and Notification:

private Notification ongoingNotification() {
    Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),
   PlayerService.class);
    intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
    int icon = R.mipmap.ic_notification;
    Notification notification = new Notification(icon, "", 0);

    String title = "meuplayer";
    String msg = "Tocando. Clique para abrir.";

    if (currentStreamBeingPlayed != null) {
        msg = currentStreamBeingPlayed.getTitle();
    }

    PendingIntent previousSongPendingIntent = createPendingIntent(PlayerUI.PREVIOUS_SONG);
    PendingIntent pausePendingIntent = createPendingIntent(PlayerService.PAUSE);
    PendingIntent nextSongPendingIntent = createPendingIntent(PlayerUI.NEXT_SONG);
    PendingIntent playPendingIntent = createPendingIntent(PlayerService.PLAY);
    PendingIntent PlayerNotificationPendingIntent = createPendingIntent(PlayerService.PLAYERNOTIFICATION);

    NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(getApplicationContext());
    RemoteViews contentView = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(), R.layout.player_notification);
    mBuilder.setContent(contentView);
    contentView.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.onGoingNotification, PlayerNotificationPendingIntent);
    contentView.setTextViewText(R.id.title_notification, title);
    contentView.setTextViewText(R.id.sub_title, msg);
    if (isPlayingNow) {
        contentView.setImageViewResource(R.id.Play_pause, R.mipmap.pause);
        contentView.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.Play_pause, pausePendingIntent);
    } else {
        contentView.setImageViewResource(R.id.Play_pause, R.mipmap.play);
        contentView.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.Play_pause, playPendingIntent);
    }
    contentView.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.next, previousSongPendingIntent);
    contentView.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.previous, nextSongPendingIntent);


    if (currentStreamBeingPlayed != null && currentStreamBeingPlayed.getPicture() != null) {
        try {
            URL urlPicture = new URL(currentStreamBeingPlayed.getPicture());
            Bitmap largeIcon = ImageHandler.decodeURLstreamToBitmap(urlPicture, getResources().getDimensionPixelSize(android.R.dimen.notification_large_icon_width), getResources().getDimensionPixelSize(android.R.dimen.notification_large_icon_height));
            contentView.setImageViewBitmap(R.id.imageView, largeIcon);
        } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
        } catch (Resources.NotFoundException e) {
        } catch (IOException e) {
        }
    }
    notification.contentView = contentView;

    Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(this, PlayerUI.class);
    PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, notificationIntent, 0);
    notification.contentIntent = contentIntent;
    return notification;
}

private PendingIntent createPendingIntent(String type) {
    //Create an Intent for the BroadcastReceiver
    Intent intent = new Intent(this, PlayerOnGoingNotificationBroadcastReceiver.class);

    intent.setAction(type);

    //Create the PendingIntent
    PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);

    return pendingIntent;
}

Answer 1

shortly after:

mBuilder.setContent(contentView);

place:

notification.bigContentView = contentView;
