Private DatePickerDialog createDialogWithoutDateField(){

    DatePickerDialog dpd = new DatePickerDialog(_activity, ExpiryDateSetListener,cyear,cmonth, cday);
    try{
    Field[] datePickerDialogFields = dpd.getClass().getDeclaredFields();
    for (Field datePickerDialogField : datePickerDialogFields) { 
        if (datePickerDialogField.getName().equals("mDatePicker")) {
            datePickerDialogField.setAccessible(true);
            DatePicker datePicker = (DatePicker) datePickerDialogField.get(dpd);
            Field datePickerFields[] = datePickerDialogField.getType().getDeclaredFields();
            for (Field datePickerField : datePickerFields) {
               if ("mDayPicker".equals(datePickerField.getName())) {
                  datePickerField.setAccessible(true);
                  Object dayPicker = new Object();
                  dayPicker = datePickerField.get(datePicker);
                  ((View) dayPicker).setVisibility(View.GONE);
               }
            }
         }

      }
    }catch(Exception ex){
    }
  return dpd;

}

Use the above code for hiding the day field in DatePickerDialog.
