I've made an app which manage sms, I've created the notifications but when I click on them it starts another activity, I would like to know how to check if an activity has been stopped and resume it.
Here is the code used to create the pendingintent:
private void createNotification(SmsMessage sms, Context context){
final NotificationManager nm = (NotificationManager)context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
String contentTitle = "";
// construct the Notification object.
final NotificationCompat.Builder builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context)
.setContentTitle(contentTitle)
.setContentText(sms.getMessageBody())
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher)
.setLargeIcon(getIconBitmap())
.setNumber(nmessages);
builder.setAutoCancel(true);
//(R.drawable.stat_sample, tickerText,
// System.currentTimeMillis());
// Set the info for the views that show in the notification panel.
//notif.setLatestEventInfo(this, from, message, contentIntent);
/*
// On tablets, the ticker shows the sender, the first line of the message,
// the photo of the person and the app icon. For our sample, we just show
// the same icon twice. If there is no sender, just pass an array of 1 Bitmap.
notif.tickerTitle = from;
notif.tickerSubtitle = message;
notif.tickerIcons = new Bitmap[2];
notif.tickerIcons[0] = getIconBitmap();;
notif.tickerIcons[1] = getIconBitmap();;
*/
// Creates an explicit intent for an Activity in your app
Intent resultIntent = new Intent(context, BasicActivity.class);
resultIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
// Because clicking the notification opens a new ("special") activity, there's
// no need to create an artificial back stack.
PendingIntent resultPendingIntent =
PendingIntent.getActivity(
context,
0,
resultIntent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT
);
// Ritardo in millisecondi
builder.setContentIntent(resultPendingIntent);
nm.notify(R.drawable.ic_drawer, builder.build());
You need to set flags in your PendingIntent's ...like FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT.
Here is all on it.

Edit 1: I misunderstood the question.
Here are links to topics that had the same issue but are resolved:
resuming an activity from a notification
Notification Resume Activity
Intent to resume a previously paused activity (Called from a Notification)
Android: resume app from previous position
Please read the above answers for a full solution and let me know if it works.
Try with this.
NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(
mContext).setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher)
.setContentTitle(mContext.getString(R.string.notif_title))
.setContentText(mContext.getString(R.string.notif_msg));
mBuilder.setAutoCancel(true);
// Set notification sound
Uri alarmSound = RingtoneManager
.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);
mBuilder.setSound(alarmSound);
Intent resultIntent = mActivity.getIntent();
resultIntent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
resultIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(mContext, 0, resultIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
mBuilder.setContentIntent(pendingIntent);
NotificationManager mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) mContext
.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
// mId allows you to update the notification later on.
mNotificationManager.notify(mId, mBuilder.build());
The only solution that actually worked for me after doing a lot of search is to do the following :
here you are simply launching of the application keeping the current stack:
//here you specify the notification properties
NotificationCompat.Builder builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this).set...(...).set...(..);
//specifying an action and its category to be triggered once clicked on the notification
Intent resultIntent = new Intent(this, MainClass.class);
resultIntent.setAction("android.intent.action.MAIN");
resultIntent.addCategory("android.intent.category.LAUNCHER");
PendingIntent resultPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, resultIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
//building the notification
builder.setContentIntent(resultPendingIntent);
NotificationManager mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
mNotificationManager.notify(0, builder.build());
Add this line to the corresponding activity in manifest file of your app.
android:launchMode="singleTask"
eg:
<activity
android:name=".Main_Activity"
android:label="@string/title_main_activity"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme.NoActionBar"
android:launchMode="singleTask" />
