Is there any way to detect whether the Notification Windows is being shown? I have a service that updates an ongoing notification, complete with a progress bar and text? Is there a way to know if the notifiication screen is actually being shown, so I can adjust how often I wouldn't be so concerned if not for the fact that the HTC Incredible will reboot after it receives several hundred or so updates. Based on a controlled experiment with a beta tester, the service could continue for 24 hours if it did not update progress, but dies after several hundred updates. So I am desperate to reduce the notifications, if that's what works, and one of the ways I could do that is by not updating as much or at all if that screen isn't being shown.

Today I noticed that I received notifications that I have apps with updates available. When I click on the notification it takes me to my downloads in the Marketplace, but it doesn't show me which app has an update. They all just say Installed.
Is there no way to tell what application needs updating?
Anyone getting this problem? The settings are set correctly and once in awhile I go to my market downloads and there are several programs that need an update.

View 2 Replies View RelatedThere are several threads already on how to make custom layouts in the notification bar. The problem is I must be missing something simple.
I have a custom_notification_layout.xml. code...
What is the secret to actually updating the notification?
Is anyone else experiencing problems? I'm on a HTC Desire running 2.2 stock Froyo. The only modification I've made is to manually force apps to the SD card. Since Market 2.12 was released I can download but not install anything. I can't update either, it'll download but then immediately bring up an Installation Failed notification.
I have been advised to clear the Market cache and to uninstall the new update but by the time I reload the Market after uninstalling the update, I'm back on 2.12 as it updates automatically.
Has anyone else experiencing similar problems?
Any idea if there's a fix or do I have to wait for Google to sort it out?
Is there anywhere I can report this to Google?

View 9 Replies View RelatedYesterday afternoon I had the notification on my incredible that an OTA was available. I inadvertently cleared the notification without installing and don't know how to get the update now. I have tried going to system update but it says nothing is available. I have also compared my software numbers to those posted by phandroid and I definitely have the old, non-updated versions. Will Verizon eventually push me another update or have I completely missed the boat?
View 19 Replies View RelatedI've been using my Desire with no issues for about 6 weeks and update notifications have worked perfectly, but this week I've recieved 3 different 'updates available' notifications, but clicking on them takes me to the list of installed apps where no updates are highlighted.
Searching the forums identifies this as having been a problem with other phones models (HTC and Motorola) after firmware updates, but I don't think that can be the issue here. Anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions as to cause or fix?
When I first got my Eris I think I used to get App update notifications. Lately I don't get them, the only way to check for app updates is to go to the market.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI thought there was a way to set the Droid to "automatically" download and install updates to apps that were on the phone.I currently have to go into the Market app, click on Menu -> Downloads and see if any are marked 'Update Available' and update each one.Is there a way to automate this or at least get a pop-up notification that an update is available?

When I turned my phone on this morning, I had to do some update (I'm guessing this is the 2.2?)
Well now, I'm not getting any sound when I have an incoming text. I'll get it maybe once in a GREAT while.
Anyone else? Bueller? How long should I wait before I just bite the bullet and force install?

View 7 Replies View RelatedTurned on my phone this morning and besides getting emails I had an update notification. I used the advanced task killer before I actually clicked on anything and the update disappeared on me. I know, shouldnt have done that, just force of habbit when I first turn on the phone everyday. Anyhow, I re-booted my phone thinking it might come back and it didnt. I then checked for system updates on the phone and it said there werent any. Just checking to see if anyone else has ever had something like this happen to them.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI can open gmail and then it goes back to the home screen, when I delete an app I suddenly get a notification that an app has an update (EVERY TIME I delete an app). My weather widget was reading 32 degrees all day yesterday and I noticed that the settings were changed to celcius. What really sucks is I am in the middle of buying a house and I email back and forth with the lender on my phone. Oh and the battery never got any better I can barely get 4hrs out of it. I really like the phone and I hate to return the darn thing.
