Android GCM does not works

Question

Hello I have created an android application in that I wants to GCM registration ID.

But I get the error in getting registration ID of GCM.

I get error like-

resetting backoff for idev.android.rchat

I've added the following code to the onCreate of my main activity:

    GCMRegistrar.checkDevice(this);
    GCMRegistrar.checkManifest(this);
    final String regId = GCMRegistrar.getRegistrationId(this);
    if (regId.equals("")) 
    {          
        GCMRegistrar.register(this, SENDER_ID);
    }

    Log.v("REG ID:",""+regId);

Manifest file is-

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest
