Android Push Notifications - Device not registering

My Android app opens and asks me to "Register for Notifications" I select YES the app then displays a message saying that the "Device has been registered" but it never shows up in the BT Control panel as a registered device. I have tried the suggestion on this post and still does not show up. http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=56643342D49BA08BDEEB1EF From what I can tell I setup everything correctly in the Android Developer Console and have update the BT control panel with my Project Number and API Key. I also added the Project number in the BT_gcmConfig.java and the AndroidManifest.xml files. Any other thoughts or suggestions?

Niraj - I'm in the Android Development funk. I seem to have everything right yet it still doesn't work. This seems be normal when developing for Android. This is a reminder why I prefer developing for iOS. Congrats on releasing your plugin. It looks great and is priced right! Keep up the good work. Let me know when you are in Orlando again.

It turns out that the device (Nexus 7 - Gen 1) I was testing with will not register with the BT control panel for Google GCM notification. When I installed the same code on a different device it registered instantly. There were also issues getting notifications to work properly even after getting the device to register. I was able to get that resolved by modifying the code from the suggestion in this post. https://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=56643342D49BA08BDEEB1EF&sortColumn=FT.id&sortUpDown=DESC&currentPage=1
