What do you mean by notifications (are you using toasts or alerts or something else) and can you please post your code. May I also suggest using Android Studio and Genymotion.

Thanks for your response, Sorry I did not mention that the Push Notifications are not working. They appear in the eclipse emulator but not on the device. I wanted to know if others have the same problem and if it was something I did or Parse is buggy. Yeah maybe I will download Genymotion and see how that goes.

Currently I just use an Alarm Service in android to create Alert Notifications at different times, But I was hoping to use my Back end to send custom Push Notifications.

Sorry can't help you with that as I haven't worked with push notifications before. But if you send me your code I can test to see if it is a device problem (some other app or setting interfering) or a code problem.
