Answer 1

Yes, the android notification don't use \n in default style, you should set a text in normal mode (single line) but if you want to use \n in your text, the NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle() should set,

NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder =
        new NotificationCompat.Builder(thisActivity)
                .setSmallIcon(resourceDrowable)
                .setContentTitle("My notification")
                .setContentText("Hello World")
                .setAutoCancel(true)
                .setStyle(new NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle().bigText("My\nMessage"));
