Is there any difference using device with 4.0.4 android version or 3.2 to run a GCM notification project?

Question

I already ask a question on this subject. (see the link) How can I receive multiple notifications by using GCM without replacing the precedent one?

I'm working on a project which receive notification from GCM server.

I run it on two device. The first one is 4.0.4 android version, and the second one 3.2 Android version. I note that when I send a notification on the first one, I receive,at the same time, two messages. Which isn't the case with the second one.

Is it due to the version of the device?

Answer 1

No, as far as I understand this is not a version issue, at least is it not a version issue I have ever seen before.

You are probably receiving two notifications because you registered your app with GCM more than once on the 4.0.4 device.

I would check the response on your server for any Canonical IDs that might allow you to fix this. You can also try unegistering your app on the 4.0.4 device and see if you still receive any GCM messages.
