Android notifications from BroadcastReceiver are not displayed… here is a solution to the problem.
Android notifications from BroadcastReceiver are not displayed
I want to create a notification (from BroadcastReceiver – if there is a difference).
I don’t know why, it just didn’t show up!
private void showNotification(Context context, String text) {
NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder =
new NotificationCompat.Builder(context)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.notification_icon)
.setContentTitle(getString(R.string.app_name))
.setContentText(text)
.setAutoCancel(true);
NotificationManager mNotificationManager =
(NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
mNotificationManager.notify(0, mBuilder.build());
}
Solution
Create notifications from BroadcastReceiver – this is important!
You should override this string in your code:
NotificationManager mNotificationManager =
(NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
