I've checked the following question, As seen i understood that i can only use compatible views with RemoteViews, i'm using a Linear and ImageView which are working, every time i trigger the Notification method, i get the " Couldn't expand Remoteviews " error .
My layout is as the following :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:padding="5dp">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="5dp">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="@+id/AppIcon1" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="5dp">

android:id="@+id/AppIcon2" />

}
What's the fix ? And i've seen in the questions that i can make a ListView in a notification, What's the way ? as there is no official doc or guide to do it .
