This is working as intended, please don't try to work around it. Popping
dialogs up on the user from outside of where they are currently working is
an ugly thing to do.
If you need to get the user's attention from outside of your application,
the notification manager is the recommended solution.

Hi,
I have an activity which listens to certain event from another
application. In onReceive, I fire a dialog box. How do I get the dialog
box to appear on top of the other application? What's happening is that the
dialog box does not appear while the other application still running. But
as soon as I close the other application, it goes back to my activity, and
the dialog box stays there.
Do I need to convert the activity to a service?
Thanks,
J
