How to add notification icon in notification area in android?
I try this but this show a blank white space in notification area.
mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) this
.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0,
new Intent(this, Receive_Message_list.class), 0);
NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(
this)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.pushicon)
.setContentTitle("MAY-I")
.setStyle(new NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle()
.bigText(notification_message))
.setContentText(notification_message);
mBuilder.setContentIntent(contentIntent);
mNotificationManager.notify(NOTIFICATION_ID, mBuilder.build());
On android 5.0, the icon is passed thru a color filter that makes all non transparent pixels, white.
from, http://developer.android.com/design/patterns/notifications.html
Use color to distinguish your app from others. Notification icons should only be a white-on-transparent background image.
private void showNotification(final String title, String text, int ID, boolean showTimeStamp) {
NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this) //Use a builder
.setContentTitle(title) // Title
.setContentText(text) // Message to display
.setTicker(text).setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_notif_small) // This one is also displayed in ticker message
.setLargeIcon(BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.bulb)); // In notification bar
Intent resultIntent = new Intent(this, MainActivity.class);
TaskStackBuilder stackBuilder = TaskStackBuilder.create(this);
stackBuilder.addParentStack(MainActivity.class);
stackBuilder.addNextIntent(resultIntent);
PendingIntent resultPendingIntent = stackBuilder.getPendingIntent(0, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
mBuilder.setContentIntent(resultPendingIntent);
//mBuilder.addAction(R.drawable.bulb_small, "OK", resultPendingIntent);
Notification notification = mBuilder.build();
notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL | Notification.FLAG_SHOW_LIGHTS | Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND;
notification.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_LIGHTS | Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND | Notification.DEFAULT_VIBRATE;
long time = 0;
if (showTimeStamp)
Calendar.getInstance().getTimeInMillis();
else
time = android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 9 ? -Long.MAX_VALUE : Long.MAX_VALUE;
notification.when = time;
//notification.icon = R.drawable.ic_moneta_logo_small;
//mNotificationManager.cancelAll(); //Clear all currently display notifications
mNotificationManager.cancel(ID);
mNotificationManager.notify(ID, notification);
}
