I'm using MPNS to push notifications to my windows phone app. Messages are being delivered properly and i can see and open my app using the toast.
The issue i am facing is that many a times, the text in the message comes as "New Notification". Has anyone else faced this issue. Kindly help

Is it still possible to enable authenticated (no-quota) push notifications for company app on Windows Phone?
There were a couple of blog posts by Windows Phone team documenting the process to enable no-quota push notifications for company app but now, on development portal, it is not possible to upload a certificate without linking it to an app.

https://blogs.windows.com/buildingapps/2013/06/06/no-quota-push-notifications-using-a-root-certificate-authority/
I'm sure Microsoft added this feature a couple of years ago but now it seems to has been removed.
Do you know if authenticated push notifications for company app is still supported by Microsoft?
This is because you have the old developer account UI , and I think you should upgrade to store dev :
Unify windows phone developer account with store developer account
However , there was old trick for enterprise testers to test their apps by passing windows store with Build it Beta, it is similar to testflight, or hockeyapps.
Update:
if you are saying that you have updated your account, and you got the new dashboard simply follow :
Dashboard>apps>services>push notifications
as appears in image below
I have a Windows Phone application running on a Windows Phone 8.1 device, and I am using Windows Push Notification Services (WNS) to deliver a push message to the device. Delivering push messages has worked for approximately 8 days, until I received WNS headers in the responses similar to these:
X-WNS-NOTIFICATIONSTATUS: dropped
X-WNS-STATUS: dropped
X-WNS-ERROR-DESCRIPTION: Blocked channel URL
X-WNS-MSG-ID: 2DC1361376C2827E
X-WNS-DEBUG-TRACE: DB5SCH101121937
I have not changed the push server implementation, nor the code on the Windows Phone device. There was literally no change in the build of either component. I went home at the end of a work day, and the next day, I ran a simple test only to be presented with that particular error. I have tried the following in an attempt to solve the problem:
Re-created the channel URL on the device.
Re-associated the existing Windows Phone application to the store.
Create a new Windows Phone application in Visual Studio (after association to the Store).
Re-created the Windows Phone application on the developer portal.
Used a different physical device.
Each without success. The documentation regarding WNS is sparse, there are no additional support channels that I am aware of, so I am stumped. What could be causing this particular error "Blocked channel URL", or, how do I solve it?
from your windows phone app you need to renew the url for the notification channel, because the url can be valid up to 15 days.
from the microsoft documentation:
"Request a channel each time the app launches. Channel URLs can expire and are not guaranteed to remain the same each time you request one. If the returned channel URL is different than the URL that you had been using, update your reference in your app server."

I have built a windows phone App and I want to upload it. However, after signing in (with my windows account) and clicking on "Windows phone store" I just get redirected at the same page! I tried to create another account but that didn't help either. I deleted cookies, history,... and even tried with another browser but again nothing. I must also mention that I do not get any message after being redirected.
Could it be that they could have a issue. Can anyone try to access the dashboard?
Any suggestion on what could the problem be are welcome.
This is the linking which I am referring to: https://dev.windows.com/en-us/dashboard
Microsoft removed the problem, in other words newly created accounts can enter the "Windows phone store" dashboard!
I am stuck in using facebook API in WindowsPhone8.1, i am unable to create a login button and authenticate user in WP8.1, and i couldnt search relative material on google too, even though i have done the same task in Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8 but not in Windows phone 8.1
here is my code that i have used for login process
App.fb.session = await App.fb.sessionclient.LoginAsync("user_about_me,read_stream,publish_action");
App.fb.AccessToken = App.fb.session.AccessToken;
App.fb.FacebookID = App.fb.session.FacebookId;
App.fb.expires = App.fb.session.Expires;
but i give "No Implemented" Exception
Thanks in advance
I'm not very sure about whether the WP8.1 has integrated the Facebook Authentication. As mentioned here it's still not.
I made a little app for WP8 that would fetch notifications from Azure mobile service table (and it did). Then I added push to it. The app is identical to the sample app given on the Azure website. I even tried the sample one and the same thing happened: log shows toasts have been sent but my device doesn't receive any at all.
Also, I have done the same with WinJS app and it works flawlessly.
Last night, I tried it again and got toast on device just once out of nearly 20 requests.
I am clueless - if its the code that you are looking for it's right here http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/develop/mobile/tutorials/get-started-with-push-wp8/
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
Were you running the application in the foreground on the phone at the time? Toasts don't show on WP8 if the app is in the foreground.
