The "task switcher" you refer to is not actually a task switcher. It just shows you a list of recently used apps, which may or may not be currently running. You may be able to do what you want by having the notification start a 'dummy' activity, which in turn brings your real activity to the front. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
