Below is the code you can try, Its working.

public void notification(Context context,String title, String text) {
    Uri alarmSound = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION);
    NotificationCompat.Builder builder =
        new NotificationCompat.Builder(context)
        .setAutoCancel(true)
        .setSound(alarmSound)
        .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.appicon)
        .setContentTitle(title)
        .setContentText(text);

    Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(this,gps_get_data.class);
    notificationIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
    PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context,0,notificationIntent,                                           PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
    builder.setContentIntent(contentIntent);

    // Add as notification
    NotificationManager manager = (NotificationManager)context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
    manager.notify(0, builder.build());
}

Notification flags is a public member field. 

Notification notif = new Notification(R.drawable.icon, shortMsg,
                System.currentTimeMillis());
notif.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;

Flags go on the end when you define the Intent, like this:

PendingIntent contentIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(getApplicationContext(), 0, notifyIntent, Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL);
