Set it to NEVER instead of ALWAYS.

Erel, but this is not solution.

I need the ALWAYS otherwiese the Network Connection to server will interrupt.

This is part of the solution. Set it to NEVER and create your own notification and call Service.StartForeground.

Hi Erel,

I have do that, but the next problem in this case is than, that ICON will not shows and the default text will shows only (Name of App)

Sub Service_Create
    Service.AutomaticForegroundMode = Service.AUTOMATIC_FOREGROUND_NEVER
    Dim n As Notification
    n.Initialize
    n.Icon = "icon"
    n.Vibrate = False
    n.Sound = False
    n.Light = False
    n.SetInfo("Hallo Welt", "Connected" & Variablen.Modul_Name,Vorlage_01)
    
    Service.StartForeground(1,n)
    lock.PartialLock
End Sub

Your notification should show. Maybe you are seeing a different notification created from a different service.
