I'm wondering if it's even possible to perform this. I want to place an icon in the Status Bar of the Android showing that my app is running in background. I'm not talking about a "standard" Notification. I really mean an icon (with no user interaction), like the bluetooth one, when it is activated. I will appreciate your answers even if it's just for saying that it is not possible :) Thanks.

That is not possible from an SDK application, sorry. Please use a Notification.
