Android :: Update Ongoing Notification Only When Notification Window Shown?
Jun 4, 2010
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.

So im just getting started with android development and i found my first head scratcher. I have an app that when opened makes a on going event notification. Then if i hit the home button the app falls from view and when i attempt to bring it back via clicking on the ongoing event notification its like opening a whole new app, then when i hit the back button the ongoing even goes away and it returns me to the original app window. How do i get the notification to take me to the original rather then opening a new instance.

I am trying to create a notification that will appear in the "ongoing" area of the notification bar (like WeatherBug).
Here is the code that I am using:
PendingIntent intent = PendingIntent.getActivity(lastContext, 0, notifyIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT | Notification.FLAG_ONGOING_EVENT | Notification.FLAG_NO_CLEAR)
From what I understand, FLAG_NO_CLEAR, should also prevent the notification from being cleared by pressing the Clear button, this is also not working.

1/I don't want to notify user if this one is already running my app in foreground,is it possible before create nofification to check if my app is not in front? 2/if app is in background, is it possible to bring last state in front? I know that Os can destroy some Activity, but is it possible to restore last state, don't start a new Intent? because if i start a new Intent and i push back, old Intent appear it's not very beautiful to have 2 identical intent launch...............

I've been playing around with Android development and one of the things I'd like to be able to do is dynamically create a background image for my windows, similar to the one below.This is from my BlackBerry app. It consists of three separate parts, the bottom right logo, the top left watermark, and the bottom right name. It works independent of screen size because the BlackBerry app just gets all three parts and generates an appropriately sized bitmap using the screen width and height.Since Android has quite a bit more screen resolution possibilities I need to be able to generate backgrounds on the fly like this. However, I have not found any way to get the height/width of the window in Android. I can get the screen resolution, but that includes the application title bar and the notification bar, which is unacceptable.I'd like to know how to get the size of my window, or screen resolution minus the title and notification bars. I think this might be possible using the dimensions of my layout managers but I cannot get the height/width of them in the onCreate method so I'm not sure what to do exactly.

Why I might have 2 of every sound listed on my phone? When I go to change ringtone or notification sounds there are 2 of every sound listed. Both options work, too.

So I use google voice (goolge voice number and google voicemail) and I have been for several months. No problems, then all of the sudden a voicemail notification from my regular voicemail (voice cassette tape) shows up in my notification bar. I can't get into my regular verizon voicemail and I can't clear the notification.

I just started seeing a weird icon that wasn't shown in the manual. It looks like a headset. Even after turning off Bluetooth and after powering the phone off, it still appears. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

My friends Droid with 2.2 displays a weird notification window whenever she gets text messages. When she gets a text, the notification window comes up with the message, the background picture is a nicely rendered white Android holding a phone up to his "ear". Across the top, it says something along the lines of "leslie2099 is 0.7 miles away. Chat Now!". I'm an HTC Hero user with Cyanogenmod 6, so I am reasonably familiar with Froyo, but I can't figure out what this is from. Any ideas?

Just got a new Android phone, my second after a brief stint with the G1 a year or so ago..
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?

I am displaying a notification icon which is dark gray. It looks fine on Nexus One, where the notification area is light gray and is almost invisible on HTC Desire (Sense UI - dark gray notification bar). Is there a way to overcome that? (The icon cannot be changed).The icon cannot be changed meaning" that I am using a custom set of icons which is a must for me.

So when I get texts, gmail, completed app downloads, etc I get notification icons at the top as usual. When I slide the notification bar down to reveal the nofications and click on an item, the notification screen doesn't hide back to the top of my phone -- it just stays open. I either have to hide it manually or I have to hit the back button, which sometimes exits the app I was trying to open. 2.1 never did this for me, it always hid when choosing an item. Anyone have a solution to this? I've done a factory reset after 2.2 btw. I've also searched support to see if there was a similar problem, no similar threads.

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.

I've factory reset my phone 3 times today for data problems and push email issues. Since the last time, I have a voicemail icon in my notification bar, clicking on it tells me to call my GV number to hear 3 messages. I cleared the messages in the GV app,but the notification wont go away. It has no Clear button to dismiss. I've rebooted the phone, tried calling the number, but have not yet tried throwing it against the wall. That's next. Any ideas to help calm my OCD by dismissing this notification are appreciated.Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk

There 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...

Yesterday 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?

I'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.
