Some device dont's receive push notification

I implemented GCM push notification with play services 8.4 and sending via php with high priority.
In my Android 4.3 I receive the message, even if after a few minutes while a J5 Samsung with Android 5.1 can take several hours and sometimes is not even received.
I followed the google implementation guidelines for the gcm.
In diagnosing GCM for the J5 of the message tracking token it is indicated as received by GCM but nothing else.
J5 on other applications (whatsapp) receive notifications even in standby but not mine. Now it is as I seek solutions.
I tried through alarm to wake up the manager app to input this, I tried with all the mechanisms suggested by Google but nothing.
I found the information about it of 'HeartBeat but I understood that only decreases the contact time (from 28 minutes to as many as you want in a mobile connection) of the device to the GCM but the situation would not change.
I do not care if the message comes after one hour, but the important thing is to arrive before my death.
Help!

Parse deviceToken empty after ParseInstallation save

I am working on an app where I use Parse to send and receive notifications. The problem now is that when I register an installation deviceToken is empty (deviceType and installationId aren't empty). When this token is empty I can't receive any notifications.
How I register the installation:
Parse.initialize(this, "x", "x");
ParseInstallation.getCurrentInstallation().saveInBackground();
When I added all the code for Parse to my app (https://www.parse.com/apps/quickstart#parse_push/android/native/existing) everything was working fine.

I just created a new application, added Parse and deleted the Installation class/table in Parse but still no deviceToken.

I think it's a bug in the new Parse SDK. I downgraded to 1.9.0 and everything works fine now.

Push Notification receiver android( manifest?)

At the moment the push notifications doesnt work beacause onRegistered is never launched. I think the problem is in the manifest(since the problem is that the receiver is never called) but I'm not sure
this is my manifest

Try changing this :
<uses-permission android:name="com.name.name.permission.C2D_MESSAGE"
android:protectionLevel="normal" />
To this :
<permission android:name="com.name.name.permission.C2D_MESSAGE"
android:protectionLevel="signature" />
<uses-permission android:name="com.name.name.permission.C2D_MESSAGE" />

i'm not sure where the crossover stops, but i'm using C2DM instead of GCM still, and I'm declaring my message and registration receivers as local classes, not pointing to the google classes like you are.
