I have a trivial HelloWorld example. The activity has android:theme="@android:style/Theme" in AndroidManifest.xml and displays as a full-screen activity. If I change the style to "@android:style/Theme.Dialog", it launches as a dialog and I can see the Home screen as the background. Both of these are as expected.
The problem arises if the manifest has "@android:style/Theme", but I do setTheme(android.R.Theme_Dialog) in onCreate() before the call to setContentView. In this case, the activity shows as a dialog box, but the background is all black. Shouldn't this be exactly the same as using "@android:style/Theme.Dialog" in the manifest? I want to be able to choose between themes conditionally, and so am trying to call setTheme(android.R.Theme_Dialog) in onCreate().
