Below I included my manifest and GCMIntentService definition, and my call to register with the GCM server. I've been staring at it so long I might be missing something obvious, if so I apologize.</p> <p>All ideas welcome!</p> <p><strong>Here is my manifest:</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="PACKAGE" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.0" &gt; &lt;uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" android:targetSdkVersion="15" /&gt; &lt;permission android:name="PACKAGE.permission.C2D_MESSAGE" android:protectionLevel="signature" /&gt; &lt;uses-permission android:name="PACKAGE.permission.C2D_MESSAGE" /&gt; &lt;uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE" /&gt; &lt;uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" /&gt; &lt;uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /&gt; &lt;application android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher" android:label="@string/app_name" android:theme="@style/AppTheme" &gt; &lt;service android:name=".GCMIntentService" android:enabled="true"/&gt; &lt;receiver android:name="com.google.android.gcm.GCMBroadcastReceiver" android:permission="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.SEND" &gt; &lt;intent-filter&gt; &lt;action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE" /&gt; &lt;action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.REGISTRATION" /&gt; &lt;category android:name="PACKAGE.GCMIntentService" /&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/receiver&gt; &lt;activity android:name=".MainActivity" android:label="@string/title_activity_main" &gt; &lt;intent-filter&gt; &lt;action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /&gt; &lt;category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /&gt; &lt;/intent-filter&gt; &lt;/activity&gt; &lt;/application&gt; &lt;/manifest&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>Here is my GCMIntentService to handle the return from GCM:</strong></p> <pre><code>import com.google.android.gcm.GCMBaseIntentService; import android.content.Context; import android.content.Intent; import android.util.Log; public class GCMIntentService extends GCMBaseIntentService { public static String TAG = "GCMIntentService"; public GCMIntentService(String senderId) { super(senderId); Log.d("GCMIntentService", senderId); } @Override protected void onError(Context arg0, String arg1) { Log.d("onError", arg1); } @Override protected boolean onRecoverableError(Context context, String errorId){ Log.d("onRecoverableError", errorId); return false; } @Override protected void onMessage(Context arg0, Intent arg1) { Log.d("onMessage", String.valueOf(arg1)); } @Override protected void onRegistered(Context arg0, String arg1) { Log.d("onRegistered", arg1); } @Override protected void onUnregistered(Context arg0, String arg1) { Log.d("onUnregistered", arg1); } } </code></pre> <p><strong>I attempt to register with the following in the onCreate method of my main class:</strong></p> <pre><code>GCMRegistrar.checkDevice(this); GCMRegistrar.checkManifest(this); final String regId = GCMRegistrar.getRegistrationId(this); if (regId.equals("")) { GCMRegistrar.register(this, SENDER_ID); } else { Log.d(TAG, "Already registered"); } </code></pre> <p><strong><em>UPDATE</em></strong> I have tried Raz's suggestion and I got the following error:</p> <pre><code>07-03 12:07:40.459: W/dalvikvm(341): threadid=1: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x4001d800) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): FATAL EXCEPTION: main 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate service package.gcm2.GCMIntentService: java.lang.InstantiationException: package.gcm2.GCMIntentService 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at android.app.ActivityThread.handleCreateService(ActivityThread.java:2943) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at android.app.ActivityThread.access$3300(ActivityThread.java:125) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:2087) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:123) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:4627) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:521) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:868) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:626) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): Caused by: java.lang.InstantiationException: package.gcm2.GCMIntentService 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at java.lang.Class.newInstanceImpl(Native Method) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at java.lang.Class.newInstance(Class.java:1429) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): at android.app.ActivityThread.handleCreateService(ActivityThread.java:2940) 07-03 12:07:40.508: E/AndroidRuntime(341): ... 10 more 07-03 12:08:34.560: I/Process(341): Sending signal.
