Updated code

    Parse.initialize(this, Constant.PARSE_APP_ID, Constant.PARSE_CLIENT_KEY);
    ParseACL defaultACL = new ParseACL();
    defaultACL.setPublicReadAccess(true);
    ParseACL.setDefaultACL(defaultACL, true);
    PushService.setDefaultPushCallback(this, MainActivity.class);
    ParseInstallation.getCurrentInstallation().getInstallationId();
    ParseInstallation.getCurrentInstallation().saveInBackground();

This is the code which I used for the registration on parse.com

   PushService.subscribe(this, "name",Detail.class);

This is the code which i used for the registration of the chanels

Answer 1

Same problem here.
This looked like a race condition to me, so I tried putting setDefaultPushCallback in a new Callback like this:

ParseInstallation.getCurrentInstallation().saveInBackground(new SaveCallback()
{
    @Override
    public void done(ParseException e)
    {
        PushService.setDefaultPushCallback(ParseApplication.this, ParseStarterProjectActivity.class);
    }
});

I haven't had a crash yet (although it hasn't been very long). I hope this helps.

Answer 2

We had a similar issue:

We had to move the: PushService.setDefaultPushCallback(this, MainActivity.class);

Into the MainActivity#onCreate, we tried calling this in our application class but that cashed.

Parse are really unhelpful on this matter, hopefully one of them and provide some insight.
