I had the same problem. This is what is did.

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
    Button btn;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        btn = (Button)findViewById(R.id.button);
        final AlertDialog alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this).create();
        btn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
            alertDialog.setTitle("Title");
            alertDialog.setMessage("Message");
            alertDialog.setButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
               public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                   Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "well come", 1).show();
               }
            });
        alertDialog.setButton2("cancel",new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "yoy have pressed cancel", 1).show();
            }
        });
        // Set the Icon for the Dialog
        alertDialog.setIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher);
        alertDialog.show();
        // see http://androidsnippets.com/simple-alert-dialog-popup-with-title-message-icon-and-button  
    }
});
    }
}

This works fine. You have to number the buttons for alert-box.
