Getting notification is not the real issue, I want to notify my app about incoming notification so I can perform specific task in onReceive method of broadcast receiver (If anything is there for notification) – aks Dec 27 '16 at 11:39
have you created fcm service which extends FirebaseMessagingService? – Anjali Dec 27 '16 at 11:40
onMessageReceived will automatically called whenever you have new notification – Anjali Dec 27 '16 at 11:40
Yes I have got your point,is there any way to pass application context in onMessageReceived so I can show toast message whenever I receive notification. – aks Dec 27 '16 at 11:51

Please refer : https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/android/receive

You can keep data payload instead of notification payload in you Message from server. This will call onMessageReceived irrespective of your application is in foreground or background.
