How to set notification with custom sound in android

Question

I copied the mp3 (kalimba.mp3) file into the raw folder in the res folder. But when the notification is triggered it produces the default sound.

Answer 1

I have implemented this way to set custom Notification sound in my app.

  int notificationID=001;
        NotificationManager mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);

        NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this);

        mBuilder.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.room);
        mBuilder.setContentTitle("Room Rent , Pay Room Rent");
        mBuilder.setContentText("Hi, Its time to pay your Room Rent!");
        mBuilder.setAutoCancel(true);
        mBuilder.setColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.colorViolet));
        mBuilder.setSound(Uri.parse("android.resource://com.roommanagement.app/" + R.raw.notification_sound));

        if (mNotificationManager!=null){
            mNotificationManager.notify(notificationID, mBuilder.build());
        }

Hop this will help you.Thanks...
