    use a notifiation? that's what they're there for, especially in lollipop, which adds notifications to the lock screen. – Marc B Nov 28 '14 at 15:41

You can use "service" for this case. For example: http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/AndroidServices/article.html

From a service you can create your own dialog without activity: How to display a Dialog from a Service
