Just create a new notification with the new icon and use the same ID when creating the notification. It will replace the old notification and hence change the image in the notification.
And if you do not want to have so many icons in your drawable folder. Create a BitmapDrawable from string and then set it as the smallIcon.

Don't. Because setSmallIcon use int icon, not bitmap – soya666 Jan 03 '16 at 17:16
