You could use the Cordova StatusBarNotification plugin or if you want a faster solution, you could simply add the following native Java code into your GCMIntentService.java onMessage() function:

String message = extras.getString("message");
String title = extras.getString("title");
Notification notif = new Notification(android.R.drawable.btn_star_big_on, message, System.currentTimeMillis() );
notif.flags = Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
notif.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND;
notif.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_VIBRATE;

Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(context, TestSampleApp.class);
notificationIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, notificationIntent, 0);

notif.setLatestEventInfo(context, title, message, contentIntent);
String ns = Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE;
NotificationManager mNotificationManager = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(ns);
mNotificationManager.notify(1, notif);

and dont forget to add following imports,

import android.app.Notification;
import android.app.NotificationManager;
import android.app.PendingIntent;

Be sure to replace YourActivityClassName.class with the name of your stub class that extends DroidGap. For instance, in the sample project it is called MainActivity.
