I have something in mind that i would like to integrate into my android app and I dont know where to start researching.
I want to create a notification bar just as androids in my app, and hold an activity in it( eg. a menu ) and for it to dropdown when the user pulls it down just like android.
I didnt know what to exactly research about, i tried notification bar in android app but to no success as all the links go to customizing your android notification bar.
Thank you for your time.

We try to create an app and would like to show some information for app on notification bar. I don't know how this is called on android, but some other apps have some widgets in the bar like this
I don't know how this is done and how this is called. We can not close the notification and it is still present there.
At the end we try to do this with a cordova app, but if we know how this is done native by android we can google for it and check if there is always a cordova plugin or if we have to implement this by our own.
I would like to make an Android app that shows an icon in the notification bar, however I don't want an actual notification to appear when you scroll down the bar.
The point is to show info only through a changing icon.
Is this possible to do, even if it requires some strange workaround?
I'll be glad if someone can help.
Thanks.
You can make a permanent notice is not removed swipe,
but only in the tray icon - rather impossible.
Persistent notification
Currently I want to make an app but I don't know what this is called , I mean the android term for it, it's definately not a spinner, but more into the notifications.
I want to make an app that I can interact with just like the music bar here that can play music, stop next song , etc.
Can someone help me or tell me what that method is and where can I get some tutorials for it?
It doesn't seem to be an ongoing notification. (It's not being under the Ongoing tag being the clue, otherwise I could be sure that this was the case)
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Notification.Builder.html#setOngoing%28boolean%29
It is probably a custom remote view

A quick google search will give you examples.
I'm doing an app that opens whatever applications that show up on status bar so that I can easily view one and go to next one, without having to press every notifications to go to each app. Is there any way I can get the list of apps that are on status bar, or is it not possible at all? Sorry if this has already been covered here and thanks in advance.
Latest OS version 4.3 introduced this capability in the API. Check out NotificationListenerService.
Feature update notes.
currently I'm working on an UI Replacement of Android, currently achived by writing a different launcher and different-styled apps. All's good so far, BUT: there is still the notification bar missing, means, I have no idea how to replace the notification bar.
The "new" notification bar shall show only generic informations like the clock and network state, similar to windows phone and ios, without NotificationManager-binding.
How can I achive this? I know that there are several notification bar replacement apps out there, like omega statusbar or statusbar+.
My idea was to make every app of my UI fullscreen and having its own NotificationBar-Instance, fed by a ContentProvider or Service. But if the user decides to use classic android apps, he also will see the generic notification bar, which isn't what I want.
Also it might be an idea to create a window on top the notification bar, but I have no clue either this is "the right way", nor if it is even possible to achive this in this way.
