Question
I understand that it's possible. At least I see that various applications used to put in notification tray their icons (e.g. Skype).
What about my application? What should I do to put my icon or message in notification bar?
Solution
You specify the UI information and actions for a notification in a
NotificationCompat.Builder
object. To create the notification itself, you callNotificationCompat.Builder.build()
, which returns aNotification
object containing your specifications. To issue the notification, you pass theNotification
object to the system by callingNotificationManager.notify()
...

NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager)
getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
Intent intent = new Intent(this, EndActivity.class);
PendingIntent pIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, (int) System.currentTimeMillis(), intent, 0);
// build notification
// the addAction re-use the same intent to keep the example short
Notification n = new Notification.Builder(this)
.setContentTitle("My message")
.setContentText("Subject")
