What's wrong with my code - Notification - no sound no vibrate

Question

I seem to have a problem with my code. I have created a test activity, just to see what\'s wrong, still I can\'t.

public class test extends Activity {
/** Called         


        

Answer 1

This...

notification.flags |= Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND;
notification.flags |= Notification.DEFAULT_LIGHTS;
notification.flags |= Notification.DEFAULT_VIBRATE;

should be...

notification.defaults|= Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND;
notification.defaults|= Notification.DEFAULT_LIGHTS;
notification.defaults|= Notification.DEFAULT_VIBRATE;

Answer 2

For all default values (Sound, Vibrate & Light) in 1 line of code you can use:

notification.defaults = Notification.DEFAULT_ALL;

this is the equivalent of

notification.defaults|= Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND;
notification.defaults|= Notification.DEFAULT_LIGHTS;
notification.defaults|= Notification.DEFAULT_VIBRATE;

make sure you set permissions for vibrate in your Manifest

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE" />
