Fails to register device without giving any error

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install the App
2. Run it
3. Select an account and press "Register Device"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Status goes from "Device not registered" to "Registering device..." for about a 
second and then goes back to "Device not registered"

What version of the android, in Settings -> About phone -> Build number (
ex. FRFxx ) ? If less than FRF50 - see the FAQ.

FRF91

Is the phone using WiFi or mobile network when problem occurs ? If Wifi,
are you behind a firewall that blocks outgoing connections ?

WiFi, everything else works fine, and I have tried to register from different 
networks including Google.

Can you open "Gmail" application ? Do you see new messages without hitting
'refresh' ?

Yes

Can you open "Talk" application ? Do you see incoming chats ?

Yes

I had a similar issue but I found a workaround. Go to the barcode on this site 
for the Android Extension. Scan the Barcode using barcode scanner. Then 
complete the set up. It works. Install the chrome extension on the 
desktop/laptop. Voila !!!

Having same issue on Droid X. Device was previously associated with account, 
logged in this morning and it says no device associated. Attempted to add, 
fails; no error.
