I am trying to make my music player service run in the foreground using Startforeground. So far I have no indication that I have succeeded, since I don't see any notification. Questions I have:
Where should the Service.Startforeground statement be included - in the Service module "Service_Create"? Or the Service module "Service_Start"?
My code looks like this:
The Icon is a png icon that is displays fine for the application in the device applications menu. It's located in the objects/res/drawable folder. The service is started from a running activity and is certainly running.
Any help appreciated

My code looks like this:
B4X:
Sub Process_Globals
'These global variables will be declared once when the application starts.
'These variables can be accessed from all modules.
Dim bPausedByPhone As Boolean
Dim MPP As MediaPlayer
Dim lstTracks As List
Dim PE As PhoneEvents
Dim PhoneNumber As PhoneId
Dim nNotify As Notification
End Sub
Sub Service_Create
MPP.Initialize2("MPP")
lstTracks.Initialize
PE.InitializeWithPhoneState("PE", PhoneNumber)
nNotify.Initialize
nNotify.Icon = "icon.png"
nNotify.SetInfo("Music Player", "Tap to open player.", TMM_Run)
nNotify.Sound=False
nNotify.Vibrate=False
nNotify.Light=False
nNotify.OnGoingEvent=True
Service.StartForeground(1,nNotify)
End Sub
Sub Service_Start (StartingIntent As Intent)
' Start the Player
End SubAny help appreciated
