Rating: Show notification when the app is closed.

Question

Rating: Show notification when the app is closed.

How to show notification when app is closed with api rating. Since it has a default BeaconService, we need to implement it at the app level to show a notification when the app is closed. So for this I am trying the following code.

Activity: -

public class Dashboard extends Activity {
private static final String TAG = Dashboard.class.getSimpleName();
ConnectionDetector cDetector;
private static final int NOTIFICATION_ID = 123;
private NotificationManager notificationManager;
JSONParser jParser = new JSONParser();

AlertDialogManager alert;
private static final String URL_NOTIFICATIONS = "";
ArrayList<NameValuePair> pairs;
private static final int REQUEST_ENABLE_BT = 1234;
private ProgressDialog pDialog;
private BeaconManager bManager;
// private Beacon beacon;
private Region region = new Region("regionID", null, null, null);
List<Beacon> beaconList;

BroadcastReceiver receiver;
Intent serviceIntent;



@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.notify_demo);
    getActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
    cDetector = new ConnectionDetector(getApplicationContext());

    // check Internet connection
    if (!cDetector.isConnectingToInternet()) {
        alert.showAlertDialog(this, "Internet Connection Error",
                "Please connect to working internet connection", false);

        return;
    }

    bManager = new BeaconManager(getApplicationContext());
    bManager.setRangingListener(new BeaconManager.RangingListener() {
        @Override
        public void onBeaconsDiscovered(Region region,
                final List<Beacon> beacons) {
            // Note that results are not delivered on UI thread.
            runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                @Override
                public void run() {
                    // Note that beacons reported here are already sorted by
                    // estimated distance between device and beacon.
                    getActionBar().setSubtitle(
                            "Found beacons: " + beacons.size());

                }
            });
        }
    });
    Log.i("BeaconsList", "beaconslist" + beaconList);
    // region = new Region("regionId", ((Beacon)
    // beaconList).getProximityUUID(),
    // ((Beacon) beaconList).getMajor(),
    // ((Beacon) beaconList).getMinor());
    notificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);

    // Default values are 5s of scanning and 25s of waiting time to save CPU
    // cycles.In order for this demo to be more responsive and immediate we
    // lower down those values.
    bManager.setBackgroundScanPeriod(TimeUnit.SECONDS.toMillis(1), 0);



    bManager.setMonitoringListener(new MonitoringListener() {

        @Override
        public void onEnteredRegion(Region arg0, List<Beacon> arg1) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            postNotification("Welcome to Walmart !Today there is 10% off on all Goods.");
            // new GetNotificationData().execute();
        }

        @Override
        public void onExitedRegion(Region arg0) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            postNotification("Exit region");
        }
    });
}

@Override
protected void onStart() {
    super.onStart();

    // Check if device supports Bluetooth Low Energy.
    if (!bManager.hasBluetooth()) {
        Toast.makeText(this, "Device does not have Bluetooth Low Energy",
                Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        return;
    }

    // If Bluetooth is not enabled, let user enable it.
    if (!bManager.isBluetoothEnabled()) {
        Intent enableBtIntent = new Intent(
                BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_REQUEST_ENABLE);
        startActivityForResult(enableBtIntent, REQUEST_ENABLE_BT);
    } else {
        connectToService();
    }
}

@Override

    try {
        bManager.stopRanging(region);
    } catch (RemoteException e) {
        Log.d(TAG, "Error while stopping ranging", e);
    }

    super.onStop();

                        Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                Log.e(TAG, "Cannot start ranging", e);
            }
        }
    });
