custom push notification sound not working in android (FCM)

Be informed we are trying to send push notification to a device with custom sound. The custom mp3 file (120 seconds) is stored in res/raw file. The notification is sent successfully, but the sound never plays out even after many tries. The code is as given below:
Update:Based on suggestion given in the comments, created a notificationchannel and set the sound in it, but still its not working. Worse, unable to build apk at all.
Uri soundUri= Uri.parse(ContentResolver.SCHEME_ANDROID_RESOURCE + "://" + BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID + "/" + R.raw.adhan);
NotificationCompat.Builder notificationBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this, MainActivity.asw_fcm_channel)
.setSmallIcon(R.mipmap.ic_launcher)
.setContentTitle(title)
.setContentText(message)
.setAutoCancel(true)
.setSound(soundUri)
.setContentIntent(pendingIntent);
Notification noti = notificationBuilder.build();
noti.flags = Notification.DEFAULT_LIGHTS | Notification.DEFAULT_VIBRATE | Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
NotificationChannel mChannel = new NotificationChannel("345",
"new",
NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH);
AudioAttributes attributes = new AudioAttributes.Builder()
.setUsage(AudioAttributes.USAGE_NOTIFICATION)
.build();
// Configure the notification channel.
mChannel.setDescription(message);
mChannel.enableLights(true);
mChannel.enableVibration(true);
mChannel.setSound(soundUri, attributes); // This is IMPORTANT
if (NotificationManager != null)
NotificationManager.createNotificationChannel(mChannel);
}
NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
notificationManager.notify(notification_id, notificationBuilder.build());
We are at loss as where we are going wrong. Please guide us as how we solve this issue.

Android Default Notification sound not working

I can see on MI phone android version 10. i am trying to create a simple notification with title and subtitle. notification also shows up but with no sound and no vibration.
PFB the code:
Intent intent = new Intent(this, MyActivity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0 /* Request code */, intent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_ONE_SHOT);
String channelId = getString(R.string.default_notification_channel_id);
NotificationCompat.Builder notificationBuilder =
new NotificationCompat.Builder(this, channelId)
.setContentTitle(title)
.setContentText(messageBody)
.setAutoCancel(true)
.setDefaults(Notification.DEFAULT_ALL)
.setPriority(NotificationCompat.PRIORITY_HIGH)
.setCategory(NotificationCompat.CATEGORY_CALL)
.setSound(Settings.System.DEFAULT_NOTIFICATION_URI)
.setContentIntent(pendingIntent);
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
notificationBuilder.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.app_icon_white);
notificationBuilder.setColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.theme_color));
} else {
notificationBuilder.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.app_icon_white);
}
NotificationManager notificationManager =
(NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
// Since android Oreo notification channel is needed.
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
NotificationChannel channel = new NotificationChannel(channelId,
"Channel human readable title",
NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH);
CharSequence name = getResources().getString(R.string.feroz_channel_name);
String description = getResources().getString(R.string.feroz_channel_description);
channel.enableLights(true);
channel.setLightColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.theme_color));
channel.enableVibration(true);
channel.setDescription(description);
notificationManager.createNotificationChannel(channel);
}
notificationManager.notify(77 /* ID of notification */, notificationBuilder.build());
I have vibration permission in Android Manifest. Along with no sound and no vibration. this notification is not visible when device is in locked state. Please suggest what i have missed in the code to achieve this scenario on android 10.

