Is there a TTL or expiration or some sort of timeout feature for C2DM messages?
I would like the C2DM message to be received within 10 minutes by the device, any longer
C2DM does not have such a feature. Please have a look here:
how to set valid time period for android c2dm message?
Update:
Google just released a new version of c2dm called "Google Cloud Messaging (GCM)". With GCM it is possible to use a timeout for your messages:
I really recommend the Google I/O 2012 "Google Cloud Messaging for Android" session available here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoaP6hcDctM
Additionally you can read through the GCM ttl section: http://developer.android.com/guide/google/gcm/adv.html#ttl
