How to change the small icon?

[anonwins]

Hi,

can you give me a hint on how to change the small icon (white dot) in the notification?

That white dot is actually supposed to be the application's icon. I'm not sure why, but that white dot is only visible on Android 11. I've tested it on older versions (10, 8, 6) and the application's icon was showing currently.

The following line is responsible for setting up that icon:

media-notification/src/io/shreyash/medianotification/MediaNotification.java

Line 177 in 14ba70f

.setSmallIcon(activity.getApplicationInfo().icon)

I think this is caused by the small icon's background color. If it is set to transparent, perhaps it will be solved. Unfortunately, I couldn't find proper code that builds. So it's up to you. What I have is:

	if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
	    notification.setColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.TRANSPARENT));
	}

Which results to "error: package R does not exist". Also, I read that getResources().getColor is deprecated.
