            (view, year, monthOfYear, dayOfMonth) -> {
                String selectedDate = dayOfMonth + "/" + (monthOfYear + 1) + "/" + year; 
                switch (v.getId()) {
                    case R.id.etDOB:
                        ((EditText)v).setText(selectedDate);
                        break;                         
                }
            }, cal.get(Calendar.YEAR), cal.get(Calendar.MONTH), cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH));


    datePickerDialog.getDatePicker().setMaxDate(cal.getTimeInMillis());        
    datePickerDialog.show();
}

Try this in the XML file:

    <EditText
   android:id="@+id/Birthday"
   custom:font="@string/font_avenir_book"
   android:clickable="true"
   android:editable="false"
   android:hint="@string/birthday"/>

Now in Java File:

 Calendar myCalendar = Calendar.getInstance();

EditText edittext= (EditText) findViewById(R.id.Birthday);
DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener date = new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {

    @Override
    public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, int monthOfYear,
            int dayOfMonth) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        myCalendar.set(Calendar.YEAR, year);
        myCalendar.set(Calendar.MONTH, monthOfYear);
        myCalendar.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, dayOfMonth);
        updateLabel();
    }

};

edittext.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        new DatePickerDialog(classname.this, date, myCalendar
                .get(Calendar.YEAR), myCalendar.get(Calendar.MONTH),
                myCalendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH)).show();
    }
});

Now add the method in the above activity.

 private void updateLabel() {
    String myFormat = "MM/dd/yy"; //In which you need put here
    SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(myFormat, Locale.US);

    edittext.setText(sdf.format(myCalendar.getTime()));
}

Add android:focusable="false" within the xml file of the EditText to allow for a single touch.
