Question

I am trying to integrate GSM in my android app. I am able to run GCM-Client-demo app and registered device through that demo using my Api key and Sender_id, but when i use same code in my app i am not able to register device with GCM.

What i get error in log cat is.

08-13 11:24:34.787: W/ActivityManager(2465): Unable to start service Intent { act=com.google.android.c2dm.intent.REGISTRATION cat=[com.demo.demogcm] cmp=com.demo.demogcm/.GCMIntentService (has extras) }: not found

My manifest file.

<uses-sdk
    android:minSdkVersion="8"
    android:targetSdkVersion="15" />

<!-- GCM connects to Google Services. -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

<!-- GCM requires a Google account. -->

     <receiver

            <!-- Receives the registration id. -->
            <action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.REGISTRATION" />

    </receiver>

    <!--

    -->
    <service android:name=".view.GCMIntentService" />
</application>

Can anyone tell me what mistake i am doing ?

Answer 1

Please replace (in menifest)

android:name=”.view.GCMIntentService” code with this android:name=”.GCMIntentService” and put GCMIntentService in same package “com.demo.demogcm”
