How to use BigTextStyle and BigPictureStyle in setStyle notification?

I am trying to use both BigTextStyle and BigPictureStyle in my notification. But setStyle accepts only one style.

My code is:

NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle bigTextStyle = new NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle();
mBuilder.setVisibility(1);
mBuilder.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.app_icon1);
mBuilder.setContentTitle(title.toString());
bigTextStyle.bigText(description.toString());
//mBuilder.setSubText(bigText.toString());
if (bigImage != null && !bigImage.toString().equals("")) {
    mBuilder.setStyle(new NotificationCompat.BigPictureStyle().bigPicture(ImageUtil.getBitmapFromUrl(bigImage.toString())));
}
mBuilder.setStyle(bigTextStyle);
mBuilder.setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_MAX);
mBuilder.setContentIntent(contentIntent);

How can I use both ?. I want to show text (with line breaks) along with the image!

Sorry for the late reply. In fact, I also ran into the same problem and got a solution, so I think it can help another user.

Because we can’t use methods BigTextStyleand BigPictureStyle NotificationCompat.Builderwith what we can create CustomView.

We can use the method setCustomBigContentView(RemoteViews) NotificationCompat.Builderand create our own view to show the Big Image with large text.

, : -

PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, (int) System.currentTimeMillis(), i,
                PendingIntent.FLAG_ONE_SHOT);

        Uri defaultSoundUri = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);


        NotificationCompat.Builder notificationBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this);
        notificationBuilder.setContentTitle("YOUR_APP_NAME");
        notificationBuilder.setContentText(body);
        notificationBuilder.setTicker("YOUR_APP_NAME");
        notificationBuilder.setAutoCancel(true);
        notificationBuilder.setSound(defaultSoundUri);
        notificationBuilder.setCustomBigContentView(remoteView("YOUR_MESSAGE_TO_SHOW"));///IT IS THE MAIN METHOD WHICH WE USE TO INFLATE OR CREATE THE CUSTOM VIEW
        notificationBuilder.setSmallIcon(getNotificationIcon(notificationBuilder));
        notificationBuilder.setContentIntent(pendingIntent);

        NotificationManager notificationManager =
                (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);

        notificationManager.notify((int) System.currentTimeMillis(), notificationBuilder.build());

RemoteViews, setCustomBigContentView()

 private RemoteViews remoteView(String message)
    {
        RemoteViews views;
        views = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(), R.layout.YOUR_LAYOUT_HERE);
        views.setImageViewBitmap(R.id.YOUR_BIG_IMAGE_ID_FROM_LAYOUT, bitmap);
        views.setImageViewBitmap(R.id.YOUR_APP_ID_FROM_LAYOUT, BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.APP_ICON_OF_YOUR_APP));
        views.setTextViewText(R.id.YOUR_BIG_TEXTVIEW_ID_FROM_LAYOUT, message);
        return views;
    }
