Answer 1

This is my onRecieve from a Broadcast, it makes notifications on xperia, i havent had any device problems with it you can chop it up if it works for you

@Override
    public void onReceive(Context arg0, Intent arg1) {
        String key = LocationManager.KEY_PROXIMITY_ENTERING;

        Boolean entering = arg1.getBooleanExtra(key, false);
        String here = arg1.getExtras().getString("alert");
        String happy = arg1.getExtras().getString("type");



         NotificationManager notificationManager = 
                    (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);

                PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(arg0, 0, arg1, 0);        

                Notification notification = createNotification();

                notification.setLatestEventInfo(arg0, 
                    "Entering Proximity!", "You are approaching a " + here + " marker.", pendingIntent);

                notificationManager.notify(NOTIFICATION_ID, notification);


            }

            private Notification createNotification() {
                Notification notification = new Notification();

                notification.icon = R.drawable.icon;
                notification.when = System.currentTimeMillis();

                notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
                notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_SHOW_LIGHTS;

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

                notification.ledARGB = Color.WHITE;
                notification.ledOnMS = 1500;
                notification.ledOffMS = 1500;


                return notification;
            }
        //make actions



}
