Answer 1

You can use below method for that

datePickerDialog.getDatePicker().setMaxDate(minDate.getTime());

setup for minDate

 Date minDate = null;
 SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");
 try 
 {
         minDate = sdf.parse("31/12/1996");
 } 
 catch (ParseException e) 
 {
       e.printStackTrace();
  }
