Overview of gcm  You send a request to google server from your android phone  You receive a registration id as a response  You will then have to send this registration id to the server from where you wish to send notifications to the mobile  Using this registration id you can then send notification to the device   Answer    To send a notification you send the data message  with the registration id of the device to https   android googleapis com gcm send   use curl in php   To receive notification and registration etc  thats all you will be requiring  You will have to store the registration id on the device as well as on server  If you use GCM jar the registration id is stored in preferences  If you wish you can save it in your local database as well
