Change your constructor, this line:

}, year, month, year);

I don't know why you have two year, but second year is acctually dayOfMonth look into documentation:

DatePickerDialog(Context context, DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener listener, int year, int month, int dayOfMonth)

If you want change default date of date picker change this 3 variables, year, month and dayOfMonth to set specific date.

Use the update method

Calendar now = Calendar.getInstance();   

now.add(Calendar.DATE, -1); 

int year = now.get(Calendar.YEAR);
int month = now.get(Calendar.MONTH); // it's zero based
int day = now.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);

DatePicker datePicker.updateDate(year, month, day);
