Question

I’m trying to deal with push notifications in my main class (and i also have GCMBroadcastReceiver – for all the notifications that comes when i’m not running the main class)

but the registerReceiver Does not work
(GCMBroadcasrReceiver works fine)

my code:

public class Main extends Activity {
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        registerReceiver(mHandleMessageReceiver, new IntentFilter("com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE"));
    }

    private final BroadcastReceiver mHandleMessageReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
        @Override
        public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
            Log.d("BroadcastReceiver","Working");
        }
    };

}

Manifest:

<receiver android:name="com.google.android.gcm.GCMBroadcastReceiver" android:permission="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.SEND" >
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE" />
        <action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.REGISTRATION" />
    </intent-filter>
</receiver>

*Works fine only in my 4.1.2 (S3)

Well, found the solution:

in my GCMIntentService.java i need to set sendBroadcast like so:

@Override
protected void onMessage(Context context, Intent intent) {

        Intent i = new Intent("com.my.app.DISPLAY_PUSH");

        i.putExtra("msg", intent.getExtras().getString("msg"));
        context.sendBroadcast(i);
    }

and the BroadcastReceiver should be

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    registerReceiver(mHandleMessageReceiver, new IntentFilter("com.my.app.DISPLAY_PUSH"));
    }
.
.
.

private final BroadcastReceiver mHandleMessageReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        Log.d("BroadcastReceiver","Working with msg:" + intent.getExtras().getString("msg")  );
        }
};

I wonder why it works in 4.1.2 without the sendBroadcast…
