Hi Torbjørn and thanks for taking me over. I am sorry for the late reply, but I have been on an exam-break too.

Hi Marry

Kenneth is currently on vacation, and I will handle your case in the mean time.

The Alert Notification Service is a good option if you want your device to show what is happening on the phone, such as an incoming phone call or text message, but if you are planning to send custom user defined notifications I would not recommend using ANS.

In this case it is a much better option to use the blinky example, as Kenneth mentioned earlier.

The Android blinky app does not show notifications, but we provide you the source code here so you can change the app to your requirements.

For information on how to implement notification in Android you can have a look at this article:

Best regards
Torbjørn

Hello. Is anyone there? 🙂

That would mean, that the phone (instead of the nrf dongle) would need to become the Alert Notification Service (ANS) server, if I understood correctly, right? 🙂

Hello Kenneth and thanks for your answer.

Ok, I will start with these 2 examples and come back with some other questions. But what about the notification tutorial? Is there some way to get notifications on the phone, instead of visualising them just with putty, on the computer?

Thanks!
