Cannot obtain apns token in Unity 5.4.0

After calling NotificationServices.RegisterForNotifications in new Unity 5.4.0f3 deviceToken is not received and registrationError also is null. In Unity 5.3.6 it works fine. Maybe anyone can provide a solution for this problem?

That’s a known bug which is being solved as you can see here: Unity Issue Tracker - [iOS] Push Notifications not Enabled in Xcode Project when NotificationServices are used

There is a workaround that could help in the meantime:

You must insert the following line before calling “RegisterForNotifications”:

var unused_var = typeof(UnityEngine.iOS.RemoteNotification);

For example your MonoBehaviour’s start function could look like this:

void Start () {
    var unused_var = typeof(UnityEngine.iOS.RemoteNotification);
    tokenSent = false; 
    NotificationServices.RegisterForNotifications(NotificationType.Alert | NotificationType.Badge | NotificationType.Sound, true); 
}

The statement will change the value of the preprocessor directive “UNITY_USES_REMOTE_NOTIFICATIONS” from default 0 to 1, at “Preprocessor.h” in the trampoline Xcode project.

Another way to do that is manually change the “#define UNITY_USES_REMOTE_NOTIFICATIONS” value to 1.

I hope that helps!

Thanks a lot for response! If to change this directive manually what is the exact place to do it (unity class or xcode project)?
