[android-developers] C2DM Tied to Market? (e.g. will it work on non-official devices)
Hi everyone, Quick question. Just wondering if Cloud to Device Messaging (C2DM) is available for devices that use Android 2.2 but don't have the Android Market installed (because they are not an official device). Is this service tied to the Market? Kind regards, Andy Savage -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

You would need to use some other push service (e.g., Urban Airship). -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 3.1 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Any idea if there is an emulator image around that would work for testing?

The Android 2.2 emulator should have the necessary bits for C2DM, as I understand it, despite it not having the Market. When I was testing C2DM, I used a device, though. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 3.1 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
