How to set sound for notification?

Question

I copied the .mp3 file in assets. When notification raises, file is not playing

Could anyone please help me.

notification.sound = Uri.parse("file:///android_assets/alarm_951.mp3");

Answer 1

try the following:

   notifyDetails.flags = Notification.FLAG_ONLY_ALERT_ONCE | Notification.FLAG_SHOW_LIGHTS | Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;

Answer 2

Instead of copying your file to the assets folder copy it to resources/raw/ and then use

Uri sound = Uri.parse("android.resource://" + getPackageName() + "/" + R.raw.mysound);
mBuilder.setSound(sound);
