Notification disappearing if touched over it

I am building a notification which has ACCEPT and REJECT buttons but at the same time i also wants to open the activity when user touches over the notification. But in my case only both buttons working and when touched over the other parts than buttons it just disappears.
My efforts :
Uri alarmSound = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);
String NOTIFICATION_CHANNEL_ID = "BizPhone Channel";
int id = (int) System.currentTimeMillis();
Intent intent = new Intent(context, incoming_service.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_PHONE_NUMBER, phoneNumber);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_MIME_TYPES, callType);
intent.putExtra("NOTE", Integer.toString(id));
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 1, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_ONE_SHOT);
NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O)
{
NotificationChannel notificationChannel = new NotificationChannel(NOTIFICATION_CHANNEL_ID, "BizPhone Notifications", NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_HIGH);
// Configure the notification channel.
notificationChannel.setDescription("BizPhone related notifications");
notificationChannel.enableLights(true);
notificationChannel.setLightColor(Color.RED);
notificationChannel.setVibrationPattern(new long[]{0, 1000, 500, 1000});
notificationChannel.enableVibration(true);
notificationManager.createNotificationChannel(notificationChannel);
}
// assuming your main activity
NotificationCompat.Builder notificationBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context, NOTIFICATION_CHANNEL_ID);
notificationBuilder.setAutoCancel(true)
.setCategory(Notification.CATEGORY_CALL)
.setOngoing(true)
.setWhen(System.currentTimeMillis())
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_call_black_24dp)
.setPriority(Notification.FLAG_INSISTENT)
.setContentTitle(phoneNumber)
.setContentText("Incoming Call")
.setSound(alarmSound)
.setContentIntent(pendingIntent)
.setContentInfo("Call");
Intent accept = new Intent(context, incoming_service.class);
accept.setAction(incoming_service.ANSWER);
accept.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
accept.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_PHONE_NUMBER, phoneNumber);
accept.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_MIME_TYPES, callType);
accept.putExtra("NOTE", Integer.toString(id));
PendingIntent pendingIntentYes = PendingIntent.getService(context, 10, accept, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
notificationBuilder.addAction(R.drawable.ic_permission_granted_24dp, "ACCEPT", pendingIntentYes);
Intent decline = new Intent(context, incoming_service.class);
decline.setAction(incoming_service.REJECT);
decline.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
decline.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_PHONE_NUMBER, phoneNumber);
decline.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_MIME_TYPES, callType);
decline.putExtra("NOTE", Integer.toString(id));
PendingIntent pendingIntentNo = PendingIntent.getService(context, 11, decline, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
notificationBuilder.addAction(R.drawable.ic_call_end_black_24dp, "REJECT", pendingIntentNo);
//notificationBuilder.build().flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
notificationManager.notify(id, notificationBuilder.build());
I have tried by looking at other threads too but it did not help. Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

Change
setAutoCancel(true)
to
setAutoCancel(false)

Just try to add :
PendingIntent contentIntent = builder
.getPendingIntent(0, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT
| PendingIntent.FLAG_ONE_SHOT);

I am answering my own question for future incoming users.
Why notification was disappearing on touch ( outside of 2 buttons but still on notification )
Because the base pendingintent was not a activity and it was a service. You can notice the code above. It should have been like :
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN, null);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_USER_ACTION | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
intent.setClass(context, CallActivity.class);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_PHONE_NUMBER, phoneNumber);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_MIME_TYPES, callType);
And the 2 buttons code and their pendingintent which is service was okay.

Restart the application when click on notification

I am using following code to open my application when clicking on Notification
mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager)
context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0,
i, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder =
new NotificationCompat.Builder(context)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher)
.setContentTitle(title)
.setDefaults(Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND)
.setStyle(new NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle()
.bigText(msg))
.setContentText(msg);
mBuilder.setContentIntent(contentIntent);
mNotificationManager.cancel(Constants.PUSH_ID);
mNotificationManager.notify(Constants.PUSH_ID, mBuilder.build());
The problem is, if the application is already running, it opens startup application after my current activity.
Intent x = new Intent(context, MainActivity.class);
i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
How can i close the old and start the application new one.

