How to show notification in status bar?

android, android-notification-bar

Solution

There is some good documentation at android developer site and have a look at the NotificationManager doc's

Here you go, some code...:

NotificationManager mNotificationManager =
    (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
// mId allows you to update the notification later on.
mNotificationManager.notify(mId, n);

Note that it is also a goo idea to add your intend to the notification...

mBuilder.setContentIntent(resultPendingIntent);

To add sound you can use the `Notification.Builder.setSound()` method.

Problem

So i have created this notification in my activity ``` Notification n = new Notification.Builder(getApplicationContext()) .setContentTitle("New mail from " + sender) .setContentText(subject) .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.notification) .build(); ``` How can i now show it in status/notification bar along with the sound?
