In Android settings users can turn off notification if they don't want to. So is there any method that like isNotificationAllowed() to check is my app is allowed to show notification? And how to open android setting page to guide my users to turn on notification?

I'm fighting against the NotificationListenerService without much luck. I tried a lot of recipes found here and there, especially on so... But it works quite inconsistently. A first look at the code : Manifest : <service android:name=".services.NLService" android:permission="android.permission.BIND_NOTIFICATION_LISTENER_SERVICE" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.service.notification.NotificationListenerService" /> </intent-filter> </service> Then the service itself : public class NLService extends NotificationListenerService { private String TAG = "NLService"; // bind and unbind

I am adding a Notification to System bar using the NotificationCompat library. This Notification has two action buttons. Also, AutoCancel() property on the Notification is set to true. On Click of the action buttons, System is configured to launch an IntentService which calls NotificationManager.cancel(NOTIFICATION_ID) and then launches an Activity in a New Task. Problem is that though this call removes the notification from the tray, it does not collapse the drawer. The called Activity is drawn behind the drawer. Can someone please shed some light on what special code is need to close the

I'm using the click_action and it's working fine, the app opens the desired Activity. Now I need the server to pass an extra parameter, an id , to this Activity so I can present the desired details associated with the notification. Like an e-mail application, that when we click on the notification opens the details of that specif email. How can I do this? Ok, I have found the solution. This is the json that I'm sending from the server to the app {

Since Android 5.0 large icons in notifications have color background: For small icon, it is the accent color of notification ( Notification.Builder.setColor(int) ). How do I set it for large icon? Is it part of the actual image? If it is, what should the circle radius be? Yes, the color of the large icon is part of the actual image. The dimensions of the large icon on lollipop are 40x40dp with a optical view filling the entire image. So you should create an asset of 40x40dp with a circle of a 20dp radius. You can set the notification's large icon as follows: NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder

Is it possible to have a notification that shows a different text (content title and content text) in the Android wear device and in the mobile device? Not at the moment. However, you can achieve this effect in the following way: post a notification on the phone with setLocalOnly(true) post a DataItem using a DataAPI that describes the notification and changed text when the wearable receives the DataItem , post the notification with different text, again setting setLocalOnly(true) on each notification alse call setDeleteIntent so you know, when there are dismissed when on of the notifications

I have some code that creates some notifications, it's really basic. int icon = R.drawable.notification; CharSequence tickerText = "Text"; long when = System.currentTimeMillis(); Notification notification = new Notification(icon, tickerText, when); Context context = getApplicationContext(); CharSequence contentTitle = "Text"; CharSequence contentText = "Text"; Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(this, RequestActivity.class); PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, notificationIntent, 0); notification.setLatestEventInfo(context, contentTitle, contentText,
