So i have created this notification in my activity
Notification n = new Notification.Builder(getApplicationContext())
.setContentTitle("New mail from " + sender)
.setContentText(subject)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.notification)
.build();
How can i now show it in status/notification bar along with the sound?
There is some good documentation at android developer site
and have a look at the NotificationManager doc's
Here you go, some code...:
NotificationManager mNotificationManager =
(NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
// mId allows you to update the notification later on.
mNotificationManager.notify(mId, n);
Note that it is also a goo idea to add your intend to the notification...
mBuilder.setContentIntent(resultPendingIntent);
To add sound you can use the Notification.Builder.setSound()
method.

Use the Notification.Builder.setSound()
method.
You can get the default ringtone like this:
Uri uri= RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);
and then set it as notification sound:
Notification.Builder(getApplicationContext()).setSound(uri);
and then after you've built your notification you launch it with:
myNotificationManager.notify(myNotificationId, n);
