Question

int icon = R.drawable.icon4;        
CharSequence tickerText = "Hello"; // ticker-text
long when = System.currentTimeMillis();         
Context context = getApplicationContext();     
CharSequence contentTitle = "Hello";  
CharSequence contentText = "Hello";      
Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(this, Example.class);
PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, notificationIntent, 0);
Notification notification = new Notification(icon, tickerText, when);
notification.setLatestEventInfo(context, contentTitle, contentText, contentIntent);

This won’t work for me.

How could I create a notification that is clickable and goes to my app, but does not go away when clicked?

You should read the whole things not just a part, buddy. Please re-read carefully step-by-step.

// this
String ns = Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE;
NotificationManager mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(ns);

int icon = R.drawable.icon4;        
CharSequence tickerText = "Hello"; // ticker-text
long when = System.currentTimeMillis();         
Context context = getApplicationContext();     
CharSequence contentTitle = "Hello";  
CharSequence contentText = "Hello";      
Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(this, Example.class);
PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, notificationIntent, 0);
Notification notification = new Notification(icon, tickerText, when);
notification.setLatestEventInfo(context, contentTitle, contentText, contentIntent);

// and this
private static final int HELLO_ID = 1;
mNotificationManager.notify(HELLO_ID, notification);
