Setting notification intent for multiple notifications

I have a method like this:

private void createNotification(String sender) {
        NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder =
                new NotificationCompat.Builder(this)
        .setContentTitle(sender+" sent you a message")
        .setAutoCancel(true)
        .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ribony_top_icon)
        .setContentText("Touch for reply")
        Intent resultIntent = new Intent(this, LoginActivity.class);
        resultIntent.putExtra("gcm_username",sender);
        resultIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
        PendingIntent resultPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, resultIntent,  PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
        mBuilder.setContentIntent(resultPendingIntent);
        NotificationManager mNotificationManager =
                (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
        mNotificationManager.notify(NotificationID.getID(sender), mBuilder.build());
}

I am creating 3 three notifications like this:

createNotification("test1");
createNotification("test2");
createNotification("test3");

Notifications are creating without any problem.But when I touch the notification test1 or test2 it is calling test3 I mean all notification intents sets to last intent.How can I resolve it ?

If the PendingIntent has the same operation, action, data, categories, components, and flags it will be replaced.

Depending on the situation i usually solve this by providing a unique request code either as static values (0,1,2) or the row id of the data I'm receiving from the DB.

PendingIntent.getActivity(context, MY_UNIQUE_VALUE , notificationIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_ONE_SHOT);

Then I use the same unique value for notify() as

mNotificationManager.notify(MY_UNIQUE_VALUE, notification);

Answer:Multiple notifications to the same activity

This happends because when you create your PendingIntent, the last argument indicate if has some other pending intent to the same activity, just gonna be updated instead create a new one. You only need change the last argument to some of the other flags or only put 0 to indicate don't need a special flag.

PendingIntent resultPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, resultIntent, 0);

EDIT

Add the message like a extra in the intent.

resultIntent.putExtra("message_extra", sender);

And in the Activity only recover the new extra to show the message.
