Question

I want a icon for a running service, I know that there is android:icon… in the services tag but I want the icon the whole in the status bar like the icon for bluetooth

Is that possible?

thanks

EDIT:

the thing with the flag and the notification is almost what I meant, its a notification which you can’t delete but I meant an icon for a running service like bluetooth in the statusbar on the right of the phone not left is that possible?

Answer 1

you should create Status Bar Notifications with FLAG_ONGOING_EVENT/FLAG_NO_CLEAR flag

EDIT:

you can’t change position of status bar notification icon from left to right(at least on devices with stock ROM)
