Android Question [SOLVED] Allowing NotificationListenerService

[lemonisdead]

Hello,
In the NotificationListener Service's example, we call ACTION_NOTIFICATION_LISTENER_SETTINGS to display an activity and manually allow the service receiving the notifications. But on some devices, that activity does not exist (which is documented at developer.android and specified as added in API level 22).



But, the NotificationListenerService was added in API level 18.

So, do you know how we could allow the setting on devices without ACTION_NOTIFICATION_LISTENER_SETTINGS activity, please ?
I have checked with p.GetSettings("enabled_notification_listeners") and it is not enabled by default.

Thanks

I don't think that there is any other way. You can catch this error and show a message to the user that explains how to reach that page.

Hi Erel, I have finished mi app and all is working, now i need to send to this app a notification from an other device.
Even if the app is not active. I do not now how to do that, but i think to do it in this way;
1. first it is needed to present the app to the other device.
2. When the other device mast send a message it needs this info to send something.
It is the same way how Whats-app it is doing.
3. I like to send a small icon and a text string but i need have the possibility to control the text string
in mi program.
Sorry to disturb you.....but I still can not find the things I do not know YET.
can you do something for me or to send mi something to learn.
