Android push notifications not receiving/not sending

Question

I know that this question has been asked a lot, but many also went unanswered.

However, I use Parse.com to send push-notifications to devices. On iOS it works fine. But it's not receives on Android devices.

When I looking at Push tab on service page I see that no one push wasn't sent. Value in 'Pushes Sent' column is 0 (zero).

Then I sent push through GCM (gcm-http.googleapis.com) and my device received the message.

Perhaps the problem may be in settings of Parse.com?

I was added Sender ID (Project number) & API Key from Google.

On the advice of Clayton Oliveira I noticed, when I install my app and initialize it first time I get my token and pushes works fine. But when I open my app again I get another token and pushes are not working until I delete all data from Parse, uninstall my app & install it again.

Any ideas?

I was facing the same problem just now ! Here's what did the trick:

I uninstalled my app and deleted all the data previously stored on Parse (Installation, Session and User).

After that, just install your app again and if you did everything right from the Parse tutorial: https://www.parse.com/tutorials/android-push-notifications

Try send another Test Push ;)

If you do not add the permission of the message then add it in to your manifest file.

<uses-permission android:name="your.package.name.permission.C2D_MESSAGE"/>

and add this firebase lib in app's build.gradle file:

compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:11.0.4'
