How to create an infinite loop

Question

Ok,I need to create an infinite loop on a countdown. My code is:

public void countdown() {
    if (x != null) {
        x.cancel();
    }

    x = new CountDownTimer(20000, 1000) {
        public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished) {
        }

        public void onFinish() {
            showNotification();
        }
    };
    x.start();
}

x is just a static countdowntimer variable. The problem is that I tried many methods to make the above code work,I mean when the countdown ends,and it displays that notification,it should start again and so on....but I can't find a way to do it.

Hope this will help you.

public void countdown(){
    if (x != null) {
        x.cancel();
    }
    x = new CountDownTimer(20000, 1000) {
       public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished) {
        }
       public void onFinish() {
           showNotification();
            x.start();
        }
    };
 }
