[Android] onRegister not called, no permissions requested

[hankedori]

Hey guys, I've been trying to get this working for quite a while now, but the onRegister callback never seems to get called, no matter what configuration I try.

I'm using FCM with the following settings:

top-level build.gradle

buildscript {
    ext {
        buildToolsVersion = "27.0.3"
        minSdkVersion = 16
        compileSdkVersion = 27
        targetSdkVersion = 26
        supportLibVersion = "27.1.1"
        googlePlayServicesVersion = "15.0.1"
        androidMapsUtilsVersion = "0.5+"
    }
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.4'
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.0.2'
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenLocal()
        jcenter()
        maven {
            url "$rootDir/../node_modules/react-native/android"
        }
    }
}

task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
    gradleVersion = '4.4'
    distributionUrl = distributionUrl.replace("bin", "all")
}

AndroidManifest

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW"/>

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED"/>

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
    <permission
       android:name="${applicationId}.permission.C2D_MESSAGE"
       android:protectionLevel="signature" />
    <uses-permission android:name="${applicationId}.permission.C2D_MESSAGE" />

...

      <receiver android:name="com.dieam.reactnativepushnotification.modules.RNPushNotificationPublisher" />
      <receiver android:name="com.dieam.reactnativepushnotification.modules.RNPushNotificationBootEventReceiver">
          <intent-filter>
              <action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
          </intent-filter>
      </receiver>
      <service android:name="com.dieam.reactnativepushnotification.modules.RNPushNotificationRegistrationService"/>
      <service android:name="com.dieam.reactnativepushnotification.modules.RNPushNotificationListenerService"
          android:exported="false" >
          <intent-filter>
              <action android:name="com.google.firebase.MESSAGING_EVENT" />
          </intent-filter>
      </service>

and my PushNotification config

PushNotification.configure({
    onError: function(e) {
      console.log(e)
    },
    onRegister: function(token) {
      token.os = Platform.OS === 'ios' ? 'ios' : 'android'
      api.registerDevice(token)
    },

    onNotification: function(notification) {
     // console.log(notification)

     if (Platform.OS === 'ios') notification.finish(PushNotificationIOS.FetchResult.NoData)
    },

    senderId: SENDER_ID,
    permissions: {
     alert: true,
     badge: true,
     sound: true
    },

    popInitialNotification: true,
    requestPermissions: true
  })

Everything works well on iOS, and local notifications are working for android.

The problem I am facing is that onRegister never gets called on android (on device and on emulator) which means that there is no way for me to send remote push notifications.

I am hoping someone can help me solve this issue, or at the very least point me towards methods for debugging why it may not be called.

Thanks!

[KeithM23]

Hopefully you've solved this already but if not I spotted you have

senderId: SENDER_ID,

instead of

senderID: SENDER_ID,

and also make sure SENDER_ID is the fcm id but inside a string, i.e SENDER_ID = "1234567"

[martingalovic]

same

senderID: "79663XXXXXXX",

and onRegister() doesn't get triggered, nor the alert with permissions request is shown.

Running on genymotion (with OpenGAPPS)

[KeithM23]

@martingalovic Do you have

requestPermissions: true

if not you have to manually request the permission

[martingalovic]

@martingalovic Do you have

requestPermissions: true

if not you have to manually request the permission

@KeithM23 Docs say it's default value, but i have tried it, and still, nothing happening.

[KeithM23]

@martingalovic When you say you don't see the alert request is this on iOS yes? On the devices we have here android never shows an alert but we always get the FCM token.

I'd also check that you've removed all the GCM code from your manifest file as this probably causes issues if left in.

[martingalovic]

@KeithM23 no, im talking bout android (i'm using genymotion)

Also this is my AndroidManifest.xml

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example">

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW"/>

    <application
      android:name=".MainApplication"
      android:label="@string/app_name"
      android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
      android:allowBackup="false"
      android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
      <activity
        android:name=".MainActivity"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize"
        android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
      </activity>
      <activity android:name="com.facebook.react.devsupport.DevSettingsActivity" />
    </application>

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
    <permission
        android:name="${applicationId}.permission.C2D_MESSAGE"
        android:protectionLevel="signature" />
    <uses-permission android:name="${applicationId}.permission.C2D_MESSAGE" />

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED"/>
</manifest>

[KeithM23]

@martingalovic it looks to me like you're missing the receiver and services i.e

`

    <service android:name="com.dieam.reactnativepushnotification.modules.RNPushNotificationRegistrationService"/>
    <service
        android:name="com.dieam.reactnativepushnotification.modules.RNPushNotificationListenerService"
        android:exported="false" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="com.google.firebase.MESSAGING_EVENT" />
        </intent-filter>
    </service>`

I'd advise going over the setup steps again to make sure you haven't missed anything. Also make sure you've added the google services json file as well to the project.

[martingalovic]

@KeithM23 I added the google-services.json into android/ directory, app has been verified (the google firebase check was successfull), but no alert w/ token was displayed

Technician.js (the main file)

// ...
import UserStorage from './storage/UserStorage'

import PushNotification from 'react-native-push-notification';

PushNotification.configure({

    onRegister: (token) => {
        Alert.alert( 'FCM TOKEN:', JSON.stringify(token) );
    },

    onNotification: (notification) => {
        console.log( 'NOTIFICATION:', notification );
    },

    senderID: "7966XXXXXXXX",

    requestPermissions: true,
});

class AuthLoadingScreen extends Component {
// ...

[KeithM23]

@martingalovic Did you add the receiver / services to your manifest?

[martingalovic]

[Solved my problem with crash]

Fix was basically to set com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm and com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging to same version

so my app/build.gradle looks like:

dependencies {
   // ...
   compile ("com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:12.0.1") {
        force = true
    }
    compile ("com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:12.0.1") {
        force = true
    }
}

[KeithM23]

@martingalovic So the app starts but you still don't get token?

Can you check Android Studio Logcat for any errors?

[martingalovic]

@KeithM23 no it works just fine with steps i described, thanks for help.

[muhammadhaseebsohail]

anyone resolve this error? i am also getting this error, and stuck here for the last 2 days, any help will be appreciated , Please anyone? i am also not getting neither the device token nor the app push notification request permission,

@martingalovic saved my day!!

[arapocket]

So I followed what @martingalovic said. I'm using the same version number everywhere, but it still doesn't work.

[thaoth58]

Sorry. I have same issue, do you guys know how to fix it?

[ifalldev]

@martingalovic could you share with us your build.gradle dependencies please?

My app runs normally but it don't call onRegister method in android version (iOS is fine) ;(

[LucienChu]

Any one has solved this issue? Running on RN0.59.10, on Android. Local notification fires and receipted normally but device token was net fetched. Running on PHYSICAL device already.

[haiflive]

on my android device problem was solved to install Google Play Services

also no any error in onError: function(e) {

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed in 30 days if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.

[hypnoboutique]

As @haiflive says, Google Play Services must be installed on the device.

My issue was that I'm developing for a feature phone (dumb phone) with no Play Services installed. 🤦
