Description

SDK 8.3.1 I was working on an app with push notification using Firebase module. Suddenly during testing the Firebase Admin SDK server side, iOS devices stops show notifications. So I started investigate, the iPhone got iOS 13.3.1 update but seems to fire the token event correctly. I go back to the pure deviceToken generation creating a new app and find out that registerForPushNotifications not even fire a callback! This is the only code inside the app

var deviceToken = null;
// Wait for user settings to be registered before registering for push notifications

 
// Process incoming push notifications
function receivePush(e) {
    alert('Received push: ' + JSON.stringify(e));
}
// Save the device token for subsequent API calls
function deviceTokenSuccess(e) {
	Ti.API.info(JSON.stringify(e));
    deviceToken = e.deviceToken;
}
 
function deviceTokenError(e) {
    alert('Failed to register for push notifications! ' + e.error);
}
Ti.App.iOS.addEventListener('usernotificationsettings', function registerForPush() {
	Ti.API.error("registerForPush");
    // Remove event listener once registered for push notifications
    Ti.App.iOS.removeEventListener('usernotificationsettings', registerForPush); 
 
    Ti.Network.registerForPushNotifications({
        success: deviceTokenSuccess,
        error: deviceTokenError,
        callback: receivePush
    });
});
 
Ti.App.iOS.registerUserNotificationSettings({
    types: [
        Ti.App.iOS.USER_NOTIFICATION_TYPE_ALERT,
        Ti.App.iOS.USER_NOTIFICATION_TYPE_SOUND,
        Ti.App.iOS.USER_NOTIFICATION_TYPE_BADGE
    ]
});

Yes the provisioning has the Push Notification enabled.
