Update notification vibrate/ringtone
alert, android, notificationmanager, notifications
Solution
Just tested this myself and the vibration/ringtones do fire off, even on an update.
UPDATE: Just an update, if you are using `NotificationCompat.Builder` or `Notification.Builder` you can set `setOnlyAlertOnce` to only sound the ringtone/vibrate once.
Problem
I am using the `NotificationManager` builder to show an alert in my app. I know that the first parameter for the `notify` method is an id and the framework will update the notification if it is already visible, but if I set the alert to play a ringtone or vibrate, does the ringtone/vibration also fire if an alert is updated? ``` NotificationCompat.Builder nb = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this); nb.setContentTitle("title"); nb.setContentText("message"); nb.setSmallIcon(getResources().getIdentifier("drawable/alert", null, packageName)); nb.setWhen(System.currentTimeMillis()); nb.setAutoCancel(true); nb.setTicker("message"); final Uri ringtone = Uri.parse(PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this).getString("ringtone", getString(R.string.settings_default_ringtone))); nb.setDefaults(Notification.DEFAULT_VIBRATE); nb.setSound(ringtone); nb.setDefaults(Notification.DEFAULT_LIGHTS); NotificationManager nm = (NotificationManager)getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE); final Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(this, Main.class); notificationIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); final PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, notificationIntent, 0); nb.setContentIntent(contentIntent); Notification notification = nb.getNotification(); nm.notify(0, notification); ```
