On progress seekbar notification not showing in DownloadManager android

Question

I am downloading the file from webview. But it's not displaying the on going download notification similar to this when using DownloadManager. It just doing in background operation. How to display the status bar notification when downloading is in progress. I can able to get the downloaded file but how to display the on going process in notification?

I used "request.setNotificationVisibility(DownloadManager.Request.VISIBILITY_VISIBLE);" but it's not displaying the on going process. Please guide me what mistake I am doing.

Here is my code which I used.

mWebview.setDownloadListener(new DownloadListener() {
            @Override
            public void onDownloadStart(String url, String userAgent, String contentDisposition, String mimetype, long contentLength) {
                DownloadManager.Request request = new DownloadManager.Request(
                        Uri.parse(url));
                request.setMimeType("pdf");


                String cookies = CookieManager.getInstance().getCookie(url);


                request.addRequestHeader("cookie", cookies);


                request.addRequestHeader("User-Agent", userAgent);


                request.setDescription("Downloading file...");


                request.setTitle(URLUtil.guessFileName(url, contentDisposition,
                        "pdf"));


                request.allowScanningByMediaScanner();
                if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB) {
      //clueless why it's not working..    
    request.setNotificationVisibility(DownloadManager.Request.VISIBILITY_VISIBLE);
                } else {
                    request.setShowRunningNotification(true);
                }

                //request.setNotificationVisibility(DownloadManager.Request.VISIBILITY_VISIBLE_NOTIFY_COMPLETED);
                request.setDestinationInExternalPublicDir(
                        Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS, URLUtil.guessFileName(
                                url, contentDisposition, "pdf"));
                dm = (DownloadManager) getSystemService(DOWNLOAD_SERVICE);
                downloadReference = dm.enqueue(request);
                IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter(DownloadManager.ACTION_DOWNLOAD_COMPLETE);
                registerReceiver(downloadReceiver, filter);
            }
        });
    }

    private BroadcastReceiver downloadReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {

        @Override
        public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
            long referenceId = intent.getLongExtra(DownloadManager.EXTRA_DOWNLOAD_ID, -1);
            if (downloadReference == referenceId) {
                DownloadManager.Query q = new DownloadManager.Query();
                q.setFilterById(intent.getLongExtra(DownloadManager.EXTRA_DOWNLOAD_ID, -1));
                Cursor c = dm.query(q);

                if (c.moveToFirst()) {
                    int status = c.getInt(c.getColumnIndex(DownloadManager.COLUMN_STATUS));
                    if (status == DownloadManager.STATUS_SUCCESSFUL) {
                        // process download
                        String title = c.getString(c.getColumnIndex(DownloadManager.COLUMN_TITLE));
                        File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
                                + "/Download/" + title);//name here is the name of any string you want to pass to the method
                        if (!file.isDirectory())
                            file.mkdir();
                        //Intent testIntent = new Intent("com.adobe.reader");
                        Intent testIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
                        testIntent.setType("application/pdf");
                        //testIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
                        Uri uri = Uri.fromFile(file);
                        testIntent.setDataAndType(uri, "application/pdf");
                        try {
                            startActivity(testIntent);
                        } catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
                            Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "No application available to view PDF",
                                    Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        }
                        // get other required data by changing the constant passed to getColumnIndex
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    };

I checked in Android 7.1.1.

Yes I found solution. The problem is didn't enabled download manager.

Go to the Settings > App
In the options click 'Show System Apps'
Find 'Download Manager' and open it
Click 'Notifications' under App Settings
Switch on Allow Notifications
