that's a bug on Android. See AGIOS-35. It explains what iOS will do for
1.1.0 (basically following what JS already does)

Do something similar to what you already do for the enroll:
https://github.com/aerogear/aerogear-android/blob/master/src/org/jboss/aerogear/android/authentication/AuthenticationModule.java#L50

Ah, the http basic for device registration.

Have you tried setting a header:

like:

setRequestHeader("Authorization", "Basic " + encodeBase64(user,password))




But for the demo, we are (currently) using this branch:
https://github.com/aerogear/aerogear-unified-push-server/tree/quickstart_base

Here, we have NO auth for device registration.
