Answer : below code will help you: String CHANNEL_ID="1234"; Uri soundUri = Uri.parse(ContentResolver.SCHEME_ANDROID_RESOURCE + "://"+ getApplicationContext().getPackageName() + "/" + R.raw.mysound); NotificationManager mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE); //For API 26+ you need to put some additional code like below: NotificationChannel mChannel; if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) { mChannel = new NotificationChannel(CHANNEL_ID, Utils.CHANNEL_NAME, NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH); mChannel.setLightColor(Color.GRAY); mChannel.enableLights(true); mChannel.setDescription(Utils.CHANNEL_SIREN_DESCRIPTION); AudioAttributes audioAttributes = new AudioAttributes.Builder() .setContentType(AudioAttributes.CONTENT_TYPE_SONIFICATIO...

Answer : The solution posted by @Aracem is valid but, doesn't work if you try change also the background color of the status bar. In my case I do it in the following way. To enable windowLightStatusBar(programatically,inside a Utils class for example): public static void setLightStatusBar(View view,Activity activity){ if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) { int flags = view.getSystemUiVisibility(); flags |= View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LIGHT_STATUS_BAR; view.setSystemUiVisibility(flags); activity.getWindow().setStatusBarColor(Color.WHITE); } } To restore to StatusBar to the previous state: public static void clearLightStatusBar(Activity activity) { if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) { Window window = activity.getWindow(); window.setStatusBarColor(ContextCompat .getColor(activity,R.color.colorPrimaryDa...

But if your app doesn't declare Camera permission using intent with action IMAGE_CAPTURE can launch Camera app without issue. The workaround would be check is the app has camera permission included in the manifest, if it's , request camera permission before launching intent. Here is the way to check if the permission is included in the manifest, doesn't matter the permission is granted or not. public boolean hasPermissionInManifest(Context context, String permissionName)...
