Hi all, I am currently looking at developing an application for the android environment. Before starting on my project I have been looking at the android developeres guide and going through the different things that I want to get working.
I have been looking at making notifications in the notification bar and I have two queries regarding this. The first question is I would like to make the trackball on my phone (HTC Hero) and any other phone with a trackball flash when the notification appears. I tried adding the line notification.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_LIGHTS; but this appears to only flash the small LED at the top of the phone and not the trackball. How would I go about flashing the trackball instead. Also the second question is about making and changing the icon of the notification. I have set up a drawable object and given it a HEX value to give me a rectangular block of colour, but this looks pointless and un-professional so instead want to have a proper icon. How would I go about changing this as I can't seem to find anything about this. Thanks for your help in this matter. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group. NEW!
