Is it possible to display a custom icon (i.e., an icon which is a application resource) on a notification ? For sounds you can pass a Uri which makes possible to play custom sounds when notifying, but for the icon you only pass the resource id when creating the Notification object, which as I understand makes possible only to display the system icons (i.e., those on android.R).

I'm looking for a way to provide to the Notification Manager an icon which was not statically created, but rather created at run-time by the application.
I want to write a very simple weather application, which shows the current conditions icon and temperature at the notification bar, all packed into a small icon. So, I would like to know how to superimpose text onto an icon, and how to display the new icon in the notification bar, which, as you know, takes resource ID only.
Is it possible to hide just the notification icon without hiding the notification itself from pulldown?
Use case: Yahoo Weather app, the persistent notification in the pulldown is beautiful. I want it to always be there. However, the little temperature notification icon is pretty ugly, and I want to hide/disable it.
Using JB's "disable notifications" won't work since it will disable the entire notification, not just the icon.
Does anybody know how to add a notification without an icon in the status bar to the notification (just like Quick Settings)?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI made some Icons just for fun so I thought I'd share them. Plenty of different Androids in different colors and then you'll find plenty of random things. Also theres one called invisible, I like to keep my main screen as clean and simple as possible. So I used the invisible .png image to create an icon for gmail and texting, the 2 things I use the most. On my main screen I only have a search bar and the two invisible icons, everything else is on other pages. But anyways the invisible one is in there if anyone wants to use it. Use better cut or something like that to use these.
I'm using Nextheme.

I added some PAC-Man style icons, several different characters,and 2 androids and other randoms. I found these and made icons with them, I did not create them.
How can i do a notification in the status bar but without the expanded message in the "Notifications" window? i mean, i need just the icon, nothing more. there is a way to do that?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to show a notification icon in my application, but to take the icon from a different package.My application loads resources from external packages, and ,may show some information in the notification bar. I can take the title and text from the external package, but the icon can be specified only as resource ID, and Android extract the resource from the running context.
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe Notification API allows to set a drawable resource id for the icon of a notification. This drawable resource id is used to put the icon in the status bar and in the expanded window shade.This is a limitation if the icon images are to be represented by a Drawable or from a content provider at runtime. I propose that the Notification class adds fields (or methods) that would allow to set a Drawable or an Uri for the notification icon. This Drawable or Uri would then be used by the system notification service to put the icon in the status bar and in the expanded window shade.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to place an icon in the status bar when my service is started. I know how to send notifications to the status bar, but what I want is to show only an icon at the right, like the WIFI icon when WIFI is on, the antenna icon when "GoogleMaps" is on, etc. My service will send notifications to the status bar when needed, but also I want the user to know that the service is running placing an icon at the right. Is that possible?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm try to use a remote URL (like a favicon) for a Notification Icon, however the Constructor for a Notification only accepts a resource id (which is an int), as opposed to something sensical like a FileInputStream. How can I either, define at runtime a new resource id for a stream source, or download an icon to my resources and then dynamically get a resource id?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI wanted to create a notification without the icon in the status bar (the state that is not expanded). I tried the custom expanded view and set the icon for this view only. But it did not work. When I give 0 as icon to the constructor, the icon disappears but notification also does not appear in the expanded view.
Notification notification = new Notification(0, "", 0); I tried a lot of combinations but didn't come out with a solution. By the way, I know it is working because I saw this feature in some apps. Thanks.
New to Android development. I'm wondering if its possible to programmatically draw an icon to put in the notification bar? What if we want the icon to display some dynamic text for something like battery level? If anyone has a code sample it would be nice.

Tap ehere to call Voicemail. Sat, July 24, 2010." I tap it, it calls my voicemail, but it says I have no voicemail. The notification doesn't go away. Is there a way to "force" this notification to go away?

What I need is to have some communication between android phones, one to one, and I thought that sending SMS messages would solve the problem, but the SMS notification are not needed for that, maybe the WAP PUSH messages would better for that but I have no idea how to send them from android phone.
I have a MyTouch and a G1. I used to have an Iphone. On my Iphone, when I would get a new mail message it would light up a red number with how many emails there were on the MyTouch and G1 I get a little notification in the status bar at the top of the phone. My question is on the Iphone if the email notification was lit up with a number of emails that I had... and I went into my HOME computer (or any other computer) and read my email the next time the Iphone would go out to check for mail it would find zero there and turn off the notification. But on my MyTouch and G1, if it goes out to check email and there is none (because it was read elsewhere) it does NOT turn that notification off and it always looks like you have mail until you go into your email on the phone and check only to find none. Any way to fix this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed my usual apps after flashing Mr. X's stock+root-CIQ Tmo T989 rom.First app I usually download and run before anything is Adfree. Then Astro file manager to restore APKs. But I realized that this method left me with some older versions of the apps and they wouldn't have their market links. Yes, I could run Titanium Backup to fix them..
Anyways, suddenly I get a star icon on my notification bar. I look at it and it sends me to a website claiming I won a tablet and to chose. Code: URL...So I decided to wipe and flash again and go through the same process to see if perhaps catch who's the culprit..
It happens again this time with a plus icon..The star icon has happened twice on different occasions, only in the last week, and after installing a recent update to Adfree.