OK, i found a very cool and simple solution. I would just pass an extra boolean to my intent like i.putExtra("shouldRestart", true);
on my SplashActivity, i check
if(getIntent().getBooleanExtra("shouldRestart", false))
{
// we need to clear all activities from top
finishAffinity();
}

when i click notification open another my application

when i'm in my application,i click my application's notification open another my application,there are two same application on screen and btw i'm create notification from intent service
private void sendNotification(String msg, int msgdifferent) {
NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder =
new NotificationCompat.Builder(this)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher)
.setContentTitle("......")
.setContentText(msg).setContentInfo(msgdifferent + "");
Intent resultIntent = new Intent(this, MainActivity.class);
resultIntent.putExtra("Update", "YES");
TaskStackBuilder stackBuilder = TaskStackBuilder.create(this);
stackBuilder.addParentStack(MainActivity.class);
stackBuilder.addNextIntent(resultIntent);
PendingIntent resultPendingIntent =
stackBuilder.getPendingIntent(
0,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT
);
mBuilder.setContentIntent(resultPendingIntent);
NotificationManager mNotificationManager =
(NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
mNotificationManager.notify(NOTIFICATION_ID, mBuilder.build());
}

You mean every notification open new activity. So i think you forgot to add this steps as referred from documentation
android:excludeFromRecents="true"
android:launchMode="singleTask"
android:taskAffinity=""
and also set your resultIntent flags like
resultIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);

Clearing Notification from invoked Activity

I use this code to show a notification:
public static void ShowCustomNotification(Context context,String notificationTitle, String notificationMessage)
{
Uri soundUri = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);
// intent triggered, you can add other intent for other actions
Intent intent = new Intent(context, ResultActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("title", notificationTitle);
intent.putExtra("body", notificationMessage);
intent.setFlags(PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT
| Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
PendingIntent pIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, intent,PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
Notification mNotification = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context)
.setContentTitle(notificationTitle)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.office_girl)
.setContentIntent(pIntent)
.setSound(soundUri)
.build();
NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
notificationManager.notify(0, mNotification);
}
When the user clicks the Notification the activity ResultActivity.class is invoked and everything is fine.
My question is how can i clear the notification on the status bar when a user click on a "Close" button from inside ResultActivity? in case the user click "Back" i dont want to clear the notification.
Thanks.

NotificationManager mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
mNotificationManager.cancel(YOUR_NOTIFICATION_ID);

Notification onClick

I have successfully created a notification thanks to my other question, using NotificationCompat. I want to now just change what the notification does onClick. I'd really just like to have an alert dialog pop up (I've seen some app's do it) but everytime I click it, I just have my activity show up. Any ideas?
The notification code:
Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(ctx, YourClass.class);
PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(ctx,
YOUR_PI_REQ_CODE, notificationIntent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);
NotificationManager nm = (NotificationManager) ctx
.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
Resources res = ctx.getResources();
Notification.Builder builder = new Notification.Builder(ctx);
builder.setContentIntent(contentIntent)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.some_img)
.setLargeIcon(BitmapFactory.decodeResource(res, R.drawable.some_big_img))
.setTicker(res.getString(R.string.your_ticker))
.setWhen(System.currentTimeMillis())
.setAutoCancel(true)
.setContentTitle(res.getString(R.string.your_notif_title))
.setContentText(res.getString(R.string.your_notif_text));
Notification n = builder.build();
nm.notify(YOUR_NOTIF_ID, n);

You can't have a normal dialog without an activity. There are several possible workarounds though including styling the activity like a dialog and making the activity itself invisible and launching a dialog from it immediately.

You can probably use Remote Views to show a dialog without going to your app process.

you can set
Intent intent = new Intent(context, ReserveStatusActivity.class);
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, intent, 0);
NotificationManager notificationManager =
(NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
intent = new Intent(String.valueOf(PushActivity.class));
intent.putExtra("message", MESSAGE);
TaskStackBuilder stackBuilder = TaskStackBuilder.create(context);
stackBuilder.addParentStack(PushActivity.class);
stackBuilder.addNextIntent(intent);
// PendingIntent pendingIntent =
stackBuilder.getPendingIntent(0, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
PendingIntent resultPendingIntent = stackBuilder.getPendingIntent(
0, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
NotificationCompat.BigPictureStyle notiStyle = new
NotificationCompat.BigPictureStyle();
android.app.Notification notification = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context)
.setSmallIcon(R.mipmap.ic_launcher)
.setContentTitle(en_title)
.setContentText(en_alert)
.setAutoCancel(true)
.setNumber(++numMessages)
.setStyle(notiStyle)
//.setContentIntent(resultPendingIntent)
.setContentIntent(pendingIntent)
.build();
notification.sound = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);
notificationManager.notify(1000, notification);
