How to convert this query to doctrine DQL

Question

SELECT apntoken,deviceid,created 
FROM `distribution_mobiletokens` as dm
WHERE userid='20'
and not exists (
    select 1 
    from `distribution_mobiletokens`
    where userid = '20'
    and deviceid = dm.deviceid
    and created > dm.created
    )

What this query does is selects all mobiletokens where the user id is equal to 20 and the deviceid is the same but chooses the newest apntoken for the device.

My database looks like below.

For more information on this query, I got this answer from another question I asked here(How to group by in SQL by largest date (Order By a Group By))

Things I've Tried

$mobiletokens = $em->createQueryBuilder()
          ->select('u.id,company.id as companyid,user.id as userid,u.apntoken')
          ->from('AppBundle:MobileTokens', 'u')
          ->leftJoin('u.companyId', 'company')
          ->leftJoin('u.userId', 'user')
          ->where('u.status = 1 and user.id = :userid')
          ->setParameter('userid',(int)$jsondata['userid'])
          ->groupby('u.apntoken')
          ->getQuery()
          ->getResult();

       //@JA - Get the list of all the apn tokens we need to send the message to.
       foreach($mobiletokens as $tokenobject){
           $deviceTokens[] = $tokenobject["apntoken"];
           echo $tokenobject["apntoken"]."\n";
       }

        die();

This gives me the incorrect response of

63416A61F2FD47CC7B579CAEACB002CB00FACC3786A8991F329BB41B1208C4BA

Any help here is appreciated!

You could use a subselect created with the querybuilder as example:

public function selectNewAppToken($userId)
{
    // get an ExpressionBuilder instance, so that you
    $expr = $this->_em->getExpressionBuilder();

    // create a subquery in order to take all address records for a specified user id
    $sub = $this->_em->createQueryBuilder()
        ->select('a')
        ->from('AppBundle:MobileTokens', 'a')
        ->where('a.user = dm.id')
        ->andWhere('a.deviceid = dm.deviceid')
        ->andWhere($expr->gte('a.created','dm.created'));


    $qb = $this->_em->createQueryBuilder()
        ->select('dm')
        ->from('AppBundle:MobileTokens', 'dm')
        ->where($expr->not($expr->exists($sub->getDQL())))
        ->andWhere('dm.user = :user_id')
        ->setParameter('user_id', $userId);

    return $qb->getQuery()->getResult();
}
