Get the deviceToken - Android

[hh]

Hey All,

how can we retrieve the deviceToken in Android?

It seems impossible to be done, and I need it to unregister the device (API call needs the deviceToken).

Thanks for your help,

Kr,

Henry

Hi,

deviceToken is not exposed in AeroGear Android lib, anyway you can unregister a device using the unregister[1][2] method.

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your reply.

I knew about the "unregister" method but it didn't do his job perfectly, as sometimes it wasn't unregistered and I had the following block & error which where throwed.

 if ((deviceToken == null) || (deviceToken.trim().equals(""))) {
                        throw new IllegalStateException(DEVICE_ALREADY_UNREGISTERED);
 }

But my device was still registered, so I don't really understand why this error was throwed.

Probably, the deviceToken is null, as for the register method, we have the following:

 if (instanceId == null) {
                        instanceId = instanceIdProvider.get(context);
                    }
                    String token = instanceId.getToken(senderId,
                                                    GoogleCloudMessaging.INSTANCE_ID_SCOPE);
                   
                    deviceToken = token;



while for the unregister method there is nothing, so I don't see how the deviceToken could not be null?

Thanks,

Henry

Are you using the same instance of the registrar to register and unregister?
