I have gone through your several answers regarding the same issue. As i checked stackoverflow questions as well your github repository. And i mentioned everything in my index.html .

Answer 1

Hi Prabhjas,

If you are trying to integrate it in your current project then please go through with index.html file that will contains registerForPush function. This function is called from native android side to send device device Id generated from GCM.

Similarly when Push Notification received on Android Native side pushMessageAlert function is called that is defined in index.html file.If you go with index.html or PhoneGapActivity on Android Native side then you will find how the communication will happen between js and Android Native.

If you want to integrate in your own just define function in your main html file that are avialable in index.html file.

Let me know if more queries are concern.

Thanks & Regards

Vishnu Garg

Yeah! I got that thing but on clicking that message app gets open but no message appears so i need a function which i can call in my app.js file.. And i can put alert in that function so that user can see that message when it clicks on notification.

The main problem is Java in unable to communicate with JS in case of angular. For message you can save message in a file in asset folder and read it from there. Or you can save it in device preferences and retrieve the same using Cordova plugin from preferences.

I am able to solve this problem. but need your help to place .apk at google play store. I tried but google play is not accepting it gives this error.
