Interestingly, if I add the colon after @selector(timerFireMethod) to read @selector(timerFireMethod:) the timerFireMethod doesn't get called anymore, in Debug AND Release builds.

btw, this method doesn't have any parameter, it's definition is:

- (void)timerFireMethod
{
  // do something
}


The colon is an integral part of the method's name, so timerFireMethod: and timerFireMethod are two different methods. So the result you report is what you'd expect.

The usual signature for a timer callback is:

- (void) timerFireMethod:(NSTimer*) timer

and naturally what you pass in @selector(...) must match exactly.

Maybe try that?
