I'm trying to create push notifications for my Windows 8 phone app. I'm using the example from Microsoft (code and demo video links below) which works fine through the emulator but when I debug to the device instead the app runs but never connects to the WPF app which sends the notification. The emulator works fine every time however. I'm making sure to do the following;

* VS has to be in Administrator mode for the WPF app
* In the phone app, in the method SubscribeToService() I've changed the address to the
name of my pc; `string baseUri = "http://MY-PC-NAME:8000/RegistrationService/Register?uri={0}";`
* I'm always running the WPF app before the Phone app
* I have my firewall turned off to allow access to port 8000

Is there something extra I have to do to get the app to work on an actual device?
