i have a problem with my c2dm application. when i run the app from eclipse and send a message from my server it arrives on my phone. but if i send another message from my server after this initial message it keeps sending my first message e.g when i launch the app i send a message "Test" then i send Test2 however i never recieve test2 instead i reieve test. on the second attempt it says in logcat cant open keycharmap file
Logcat:

any help would be very much appreciated. (there will also be a tutorial from me coming through on c2dm because every tutorial out there on this topic sucks)

if it helps i've narrowed it down to my message received activity not displaying the payload.
i have set my notification text to display the payload and that works
