android C2DM notifications not working prior to android 4?

I trying to make push notifications work for my android app. The server seems OK since I receive notifications on my android 4 device. But I have other devices with android 2.2.1 and 2.3.4 that don't receive the notifications.

Here's my C2DMReceiver :

package vex.android;

import java.io.IOException;

import vex.android.settings.Local;
import vex.android.tool.Resources;
import android.app.Notification;
import android.app.NotificationManager;
import android.app.PendingIntent;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.util.Log;

import com.google.android.c2dm.C2DMBaseReceiver;

public class C2DMReceiver extends C2DMBaseReceiver {

    public C2DMReceiver() {
        super(Local.PushNotificationEmail);
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(Context context, String errorId) {
        Log.e("VEX-PUSHNOTIFICATION", "Error " + errorId);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onMessage(Context context, Intent intent) {

        String saleTitle = Resources.getString("pushnotificationtitle", context); 
        String saleMessage = intent.getStringExtra("salemessage");
        String SaleId = intent.getStringExtra("saleid");
        String isMultiSale = intent.getStringExtra("ismultisale");

        Boolean multisale = (isMultiSale != null && isMultiSale.length()>0) ?  Boolean.parseBoolean(isMultiSale.trim()) : false;
        Integer saleid = (SaleId != null && SaleId.length()>0) ? Integer.parseInt(SaleId.trim()) : -1;
        if(saleMessage == null || saleMessage.length() <= 0 ) saleMessage = Resources.getString("pushnoticationmessage", context);
        createNotification(context, saleTitle, saleMessage, saleid, multisale);
    }

    public void createNotification(Context context,String SaleTitle, String SaleMessage, Integer saleid, Boolean multisale) {

        NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) context
                .getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
        Notification notification = new Notification(R.drawable.applicationicon,
                "Message received", System.currentTimeMillis());
        // Hide the notification after its selected
        notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;

        Intent intent = new Intent(context, MainApplication.class);
        intent.putExtra("saleid", saleid);
        intent.putExtra("ismultisale", multisale);
        PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT); // without flag a changed saleid wont be passed
        notification.setLatestEventInfo(context, SaleTitle, SaleMessage, pendingIntent);
        notificationManager.notify(saleid, notification);
    }

    @Override
    public void onRegistered(Context context, String registrationId) 
    throws IOException 
    {
        Local.setRegistrationId(registrationId);
    }

    @Override
    public void onUnregistered(Context context) 
    {
            Log.i("VEX-DEBUG", "successfully unregistered with C2DM server");
    }

}

I think the problem is there because event if I send the notification manually (with curl) it doesn't work with android 2.2 and 2.3. Any idea? Thanks

C2DM uses Google Messaging Service. GTalk uses this service as well. Sometimes this service might be turned off. To check all related information just type in this code - *#*#8255#*#*

C2DM is available on devices with android >= 2.2

I've not had any problems using C2DM on devices on older Android versions.

I suggest you get more devices to test with, and check your code - the problem is not an issue of a lack of C2DM support for older devices - it works on Android from v2.2 onwards.
