Android notification large icon, is there a way to remove the smaller icon on the bottom right?

Question

I have a notification that displays a largeicon.

Is there any way to remove the smaller icon from honeycomb and above devices from this view?

Obviously still keeping the small icon for the top status bar

   NotificationCompat.Builder builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context)


            // Set required fields, including the small icon, the
            // notification title, and text.
            .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_notify_status_new)
            .setContentTitle(title)
            .setContentText(text)


            // All fields below this line are optional.

            // Use a default priority (recognized on devices running Android
            // 4.1 or later)
            .setPriority(NotificationCompat.PRIORITY_DEFAULT)

            // Provide a large icon, shown with the notification in the
            // notification drawer on devices running Android 3.0 or later.
            .setLargeIcon(picture)

            .setContentIntent(
                    PendingIntent.getActivity(
                            context,
                            0,
                            notiIntent,
                            PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT)
            );


    builder = getNotiSettings(builder);
    notify(context, builder.build());

Add this code after you build the notification.

   if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
        int smallIconViewId = getResources().getIdentifier("right_icon", "id", android.R.class.getPackage().getName());

        if (smallIconViewId != 0) {
            if (notif.contentIntent != null)
                notif.contentView.setViewVisibility(smallIconViewId, View.INVISIBLE);

            if (notif.headsUpContentView != null)
                notif.headsUpContentView.setViewVisibility(smallIconViewId, View.INVISIBLE);

            if (notif.bigContentView != null)
                notif.bigContentView.setViewVisibility(smallIconViewId, View.INVISIBLE);
        }
    }

where "notif" is your built notification,
