Android 2.3 Notification custom view with ToggleButton

I'm programming Android 2.3 (API 10) application.
I've managed to create a custom view to my Notification object with ImageView and TextView.
I want to add to my Notification a ToggleButton (Kind of like the toggle button exists in the phone call options in the notification when you're in a middle of a phone call with "Speaker" and "Mute" Toggle buttons).
Every time i'm trying to do so - my application's crash with the following error:
08-15 00:15:55.370: E/AndroidRuntime(17000): FATAL EXCEPTION: main

Any idea how can i make it work ?

Usually bad notification error occurs during notification building process;
when you try to include views which are not ought to be used in notification(Here is the reference to the video where it is mentioned "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ToUR9i4Smfw").
Conclusion:
Remove ToggleButton from custom layout;
try to use ImageButton instead.

It sound like you might be trying to use getResources() before they are technically ready.
If you have this:
String APP_ID = getResources().getString(R.string.APP_ID);
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
...
}
Do this instead:
String APP_ID;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
APP_ID = getResources().getString(R.string.APP_ID);
...
}

You're trying to initialize a member variable where the initialization is using this as Context. In this case it's the getResources() call. You can only use the Activity as a Context in onCreate() or later in the activity lifecycle.
Specifically (from question comments), change this:
String APP_ID = getResources().getString(R.string.APP_ID);
to something like:
String APP_ID;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
APP_ID = getResources().getString(R.string.APP_ID);

LogCATError while starting new activities

My problem is in starting new activities.
I have ListView, items of it are defined from string-array by this code:
listBanksUA = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.list_banks_ua);
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String(this,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,listBanksUA));
List is defined in layout as:
<ListView android:id="#+id/list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:drawSelectorOnTop="false"/>
So, I'd like to start new activity after click on item of ListView. Sure, I have created new XML-layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<ListView
android:id="#+id/listRegions"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:drawSelectorOnTop="false"/>
</LinearLayout>
and Java-class for it: ListRegionsActivity.class.
In my first Activity I use the follow code to start new Activity:
#Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id)
{
startActivity(new Intent(MainActivity.this,ListRegionsActivity.class));
}
and after clicking in started application I'm getting an error, that my application has been closed with advice to try again. Sadness...
So, really I'll be glad for any help for me.
BTW: of course, I added new activity to manifest file.
UPD: my LogCAT with Error flag

UPD: the problem is solved. The reason was in incorrect mistake in opening avtivity - setContentView should be deleted.

Since you did not showed us the LogCat trace, I can do the guess.
Try this in the ListView click listener
MainActivity.this.startActivity(new Intent(MainActivity.this,ListRegionsActivity.class))
And dont forget to add the new activity in your manifest.

Check you're not importing android.R in your app instead of your.package.R
