Android notification bigcontentview : different layout on expand and collepse

Question

I have some problem with expand and collapse of notification bigcontentview.

When notification is top of the list of notification , there have expand view as stated in android document, but when notification is not on the top of the list of notification, notification view become weird. I show you in the figure

(Sorry for hiding content in image)

(1. collapsed view)

In this notification contents become invisible

(2. Expanded view)

after expand it all content visible, i know that this is the correct behavior.

but I want to change layout as notification get collapsed. so i can change the layout and there content visible

Is there any solution of it? how can i get the notification is collapsed or expanded ? and how can i change layout of it during expand and collapse? So all content visible.

Is there any way to add layout differently for expanded and collapsed notification?

My code is below :

@SuppressLint("NewApi")
    public void updateNotification(String text) {

        PendingIntent pendingIntent = null;
        PendingIntent pendingIntent1 = null;
        PendingIntent pendingIntent2 = null;
        PendingIntent pendingIntent3 = null;
        PendingIntent pendingIntent4 = null;
        PendingIntent pendingIntent5 = null;

        if (mRemoteViews == null) {
            Log.d("LOG", "mRemoteViews is null");
            if (Base.sharedPref.getBoolean("firsttimenotifiation", false)) {

                mRemoteViews = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(),
                        R.layout.custom_notification);
            } else {
                if (isCurrentBuildabove16()) {
                    mRemoteViews = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(),
                            R.layout.customizenotification);
                } else {
                    mRemoteViews = new RemoteViews(getPackageName(),
                            R.layout.customnotification);
                }
            }
        } else {
            if (MusicList.MusicFrom != MusicList.FromNotification) {
            if (mState == State.Paused || mState == State.Stopped || mState == State.Stopappnotification) {


                try {
                    Log.e("LOG", "State.Paused || State.Stopped");
                    mRemoteViews.setImageViewResource(R.id.playpush,
                            R.drawable.playdetailfornoti);

                }catch (Exception e) {}
            } else if (mState == State.Playing) {

    }

Please Help Me Thanks in advance

I'm setting both big and normal view of notification at the same time, and it allows to switch between the two by expanding and collapsing it.

However there's another issue with big view: it flickering every time I update notification if I set big view..
