Unable to use Dialog Widget

See original GitHub issue

I have below code written in my fragment to use Dialog Widget, but it always throws NullPointerException when I try to show dialog with dialog.show

Code within Fragment:

Dialog dialog = new Dialog(MyActivity.getLoginRegisterActivityInstance(), "Account locked!", result.getErrorMessage());
dialog.setCancelable(false);
dialog.setOnAcceptButtonClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
         @Override
         public void onClick(View view) {
                  FragmentTransaction ft = getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
                  ft.setCustomAnimations(android.R.anim.fade_in, android.R.anim.fade_out);
                  ft.replace(R.id.logincontent, new RegisterFragment(), null);
                  ft.commit();
           }
});
ButtonFlat acceptButton = dialog.getButtonAccept();
acceptButton.setText("Ok");
ButtonFlat cancelButton = dialog.getButtonCancel();
cancelButton.setVisibility(View.GONE);
dialog.show(); //Exception here

What could be the possible reason?
