I finally struggled the problem. With the new GCM implementation, there is no need to start the service that brings the information, is Google who starts it just when it is needed depending on the options of the push.

Intent intent = new Intent(GCMNotificationService.class, context);
context.startService(intent);

You will stop having problems with cached notifications, receiving two times the same notification and some weird other behaviour.
