This involves a custom layout in the native notification (remoteviews) , so it is needed to modify you favorite plugin

Android custom notification layout with RemoteViews

In case of this plugin: https://github.com/phonegap-build/PushPlugin

  1. Modify GCMIntentService.java, particulary NotificationCompat.Builder setContent with a the custom View. This custom view can be loaded from xml or instatiated by code: How to create a RelativeLayout programmatically with two buttons one on top of the other?

Example of a custom builder: Create custom notification, android

  1. Change the params for the plugin or parse payload message to separate lines

  • And if you use .Net instead of Java ? – Tito Mar 13 '15 at 15:21

Path: \platforms\android\src\com\plugin\gcm

Filename: GCMIntentService.java

String message = extras.getString("message");
        if (message != null) {
            mBuilder.setContentText(message);
            mBuilder.setStyle(new NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle().bigText(message));//add this line

    This solution has no effect on the style of the push notification. It still appears as one line on Android devices. Do you know what could be the problem? Do I have to clear cache somewhere or rest plugin? – Eyad May 10 '16 at 17:28
