Answer 1

I ran into this problem today and it was caused by the activity not being registered or added to AndroidManifest.xml. I thought I had it in there but it wasn't. Also, no errors were being logged by trying to invoke the action with its intent.

I figured this out by creating an intent and then calling startAcitivty(intent) without using a notification. It then gave me an error stating the activity was likely missing from the manifest.

If none of the other answers solve your problem then hopefully this will. Usually tricky problems are the result of something simple and silly.
