You can use Dialog to create this easily
create a Dialog instance using the context
Dialog dialog = new Dialog(contex);
You can design your layout as you like.
You can add this layout to your dialog by
dialog.setContentView(R.layout.popupview);//popup view is the layout you created
then you can access its content (textviews, etc.) by using findViewById
method
TextView txt = (TextView)dialog.findViewById(R.id.textbox);
you can add any text here. the text can be stored in the String.xml file in res\values.
txt.setText(getString(R.string.message));
then finally show the pop up menu
dialog.show();
