OnMessage of (Azure) push notification is not working - azure

Question

I have tried first time Azure push notifications, now after implementation, i'm get stuck on onMessage receive. OnMessage receive is not getting hit. App getting register successfully. I did not made any change in AndroidManifest file, I'm uploading the code. Few settings below:-
Package name:- pACKAGE_NAME
[assembly: Permission(Name = "pACKAGE_NAME.permission.C2D_MESSAGE")] [assembly: UsesPermission(Name = "pACKAGE_NAME.permission.C2D_MESSAGE")] [assembly: UsesPermission(Name = "com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE")] [assembly: UsesPermission(Name = "android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS")] [assembly: UsesPermission(Name = "android.permission.INTERNET")] [assembly: UsesPermission(Name = "android.permission.WAKE_LOCK")]

I've prepared a XAMARIN forums sample APP with Notification Hub. Here is link: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AuKd5Hvq8SOlo8Fukh4KcX6GtIoPmQ.
Compare with your code and see if you missed anything. This App uses the Xamarin.GooglePlayServices.Gcm package version 25.0.0 (instead of latest version: 29.0.0.2).
