Custom Push Notification Icon (from SDK v1.2.8)

With the launch of Android 5 (Lollipop), the notification icons are rendered differently in the notification bar at the top. By default, Smartech SDK uses the app’s icon for both, the small icon as well as the large icon.

To set a custom notification icon, add the following meta data entry in your AndroidManifest.xml.

<meta-data  
	android:name="SMT_LARGE_NOTIFICATION_ICON"  
	android:value="<large_notification_icon_name>"/> 
	
<meta-data  
	android:name="SMT_SMALL_NOTIFICATION_ICON"  
	android:value="<small_notification_icon_name>"/>

Note:

1. notification_icon_name is the name of your file in the drawable directory without the file extension.
2. The method NetcoreSDK.setPushIcon() is deprecated from SDK v1.2.8.
3. The notification icon being used should strictly be in .png format as per Google’s UI guidelines​. Preferable size for the push notification icons is mentioned below.
