Intent resultIntent = new Intent(application, MainActivity.class);
resultIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
PendingIntent resultPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(application, 0, resultIntent, 0);
NotificationManager nmgr = (NotificationManager) application.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(application)
            .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.icon_battery)
            .setContentTitle(application.getString(R.string.app_name))
            .setContentText("your text")
            .setOnlyAlertOnce(false)
            .setAutoCancel(true)
            .setTicker("your ticker")
            .setDefaults(Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND  ) //| Notification.DEFAULT_VIBRATE
            .setContentIntent(resultPendingIntent)
            .setVisibility(VISIBILITY_SECRET)
            .setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_MIN);

Notification mNotification = mBuilder.build();
//  mNotification.flags |= FLAG_NO_CLEAR;
nmgr.notify(0, mNotification);
