How to achieve push notification badge in android for all devices

Question

I want to display push notification badge in all devices like Samsung,Sony,Lg etc., I want to display notification badge like facebook native application. i did small research for that in my result Android relies on the Notification Center to give the user indication about incoming events. So technically, if your app already does that, you don't have to do anything else. but some devices have own framework badge receivers.

In sony

Intent intent = new Intent();

intent.setAction("com.sonyericsson.home.action.UPDATE_BADGE");
intent.putExtra("com.sonyericsson.home.intent.extra.badge.ACTIVITY_NAME", "com.yourdomain.yourapp.MainActivity");
intent.putExtra("com.sonyericsson.home.intent.extra.badge.SHOW_MESSAGE", true);
intent.putExtra("com.sonyericsson.home.intent.extra.badge.MESSAGE", "99");
intent.putExtra("com.sonyericsson.home.intent.extra.badge.PACKAGE_NAME", "com.yourdomain.yourapp");

sendBroadcast(intent);

In Samsung

Add the following permissions to your application's AndroidManifest.xml

uses-permission android:name="com.sec.android.provider.badge.permission.READ" 
uses-permission android:name="com.sec.android.provider.badge.permission.WRITE" 

To badge your icon with "1"

Context context = getApplicationContext();
if (Badge.isBadgingSupported(context)) {
    Badge badge = new Badge();
    badge.mPackage = context.getPackageName();
    badge.mClass = getClass().getName();
    badge.mBadgeCount = 1;
    badge.save(context);
}

Is there any other framework badge receivers code is available?