Android notification badge dot not showing for custom firebase push notification

I have implemented custom view for firebase push notification. For custom view we need to remove "notification" key from push Json so that it can be handled even when app is closed like below:
{
"data": {
"detail": {
}
},
"to": ""
}
For creating custom notification I used below code:
private void generateNotification(String title, String message, Intent intent) {
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
String channelId = getString(R.string.default_notification_channel_id);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, notificationCount, intent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);
/*
* Custom notification layout
* */
String notificationHeaderText = getResources().getString(R.string.app_name) + " \u2022 "
+ DateUtils.formatDateTime(this, System.currentTimeMillis(), DateUtils.FORMAT_SHOW_TIME);
RemoteViews collapsedView = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(), R.layout.view_collapsed_notification);
collapsedView.setTextViewText(R.id.timestamp, notificationHeaderText);
collapsedView.setTextViewText(R.id.content_title, title);
collapsedView.setTextViewText(R.id.content_text, message);
RemoteViews expandedView = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(), R.layout.view_expanded_notification);
expandedView.setTextViewText(R.id.timestamp, notificationHeaderText);
expandedView.setTextViewText(R.id.content_title, title);
expandedView.setTextViewText(R.id.notification_message, message);
Uri soundUri = Uri.parse(ContentResolver.SCHEME_ANDROID_RESOURCE + "://"+ getApplicationContext().getPackageName() + "/" + R.raw.footer_click);
NotificationCompat.Builder notificationBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this, channelId)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_inkclick_logo_colored)
.setSound(soundUri)
.setGroup(GROUP_KEY_INKCLICK)
.setAutoCancel(true)
.setGroupSummary(true)
.setCustomContentView(collapsedView)
.setCustomBigContentView(expandedView)
.setContentIntent(pendingIntent);
notificationBuilder.setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_HIGH);
NotificationManager manager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
if (manager != null) {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
NotificationChannel channel = new NotificationChannel(channelId,
getResources().getString(R.string.default_notification_channel_id), NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH);
channel.enableLights(true);
channel.setLightColor(Color.MAGENTA);
channel.setVibrationPattern(new long[]{0, 1000/*, 500, 1000*/});
channel.enableVibration(true);
channel.setShowBadge(true);
AudioAttributes audioAttributes = new AudioAttributes.Builder()
.setContentType(AudioAttributes.CONTENT_TYPE_SONIFICATION)
.setUsage(AudioAttributes.USAGE_NOTIFICATION)
.build();
channel.setSound(soundUri, audioAttributes);
manager.createNotificationChannel(channel);
}
manager.notify(0, notificationBuilder.build());
}
else {
manager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
if (manager != null) {
manager.notify(0, notificationBuilder.build());
}
}
notificationCount += 1;
}
I have added channel.setShowBadge(true); after reading the official notification badge documentation here as well as other answers on stackoverflow like this and this.
I have also tried uninstalling the app and restarting the device but the badge is not showing.
Device is running on API 28(Pie).

You can set style by adding below line
.setStyle(new NotificationCompat.DecoratedCustomViewStyle())
add this code
NotificationCompat.Builder notificationBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this, channelId)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_inkclick_logo_colored)
.setSound(soundUri)
.setGroup(GROUP_KEY_INKCLICK)
.setAutoCancel(true)
.setGroupSummary(true)
.setStyle(new NotificationCompat.DecoratedCustomViewStyle())
.setCustomContentView(collapsedView)
.setCustomBigContentView(expandedView)
.setContentIntent(pendingIntent);
notificationBuilder.setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_HIGH);

You can set the style of the Android notification badge like this:
.setStyle(new NotificationCompat.DecoratedCustomViewStyle())
The overall code can look like this:
NotificationCompat.Builder notificationBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this, channelId)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_inkclick_logo_colored)
.setSound(soundUri)
.setGroup(GROUP_KEY_INKCLICK)
.setAutoCancel(true)
.setGroupSummary(true)
.setCustomContentView(collapsedView)
.setCustomBigContentView(expandedView)
.setStyle(new NotificationCompat.DecoratedCustomViewStyle())
.setContentIntent(pendingIntent);
notificationBuilder.setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_HIGH);

You need to specify the title or text (setContentTitle or setContentText). Because Android SDK uses it to describe notification in the window which appears when you long-click to the app icon. I don't know why this is not specified in the documentation, but it works this way.

Notification setSound() doesn't seem to actually set a sound

I recently started coding my first android project including notifications (SDK 21 - Android 5)
Currently, I have a tiny little button, that creates a notification on click and sends it to the app itself. Sound foolish but the purpose is to test if a custom sound and vibrate pattern is used.
This is the notification that gets constructed on click:
Notification note = new Notification.Builder(this.requireContext(), "channel_id")
.setSmallIcon(R.mipmap.icon)
.setContentTitle("Title")
.setContentText("Text")
.setPriority(NotificationCompat.PRIORITY_HIGH)
.setCategory(NotificationCompat.CATEGORY_MESSAGE)
.setVibrate(new long[] {500, 500, 500, 500, 500})
.setSound(SettingsHandler.getRingtoneUri(this.requireContext())
.setContentIntent(anyIntent)
.setAutoCancel(true)
.build();
SettingsHandler is a helper class I created to handle settings. Like switching vibration on and off or picking a ringtone. getRingtoneUri() does the following:
public synchronized static Uri getRingtoneUri(Context context) {
SharedPreferences prefs = context.getSharedPreferences("table_name", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
return Uri.parse(prefs.getString("ringtone_uri_key", RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION).toString()));
}
When debugging this the result of getRingtoneUri is something like "content://media/internal/audio/media/31". This looks valid to me. However, in a later line, the sound property of the created notification is still null. Amy idea what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in forward.

