This is the situation in my Installation page on Parse Console:
As you see some devices have the "deviceToken" and some do not have the "deviceToken". This is not good because every device should have the deviceToken in order to work.
How is this possible? This is a serious problem because the ones that do not have the deviceToken do not receive push notifications!
I've followed all the instructions on Parse.com and implemented everything as they said, even with the help of their blank project and with the help of various questions on the web. But nothing fixed my problem and now I can't do anything.
The only thing I can think about is that before my application (it is already on the Store) used to use Google Cloud Messaging and then with this new update I've decided to change the system and use Parse removing completely GCM system. Is there maybe a conflict between the two systems?
I need to fix this as you can imagine this is a serious bug and now 3/4 of my users do not receive push notifications.
If you download the app and install it: everything is good, the deviceToken is ok. If you update the app because there already was a version with GCM on the device:
For the devices that do not have the deviceToken I've tried a lot of things: inserting a deviceToken manually, uninstall and reinstall the application, delete the specific row on Parse, etc. But nothing good... Still facing this problem.
MY CODE
Application.java
public class Application extends android.app.Application {
public Application() {
}
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
// Initialize the Parse SDK.
Parse.initialize(this, "x", "x");
// Specify an Activity to handle all pushes by default.
PushService.setDefaultPushCallback(this, MainActivity.class);
}
}
MainActivity.java In my mainActivity I just concatenate the deviceToken (in my case it is the installationId) into my userAgent: and this work fine: I always have the installationId without any problem! And this is the only thing I am doing in my MainActivity (do I need to do anything else? saveInBackground, callback, etc..?)
deviceToken = ParseInstallation.getCurrentInstallation().getInstallationId();
webSettings.setUserAgentString(userAgent + " ||" + deviceToken);

I don't really know what else to do, that's why I hope that somebody can help me with this.
Thank you.
Are you using 2 user profiles at the same time on the tablet? Because I've had exactly the same problem and from my experience there is a conflict between the profiles. Infact, in my situation one device was registering 2 rows into the Parse database. One with the deviceToken and one with "undefined" deviceToken.
Unfortunately I've never solved this problem, I guess this is a bug from Parse.
