            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                //------------------------------------
                NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder =
                        new NotificationCompat.Builder(getApplicationContext())
                        .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.smsforward)
                        .setContentTitle("My notification")
                        .setContentText("Hello World!");

                NotificationManager mNotificationManager =
                    (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);               
                mNotificationManager.notify(12356, mBuilder.build());

Answer 1

Yeah, I have same thing on some devices. I have two 2.2 phones LG and HTC. LG works well but HTC throws IllegalArgumentException exception. Just add contentIntent to your notification. Some device have issue with parcelling notification and won't show it without contentIntent set.
