How to set notification with custom sound in android

Question

I copied the mp3 (kalimba.mp3) file into the raw folder in the res folder. But when the notification is triggered it produces the default sound.

Answer 1

notification.sound = Uri.parse("android.resource://" + getPackageName() + "/" + R.raw.notifysnd);
notification.defaults = Notification.DEFAULT_LIGHTS | Notification.DEFAULT_VIBRATE;

if defined DEFAULT_SOUND, then the default sound overrides any sound

Answer 2

R.raw.kalimba is an integer resource ID; you want the name of the sound resource in that Uri. So try:

notification.sound = Uri.parse(ContentResolver.SCHEME_ANDROID_RESOURCE
        + "://" + getPackageName() + "/raw/kalimba");

Answer 3

You should replace this line:

notification.sound = Uri.parse("android.resource://com.example.serviceproject/" + R.raw.kalimba);

with this:

notification.setSound(Uri.parse(ContentResolver.SCHEME_ANDROID_RESOURCE + "://" + getPackageName() + "/raw/kalimba"));

or in some cases:

notification.sound = Uri.parse(ContentResolver.SCHEME_ANDROID_RESOURCE + "://" + getPackageName() + "/raw/kalimba");

Answer 4

Try this:

Uri sound = Uri.parse("android.resource://" + context.getPackageName() + "/raw/notifysnd);
notification.setSound(sound);

I make this static function in HelperClass.java

    public static void givenotification(Context context,String message) {
         NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);

         Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(context, DesireActivity.class);
         PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, notificationIntent, 0);

         Notification notification = new Notification();
         NotificationCompat.Builder builder;
         builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context);

         notification = builder.setContentIntent(pendingIntent)
            .setSmallIcon(R.mipmap.ic_launcher)
            .setTicker(context.getString(R.string.app_name)).setWhen(System.currentTimeMillis())
            .setAutoCancel(true).setContentTitle(context.getString(R.string.app_name))
            .setContentText(message).build();
         notification.sound = Uri.parse("android.resource://" + context.getPackageName() + "/" + R.raw.kalimba);
         notificationManager.notify(1, notification);
     }

Then any Activity like in MainActivity HelperClass.givenotification(MainActivity.this,"Your Notification Message"); OR in fragment HelperClass.givenotification(getActivity(),"Your Notification Message");

Hope this help someone.

I have implemented this way to set custom Notification sound in my app.

  int notificationID=001;
        NotificationManager mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);

        NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this);

        mBuilder.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.room);
        mBuilder.setContentTitle("Room Rent , Pay Room Rent");
        mBuilder.setContentText("Hi, Its time to pay your Room Rent!");
        mBuilder.setAutoCancel(true);
        mBuilder.setColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.colorViolet));
        mBuilder.setSound(Uri.parse("android.resource://com.roommanagement.app/" + R.raw.notification_sound));

        if (mNotificationManager!=null){
            mNotificationManager.notify(notificationID, mBuilder.build());
        }

Hop this will help you.Thanks...
