1) You didn't switch to heap buffer.  Please insert the following statements.

ByteBuffer.setUseDirectBuffer(false);
ByteBuffer.setAllocator(new SimpleByteBufferAllocator());

This is explicitly specified in our getting started guide.

2) You didn't disable ThreadModel.

service.setThreadModel(ThreadModel.MANUAL);

This is also explicitly specified in out thread model configuration tutorial.

3) The size of the response message is 12, but you don't decode until
1036 bytes are received.
