I'm using this code to create a Heads Up notification.
private static void showNotificationNew(final Context context,final String title,final String message,final Intent intent, final int notificationId, final boolean isHeaderNotification) {
NotificationCompat.Builder notificationBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context.getApplicationContext())
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.prime_builder_icon)
.setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_DEFAULT)
.setCategory(Notification.CATEGORY_MESSAGE)
.setContentTitle(title)
.setContentText(message)
.setWhen(0)
.setTicker(context.getString(R.string.app_name));
PendingIntent fullScreenPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);
notificationBuilder.setContentText(message);
if(isHeaderNotification) {
notificationBuilder.setFullScreenIntent(fullScreenPendingIntent, false);
}
notificationBuilder.setContentIntent(fullScreenPendingIntent);
notificationBuilder.setAutoCancel(true);
Notification notification = notificationBuilder.build();
NotificationManager manager = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
manager.notify(notificationId, notification);
}
The thing is, notification should appear occupying a good part of top screen to call user attention, but after a couple seconds it should dismiss and a normal notification should appear.
But this code doesn't do that. The notification stay occupying all the top screen until user dismiss it.
I'm thinking in create another normal notification with same ID after a couple of seconds using Handler, but I want to know if there is a better way to do this.
Follow an example of WhatsApp, simulating the behavior I want.
