I have go through several posts in the internet but did not get a straight and clear answer for this.
I am doing one app on android which needs data to be sent/received from a database over internet. So how I can send/receive messages from my remote database on my android device?
Is there any messaging framework available currently in the android to do this type of task?
One method I thought of is to have PHP scripts at my web server and I will call those php scripts from my android httpClient. But its a bit tire some and error checking also a bit problem and retry mechanism also not there.
Please suggest a good way.

Google Cloud Messaging may be suitable just for sending push notifications to android devices and things like that. And XMPP could be used to send messages from one android to another. So what you have taken, using a PHP script and calling it using a URLConnection or HTTPConnection is a better way to make transaction with a remote database
