I am trying to enable the ringer normal mode and increase the volume programmatically. AudioManager mobilemode = (AudioManager)mContext.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE); // int streamMaxVolume = mobilemode.getStreamMaxVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_RING); switch (mobilemode.getRingerMode()) { case AudioManager.RINGER_MODE_SILENT: Log.i("MyApp","Silent mode"); mobilemode.setRingerMode(AudioManager.RINGER_MODE_NORMAL); mobilemode.setStreamVolume (AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC,mobilemode.getStreamMaxVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC),0); break; case AudioManager.RINGER_MODE_VIBRATE: Log.i("MyApp",

I'm testing my application on Android P beta release 4. My app's targetSdkVersion is 27 It has been observed that alarm manager notifications are not working as expected. I'm using below code to set the notifications - if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT) { alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, triggerAtMillis, AlarmIntentBuilder.buildPendingIntent(context, uri)); } else if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT && Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < Build.VERSION_CODES.M) { alarmManager.setExact(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, triggerAtMillis,

I have an app that has two services. One is for showing UI for floating (overlay) on other apps using WindowManager . The other is for Location Tracking using GooglePlayAPI . My app always runs these services. I want these services not to be killed by the OS. So I call Service.startForeground() . However there are two notifications in the notification drawer. Is there a way to use a single notification for both services? Yes, it is possible. If we take a look at Service.startForeground() signature, it accept both notification id & the notification itself ( see documentation ). Hence, if we

I'd like the following behavior: The user clicks a notification and Android stops my Service. The problem is that stopping a Service requires a call to stopService and I cannot easily create a PendingIntent that does that. So the only way I found to do this is to have my Service receive a special Intent extra that causes the Service to call stopSelf and stop. Is there a simpler way to directly cancel a Service from a notification click? You could create a simple BroadcastReceiver that does the stopService() call, and use a getBroadcast() PendingIntent to trigger it. That BroadcastReceiver

In my app, I place my Service in the foreground to prevent it from being killed by using: startForeground(NOTIFY_ID, notification); This also displays the notification to the user (which is great). The problem is that later I need to update the notification. So I use the code: notification.setLatestEventInfo(getApplicationContext(), someString, someOtherString, contentIntent); mNotificationManager.notify(NOTIFY_ID, notification); The question then is: will doing this knock the Service out of it's special foreground status? In this answer , CommonsWare indicates that this behavior is possible,

I've a ListView which has the list of installed applications and for each application, I need to know whether the notifications are enabled or not. Currently I'm using below code to know if the notifications are enabled: appOpsClass = Class.forName(AppOpsManager.class.getName()); Method checkOpNoThrowMethod = appOpsClass.getMethod(CHECK_OP_NO_THROW, Integer.TYPE, Integer.TYPE, String.class); Field opPostNotificationValue = appOpsClass.getDeclaredField(OP_POST_NOTIFICATION); int value = (int)opPostNotificationValue.get(Integer.class); return ((int)checkOpNoThrowMethod.invoke(mAppOps,value,

I am trying to write a demo of using setVisibility() to control what shows up on the Android 5.0 lockscreen for a Notification . However, there seems to be no effect: the default VISIBILITY_PRIVATE still shows the private Notification , not its public counterpart VISIBILITY_SECRET notifications still show up on the lockscreen IOW, everything behaves as though VISIBILITY_PUBLIC were in force, at least when I test on a Nexus 7 running the Android 5.0 image we were given shortly after Android 5.0 was released (build LPX13D). So I don't know if the problem is tied to my code, to this device, or to

I have a Notification, which supports play,pause forward and back. private static Notification createNotification(String interpret, String title, boolean paused) { // if (builder == null) builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context); builder.setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_MAX); builder.setAutoCancel(false); builder.setContentTitle(title); builder.setContentText(interpret); builder.setOngoing(true); builder.setOnlyAlertOnce(true); builder.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher); builder.setContentIntent(PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 9, new Intent(context, ApplicationActivity.class),
