Use this code anywhere.

Object sbservice = getSystemService( "statusbar" );
Class<?> statusbarManager = Class.forName( "android.app.StatusBarManager" );
Method expandMethod;
        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 17) {
            expandMethod = statusBarManager.getMethod("expandNotificationsPanel");
        } else {
            expandMethod = statusBarManager.getMethod("expand");
        }
expandMethod .invoke( sbservice );

Or to make it more short use this :

StatusBarManager statusBar = (StatusBarManager) getSystemService(STATUS_BAR_SERVICE);
statusBar.expand();

Permission is required in manifest.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.EXPAND_STATUS_BAR" />

In 4.3 is allowed only for system apps, so you can't do this. – Rajaraman Subramanian Nov 09 '13 at 13:49

"statusbar" is no longer a Context constant. – Tamim Attafi Mar 08 '19 at 15:19
