My activity looses the track of its notification when the application is removed from the recent apps My notification code :

builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this).setContentTitle("Started").setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher); targetIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), MainActivity.class); targetIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP); contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, targetIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT); builder.setContentIntent(contentIntent); notificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE); notificationManager.notify(1234, builder.build());

I have to restart the app after that and the notification doesn't open the activity any more.

Any leads on this ???

I want to override the function called when the app is cleared from the recent apps – gursahib.singh.sahni Feb 16 '15 at 13:29
what do you want exactly i am not understanding your problem? – Ramesh Feb 16 '15 at 13:32
my problem is that my activity is not showing up when i clear it from the recent apps. The linking between the app and the notification is cleared by the OS – gursahib.singh.sahni Feb 16 '15 at 13:34
Use FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT instead of FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT – user543 Feb 16 '15 at 13:35
i used that. no help – gursahib.singh.sahni Feb 16 '15 at 13:37
it works absolutely fine when i close the application. the problem comes when i close it from the recent apps, – gursahib.singh.sahni Feb 16 '15 at 13:38
Not yet, but I guess there applications supporting this functionality. – gursahib.singh.sahni Mar 08 '15 at 04:45
