Hi Mark, I am facing problem in having single icon on status bar with number of particular notification occurrence.
ex: ICON(3)... i made below changes... the number is coming but again multiple icons are coming up. What I have to need to achieve single icon and number of notification on the status bar? if(count == 1) { pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(mContext, 0, intent, 0); n.setLatestEventInfo(mContext, title, caption, pendingIntent); } else { // intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP); // pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(mContext, 0,intent,PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT); // pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(mContext, 0, intent, penndingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT|); pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(mContext, 0, intent, 0); n.setLatestEventInfo(mContext, title, caption.replaceAll("%s", Integer.toString(count)),pendingIntent); } Thanks Gururaja B O On Feb 18, 6:17 pm, Mark Murphy <mmur...@commonsware.com> wrote: > Petroleum Nasby wrote: > > I need multiple notifications to appear in the dropdown notifier window. > > That's not a good idea in general. > > > But when I add multiple notifications, multiple icons appear in the > > status bar. > > Correct.
