Intent intent = new Intent("android.intent.action.BADGE_COUNT_UPDATE");
    intent.putExtra("badge_count", 3);
    intent.putExtra("badge_count_package_name", getApplicationContext().getPackageName());
    intent.putExtra("badge_count_class_name", MainActivity.class.getName());
    getApplicationContext().sendBroadcast(intent);
