Android parse.com Can't receive push notification

Question

I can't receive push notifications, using parse.com service.
I used a quick guide trying to solve my problem. I was trying to use channel this specified name and "" as a channel name. Also i found Cannot receive push notifications in Android with trigger.io and parse.com
I succeed to send object to parse.com, and to subscribe for notifications (at least I can see my app in DataBrowser on parse.com)

public class ParseStarterProjectActivity extends Activity {
 /** Called when the activity is first created. */
 @Override
 public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
 super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
 setContentView(R.layout.main);
 PushService.subscribe(this, "push", TestParse.class);
 PushService.setDefaultPushCallback(this, TestParse.class);
 }
}
 public class ParseApplication extends Application {
 @Override
 public void onCreate() {
 super.onCreate();
 Parse.initialize(this, my_id, my_client_key);
 } 
}
public class TestParse extends Activity {
 @Override
 protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
 super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
 setContentView(R.layout.parse);
 }
}

AndroidManifest.xml

Recently I've noticed LogCat errors:

02-21 18:17:45.381: ERROR/Trace(8952): error opening trace file: No such file or directory (2)
02-21 18:17:48.534: ERROR/com.parse.PushService(8888): unknown host

I really want to receive notifications. What am I doing wrong?

• njzk2: can you post your manifest even though you are sure you put all required stuff there ? you may have missed something
• njzk2: what have you analyzed so far ? your application is created / started ? your activity as well ?
• Konstantin Kiriushyn: My Application created, started. It shows Hello World, and also it registered at Parse.com. I can see it in DataBrowser Tab. There I can see that it listens to "push channel". So I'm trying to send notification through "Push Notifications" tab from parse.com. Nothing happens on device
• Konstantin Kiriushyn: HTC One S and 4.0.3 emulator
• njzk2: any log on one side or the other ?

Parse employee here. In order to handle increased load on our push service, we increased the number of machines serving push.parse.com. Some ISPs started having issues when DNS resolution returned this many servers. Last Friday afternoon, we launched a custom DNS server which works around these issues with 3rd party DNS resolution. This should no longer be an issue.

• Erum: @Thomas Bouldin i m sending push using parse from androi device using JSON Object with alert as well and title as well but i m not recieving any notification in android device
• Thomas Bouldin: I suspect push isn't configured correctly. I'd try turning on verbose logging and checking LogCat. Try Parse.setLogLevel(Parse.LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE)
• Erum: @ThomasBouldin where should i use this code ? i m using inide success call back or failure call back of parsePush.sendInBackground(new SendCallback() {
