im explaining in short what i have done, i downloaded the push notification example available on github. made the package com.shephertz.app42.push.plugin in my app. copy pasted all the classes from the sample app to mine.

 

the following code is a part of my homeactivity which is launched after the user loggs in

import com.shephertz.app42.paas.sdk.android.App42API;
import com.shephertz.app42.paas.sdk.android.App42Log;
import com.shephertz.app42.push.plugin.App42GCMController;
import com.shephertz.app42.push.plugin.App42GCMController.App42GCMListener;
import com.shephertz.app42.push.plugin.App42GCMService;

import com.shephertz.app42.paas.sdk.android.App42API;

public class HomeActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements App42GCMListener{

    private static final String GoogleProjectNo = "my projct no<editied for privacy>";

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_home);
        Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
        setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
        App42API.setLoggedInUser(App42API.getLoggedInUser());
        App42Log.setDebug(true);
    }

    public void onStart() {
        super.onStart();
        if (App42GCMController.isPlayServiceAvailable(this)) {
            App42GCMController.getRegistrationId(HomeActivity.this,
                    GoogleProjectNo, this);
        } else {
            Log.i("App42PushNotification",
                    "No valid Google Play Services APK found.");
        }
    }


    @Override
    public void onError(String errorMsg) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    }

    @Override
    public void onGCMRegistrationId(String gcmRegId) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        App42GCMController.storeRegistrationId(this, gcmRegId);
        if(!App42GCMController.isApp42Registerd(HomeActivity.this))
            App42GCMController.registerOnApp42(App42API.getLoggedInUser(), gcmRegId, this);
    }

    @Override
    public void onApp42Response(final String responseMessage) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
            }
        });
    }

    @Override
    public void onRegisterApp42(final String responseMessage) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                App42GCMController.storeApp42Success(HomeActivity.this);
            }
        });
    }

    final BroadcastReceiver mBroadcastReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
        @Override
        public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
            String message = intent
                    .getStringExtra(App42GCMService.ExtraMessage);
        }
    };


}

HI Checker,

Greetings!!!

As User is successfully registered on AppHQ, everything that you have done is fine. But there may be a case some configuration missing in AndroidManifest.xml file.

You need to mdifify the same as per steps mentioned in ReadME file.

1. Need to add App42GCMService.java in service section.
2. Need to add App42GCMReceiver in in receiver section that receives the push messages.

Will you please share the AndroidManifest.xml file, that will help us to trace the exact problem.

Thanks
