I successfully created a custom rich notification for Android >= 3.0 that shows some text and an additional button. If you click the notification anywhere but on the button in the notification drop-down, the notification is dismissed, the drop-down closed and the specified Intent is launched as expected. If the dedicated button in the notification is clicked, a different Intent is successfully launched, but the drop-down keeps open (and the notification is still there, but I cancel it later, that is not the problem). The Intent launches an Activity which appears behind the notifications drop-down.
What I like to achieve is to keep all the current behavior as described, but also close the notification drop-down from the Intent the button launches - is this possible? Alternatively it would be enough if the Activity from the button Intent gains the window focus.
Here the code for the custom notification, if that helps:
Notification.Builder builder = new Notification.Builder(main)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.notification)
.setAutoCancel(true)
.setTicker(text)
.setContentIntent(...);
RemoteViews layout = new RemoteViews(
main.getPackageName(), R.layout.notification);
layout.setTextViewText(R.id.title, title);
layout.setTextViewText(R.id.text, text);
Intent i = new Intent(
"snooze", null, main, Snooze.class
);
i.putExtra(KEY_WIDGET_ID, widgetId);
layout.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.notification_zzz, PendingIntent.getActivity( main, 0, i, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT ));
builder.setContent(layout);
...
NotificationManager nm =
(NotificationManager)main.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
nm.notify(0, builder.getNotification());
