I wouldn't mind if you include it, or instead of that a pop-up confirming the download has completed. Whichever is easier for you since you've done quite a lot.

I agree. I like the reassurance that something actually happened (especially when I am skipping through songs and intermittently downloading), but I think the key is having a minimal, yet effective indication. Where I work, I have a HORRIBLE data signal. Sometimes I can't even get Pandora to stream or the cover art comes in "glitchy", so quite often I have to check: 1. Is it downloading and 2. Did it finish downloading

I think I'd prefer a completion notification over the toast message that pops up. A progress bar would be nice, especially if you're on a slow connection, so you're sure that it's actually doing something. The downloads are usually pretty fast that I've seen though, so a completion notification might be sufficient.

Pandora Patcher already provides what is known as a 'toast' notification both when a download has started and when a download has completed. Optionally you can download an Xposed module (I don't know the name of it because I have never actually used it) that can convert 'toast' notifications from a specified application or applications into traditional notifications that would remain until physically dismissed.

I'm actually having some issues writing the notification stuff, so this could take a very long time...

Here you go.

P.S. You implemented function that checks to see if 128kbps file exists and if it does it deletes it.. so can you do same for mp4 and m4a ;)

I will be forever grateful. :)

I can't do it easily because then I'd have to rebuild a separate string to search for in all possible locations and then delete it. Meanwhile finding if what I'm going to download exists already is super easy. The file extension is what makes it not so easy
