Answer 1

You can set a min and max date for DatePicker, do something like this:

yourDatePickerDialog.getDatePicker().setMinDate(youMinDate);

Answer 2

try this one

DatePickerDialog datePicker;
 private Calendar calendar;
private int year, month, day;
      // FETCH YEAR,MONTH,DAY FROM CALENDAR
   calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
    year = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
    month = calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH);
    day = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);

datePicker = new DatePickerDialog(this, YOUR_LISTENER, year, month, day);
// this line is used for disable previous date but u can select the date
datePicker.getDatePicker().setMinDate(System.currentTimeMillis());
// this line is used to prevent date selection 
 datePicker.getDatePicker().setCalendarViewShown(false);
