Disable a whole activity from user action

by

In order to block user touch events, use:

getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_TOUCHABLE,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_TOUCHABLE);

To get touch events back, use:

getWindow().clearFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_TOUCHABLE);

EDIT:
If you want to add a feature of disable and greyed out display, you need to add in your xml layout file a linear layout that fills the parent. Set its background to #B0000000 and its visibilty to Gone. Than programicly set its visibility to Visible.
