android: Onclick editText show value in alert dialog just below that specific editText

Question

I have multiple editText in my app. I have achieved to show value of editText in alert dalog. The problem is that its shown in center of screen and sometimes cover the editText. I want a way that the alert dialog {with no title and no button (which I have already done) and show just message} to shown below the specific editText which I click.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in Advance

NOTE CHANGING GRAVITY DOESNT HELP BCOZ OF DIFFERENT SCREEN SIZES

MY CODE

UNDER ON CREATE

 etDesc = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.etdesc);
         etDesc.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() 
         {
                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) 
                {
                if (etDesc.getText().toString().equals(("")))
                {
                    //Do nothing
                }
                else
                {
                setalert();
            }

                }

                });

FUNCTION OF ALERT

public void setalert()
        {
            AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(mContext); 
            AlertDialog alert = builder.create();
            alert.setMessage(etDesc.getText().toString());
            alert.setCanceledOnTouchOutside(true);

            WindowManager.LayoutParams wmlp = alert.getWindow().getAttributes();

             wmlp.gravity = Gravity.CENTER ;
             wmlp.x = 100;   //x position
             wmlp.y = 100;   //y position

            alert.show();
        }

I Have tried Center | LEFT . But on different screen size it shows differently — Tushar Narang, May 02 '14 at 05:35
Do you want alertdialog without title ? Please be precise what you want exactly and what is the current status? — GrIsHu, May 02 '14 at 05:36
alert.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE); use this to avoid title. — Top Cat, May 02 '14 at 05:37
Yes without TITLE WITHOUT BUTTONS. ITS Just to show whats unside the editText. actually the EditTEXt are single line but data is multi line. so on click I want to show whats inside it — Tushar Narang, May 02 '14 at 05:38
for this you can use custom dialog box and make that custom dialog box transparent. — Umang Kothari, May 02 '14 at 05:38
but still it wont solve how to show the value of editText in alert just below that specific editTeXt — Tushar Narang, May 02 '14 at 05:41
IF there is an alternative other than toast. please tell that also — Tushar Narang, May 02 '14 at 05:43

@PramodJGeorge : yeah your link is useful. I will check that out. — Tushar Narang, May 02 '14 at 05:47
@PramodJGeorge : I think its too much coding for just a simple custom alert — Tushar Narang, May 02 '14 at 05:49
Can we not just simply align alert dialog below the editText??? — Tushar Narang, May 02 '14 at 05:51
try using popupwindow, where you can decide the position of the window based on the view. — Ritesh Gune, May 02 '14 at 06:29
