Push notifications & iMessage not working

Push notifications used to work for but once iMessage came out I haven't seen a single push notification and I've yet to get iMessage working.
iMessage activates just fine and verified my phone number without problems but can never send or receive messages.
I have the maximum texting & data plans with AT&T in California.
I have a stock never-been-jailbroken iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1.
Things I have attempted already:
• I have upgraded to 5.0.1.
• I've tried changing my Wifi DNS settings to google's DNS servers but that didn't change anything - and I need it to work on cellular.
• I've reset my networks settings
• I've restored my iPhone to factory settings and set it up as a new iPhone
• I've restored my iPhone to factory settings and restored from a backup
Has anyone found a fix for this? I am unable to parcicipate in any games or use work collaboration apps without push notifications, and the lack of iMessage is troubling.
Note: I've worked for Apple as an engineer for 6 years and write iPhone apps for a living. This is broken on Apple's side.

There are hundreds or people wih this exact same problem and apple has no interest in fixing it or publicly giving and answer to the issues. 
They Botched this release big time.  I look forward to having tp wipe my 64gb iPad and start from scratch.  Oh boy do I!!

  • No push notifications, iMessage not working after iOS 7 upgrade

    I'm not receiving push notifications for Apps such as Facebook after iOS 7 upgrade and iMessage & Facetime won't work. I repeatedly get a pop-up message to connect to iTunes for push notifications but connecting to iTunes does nothing. I have searched endlessly for a resolution but can only find answers directed at iPhone users. I am so regretting upgrading, I was very happy with how everything worked before. I should also say that I have nil experience on matters "Apple" and technical jargon is lost on me :(

  • Push notifications WhatsApp not work.

    Push notifications WhatsApp not work. I only receive them when I open the app. I've checked the settings on iOs and Whatsapp and all is ok. I've also updated to the latest versions. Can you help me?

    I actually did, and here is the answer I received:
    "When you are sent a message in WhatsApp, but are not online to receive it, WhatsApp will automatically send your message to the Apple Push Notification Service (APNS). This allows an alert containing the message to be displayed, even when WhatsApp is closed or your phone's display is off. Most often, all that is needed to resolve notification issues is to ensure that all notification settings are enabled. Review these FAQ pages for troubleshooting steps:
    Notifications Troubleshooting
    Connection Troubleshooting
    Sending your message to APNS typically takes only a few milliseconds. Once your message is sent to APNS, any delays or failure to deliver the message as a push notification to your device are usually caused by issues with your phone or network connection. Currently, all of our systems are operating normally.
    If you are using iOS 7, and are confident that you have all push notification settings enabled in WhatsApp and the iPhone Notification Center, then there is likely an issue with your phone that WhatsApp cannot resolve for you. In this case, I recommend the following steps:
    Backup your entire phone to iCloud.
    After the backup is complete, Erase all content and settings.
    Continue setting up your phone as a new device (do not restore from the iCloud backup).
    Install WhatsApp and verify that push notifications are working correctly (have someone send you a few test messages while your phone's display is turned off).
    Erase all content and settings and restore from the iCloud backup. "
    I tried to delete everything from my iPhone and then restore my data with the backup on my computer but it did not change anything, I still can't receive any notification, unless I open the application... However, I restored immediatly my backup cause I was afraid it wouldn't work after, but I don't really think it would change something to first start as a new device and then erase all content again and restore it.

  • Push notifications are not working on current gen ipod touch

    Push notifications are not working on current gen ipod touch. I just got it a couple of weeks back. It is a refurbished model.
    It works fine on my iphone 4 flawlessly. I have compared the settings between the 2 and everything is similar. Not sure if there is anything specific that needs to be done for an ipod. Kindly advise.

    Yea...internet is working fine. tried everything. reset the network, turned off the notifications, rebooted and turned them on. Still not working.
    When I select auto settings, its asks for https url...what do i type in there?
    The most weird thing is that, it was working fine before the update :s

    I'm running os 5.0.1 on a iPod Touch 4.  Push notifications are not working for email.
    The only way to check emails is to go into the email app and check for updates.

  • HT4246 I am unable to activate my facetime and my push notifications will not work. I have reset all of my settings and will not do it again. This has been an ongoing issue that I am very irritated with.

    Need help making my push notifications and facetime work.

    Contact AT&T. Make sure your account is provisioned properly for an iPhone (use those words... otherwise all they will do is look to see what you're paying for, which is not the same thing).
    It should work just fine so long as you're not trying to use a go-Phone SIM.

  • Push Notifications Are Not Working

    I'm currently using an iPhone 4 (iOS 4.3.3) and push notifications have stopped working. The only app that seems to still be pushing is TextPlus. In my case Facebook, Scrabble, Gowalla and Twitter have all stopped working.
    Here is what I have already tried:
    Restored my iPhone
    General --> Reset --> Reset All Settings
    None of these things worked. Are there any suggestions that will definitively help fix this issue? I'm at a loss.
    Thanks

    I have the exact same problem you have? I can occasionally getpushnotification, but only once a day fore facebook. For twitter, I get nothing and newer got. Other programs never got any notification att all.Push notification is on both under notification center and therespective programs.I have iOS 5.0.1 on iPhone 4S.

  • Enabling push notifications has not worked

    I have downloaded Viber on Iphone 4 and reinstalled twice and push notifications are on, but I cant get past the window notifying me that 'push notifications need to be turned on'
    What can I do to make this work please

    Try the Apple troubleshooting tips here -> iOS: Understanding Notifications
    Troubleshooting notifications
    Push notifications require an active Wi-Fi or cellular connection. If you are not receiving notifications for a specific app, try these steps:
    Verify that the app supports notifications.
    After installing an app or restoring a backup to a different iOS device, open the app at least once to begin receiving notifications.
    If the app requires entering or logging in to an account, you will need to do this before receiving notifications.
    Check Settings > Notifications to ensure that the app is configured for notifications.
    If notifications do not appear only in the Notification Center, verify that the Notification Center setting for the app is enabled.
    If you are still unable to receive notifications and you are using a Wi-Fi connection, verify that the network or firewall is not blocking access to port 5223.
    If that doesn't do it, check out Vibers support article -> Push Notifications for iPhone - How to enable
    You can email them notifications test results.

  • Push-notifications do not work when iPad connected to wifi

    Both my iPads (iPad 2 and The New iPad) successfully connected to home wireless network. Internet works in general: I can browse web-pages through Safari, check emails via Mail, games send data to Game center, etc. But number of Apple apps do not work, such as FaceTime, Messages and push-notifications. When I connect to my phone's 3G hot-spot, these apps work fine, and I get dozens of missed push-notifications. I think, problem in wi-fi router settings, but I can't find out what's wrong. I've tried to change  MTU value to 1400, change 802.11 mode to g-only and switch off router's firewall - nothing changes. How should I set up my router to make it work? Thank you!
