Android Question Firebase Push Notifications Using B4A version 12.80 64bit

[jllewis411]

Simple question, has anyone gotten the Firebase Push Notifications to work according to the tutorial:

FirebaseNotifications - Push messages / Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM)

Updated tutorial: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-firebase-push-notifications-2023.148715/ Clarification: The nice thing about FCM is that your app doesn't need to run in order to receive messages. The FirebaseMessaging receiver will be started by the OS when a new message...

I installed B4A version 12.80 64Bit with Oracle Java Developer Kit 11.0.18 on Windows 11. The simulator works fine and other example applications work fine. The physical phone is an Galaxy Fold 5. I've even tried the Open Java Kit as well with the same results.

Everything compiles correctly, however, the application crashes both on the emulator and on a test phone. There is a background process active, which is the receiver, but the test device reports an application crash.

Thank you for any help.

Of course. Many developers use it. It is very simple to implement.

You should however follow the updated tutorial:

I did follow the tutorial and watched the video carefully. Setup everything as the video instructed, downloaded the google-services.json. The application parsed the json file correctly and the app started as expected, however, it did not continue to run, it crashed according to the phone.

I will attempt to uninstall everything again and go through the application. There must be something I am missing and will re-examine every step again.

Thanks for your response.

When an app crashes there is always a stack trace in the logs. Post them.
