Android Heads-up notification disappears after a few seconds

Question

I would that the notification does not disappear after a few seconds. So i have create the notification like this:

  NotificationCompat.Builder builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context);
        builder.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.cast_ic_notification_small_icon)
                .setDefaults(Notification.FLAG_ONGOING_EVENT)
                .setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_HIGH)
                .setContentTitle(notificationDetails.getSubject())
                .setContentText(notificationDetails.getMessage())
                .setColor(context.getResources().getColor(R.color.colorPrimary))
                .setOngoing(true);

and setting the FLAG_ONGOING_EVENT and the method setOngoing(true).

but after a few seconds the notification continues to disappears. I wish the notification to disappear only when the user clicks on. Thank you.

Duration of heads-up notification can't be changed It is set at OS level Depends on OS how much time it provides for it.
