Question

I have a problem I`m just not getting any GCM Messages. I dont want Pop Ups or sounds playing, it doesnt even fire the onReceive() Method in the Broadcast Reciever, which is, to my understanding, the first point the Application handles a message.

My biggest problem is I dont get any error messages or Hints. When I send a message, I get the message ID, a multicast ID and a “success=1” message. I also get a “Device registrated on any device and a Reg ID, a “already registered” running the app a second time. The Devices are also logged into Google Play, same account as on the Google API Console. But nothing happens on the Device when I send a GCM Message.

I post my complete android manifest, please let me know if you need more code. This is driving my crazy.

EDIT

I dont need a solution for this if not possible. I´d be very thankful for hints how to find out what`s going wrong. E.g. I found out I have to have an open Port 5228. Does anybody know how to check if the devices is listening on that port?

The Issue is solved.

I had to turn Wi-Fi off.