try this:
Uri alarmSound = Uri.parse("android.resource://" + context.getPackageName() + "/raw/ding");
NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context, context.getString(R.string.checkout_channel));
mBuilder.setContentTitle(context.getString(R.string.passenger_name)).setContentText(context.getString(R.string.pit, name)).setSmallIcon(R.drawable.notification_icon).setSound(alarmSound);
Notification notification = mBuilder.build();
notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
String channelDescription = "Checkout Channel";
if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
AudioAttributes audioAttributes = new AudioAttributes.Builder()
.setContentType(AudioAttributes.CONTENT_TYPE_SONIFICATION)
.setUsage(AudioAttributes.USAGE_ALARM)
.build();
NotificationChannel notificationChannel = new NotificationChannel(context.getString(R.string.checkout_channel),
channelDescription, notifManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH);
notificationChannel.enableLights(true);
notificationChannel.setLightColor(Color.GREEN);
notificationChannel.setShowBadge(true);
notificationChannel.setSound(alarmSound, audioAttributes);
notificationChannel.setLockscreenVisibility(Notification.VISIBILITY_PUBLIC);
notificationManager.createNotificationChannel(notificationChannel);
}
notificationManager.notify(iUniqueId, notification);
You need to set the audioAttributes and create your notification channel. This works for me for all Android from 4.2 to 9

Not getting notification in Android Oreo when the app is not running

I am developing an app in which I am not getting notification when the app is not running in Android Oreo. When a push notification is received, the onMessageReceived method is getting called, but the notification is not showing in the notification bar. Whereas if the app is running (foreground or background) I get a notification in notification bar. public class MyFirebaseMessagingService extends FirebaseMessagingService {
private static final String TAG = "MyFirebaseMsgService";
#Override
public void onMessageReceived(RemoteMessage remoteMessage) {
RemoteMessage.Notification notification = remoteMessage.getNotification();
Intent intent = new Intent(this, ApplyAndInitiateMainActivity.class);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_ONE_SHOT);
String channelId = "100";
Uri defaultSoundUri = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);
NotificationCompat.Builder notificationBuilder =
new NotificationCompat.Builder(this,channelId)
.setLargeIcon(bitmap)
.setSmallIcon(R.image_new)
.setContentTitle(title)
.setContentText(message)
.setAutoCancel(true)
.setWhen(remoteMessage.getSentTime())
.setSound(defaultSoundUri)
.setContentIntent(pendingIntent)
.setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_HIGH)
.addAction(0,"Apply LEAVE",pendingIntent)
.setStyle(new NotificationCompat.BigPictureStyle().bigPicture(bitmap).setSummaryText(message).bigLargeIcon(null));
NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
// Since android Oreo notification channel is needed.
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
NotificationChannel channel = new NotificationChannel(channelId, "Channel human readable title", NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_DEFAULT);
notificationManager.createNotificationChannel(channel);
}
notificationManager.notify(0, notificationBuilder.build());
}
}

Create your notification channel before creating notification:
String channelId = "100";
// Since android Oreo notification channel is needed.
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
NotificationChannel channel = new NotificationChannel(channelId, "Channel human readable title", NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_DEFAULT);
notificationManager.createNotificationChannel(channel);
}
Uri defaultSoundUri = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);
NotificationCompat.Builder notificationBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this, channelId)
.setLargeIcon(bitmap)
.setSmallIcon(R.image_new)
.setContentTitle(title)
.setContentText(message)
.setAutoCancel(true)
.setWhen(remoteMessage.getSentTime())
.setSound(defaultSoundUri)
.setContentIntent(pendingIntent)
.setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_HIGH)
.addAction(0,"Apply LEAVE",pendingIntent)
.setStyle(new NotificationCompat.BigPictureStyle().bigPicture(bitmap).setSummaryText(message).bigLargeIcon(null));
