[Q] Screen off => no sync? - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Hi!
I have a Nexus 7 (2013) with the latest stock 4.4.2. For some reason, at some point it stopped syncing Gmail and displaying any notifications when the screen is off. WiFi is always enabled, sync is enabled and the moment I wake it up it just pulls everything in 1-2 seconds. I tried a full reset a couple of days ago, but it didn't solve the issue and the tablet still doesn't notify me about anything when the screen is off. What could cause this behavior? I would appreciate your suggestions.
Thanks!

Issue with losing data connection as soon as screen turns off

Hi all,
I have the strangest issue with my phone:
Whenever i'm streaming any music or podcasts on my phone (3g connection), the playback works perfectly for a couple of minutes and then it quits and does not resume until i turn the screen on again. As background, I was using the Android Revolution for a couple of months and was thinking that this might be caused by some sort of power saving feature, that cuts the data once the screen is turned off. I'm back to stock now and I'm still having the same issue. This is not application-related, since the same thing is happening with pocketcasts, spotify and google play music.
Can't find any other threads with the same kind of description of the issue, so I'm thinking I'm alone with the issue. The only thing I can think of would be my mobile service provider, but it makes no sense that the data connection would drop immediately when the screen is turned off. Also, the sleep mode has no effect on the issue.
Does anyone have any ideas!?
Try turning off SLEEP MODE from the power tab under settings.

Power Saver Mode (done by HTC) has an option that Disables data every time the screen goes off.
Although while I am streaming music on soundcloud , It still works with screen Off .

Just to let you guys know, that this was in fact caused by Android Revolution. I switched back to stock rom and was having issues with the play store not downloading apps that you have selected from the browser-based store. Had the same kind of issues with AR, so was thinking that the problem is still continuing. Used the stock rom over the weekend and noticed that even though i'm getting the random pause in music every now and then, the overall experience is way better.

Very strange issues with my M8

I've been using unlocked international M8 for more than 5 months, and I've never had any problems.
Few days ago I updated it to 4.4.4, and everything worked perfectly. But today I've noticed some strange issuses.
1. Screen turns on by itself
2. Auto-rotation is off, but screen is still rotating in every angle (including 180). I can even rotate screen on lockscreen, home screen or app list.
3. I can't browse the web because pages are constantly refreshing them by themselfes.
Phone is fully stock, never rooted.
Anyone has similar problem? Or does anyone know why is this happening and how to solve it? Any help is appreciated.
Random bugs after an update can often be resolved by backing up your personal data and doing a factory reset.

I am getting a Green flash when waking the Zenwatch. Aynone else?

I just bought my Asus zenwatch today and I updated it all the way to 5.1.1. I noticed that when I turn off the "always on" feature, when the screen is off and I tap the screen to wake it, a green screen flashes real quick before the screen wakes.
Has anyone else had this issue? I feel like when I updated to 5.1.1 alot of weird things have been happening. I was not able to connect for a while and the screen randomly turned off like if it got stuck.
I have already uninstalled and reinstalled and done factory resets on the watch and the phone. I am still getting the green screen flicker.
I don't know what I should try next. On the Asus website they have 2 previous updates and no android 5.1.1 on there. Can I somehow roll back to an older version of the zenwatch? or should I try to reinstall the Android 5.1.1 update?

Facebook Messenger problem on Marshmallow

Hi. On almost every MM rom for M8 I have a strange problem w FB Messenger: messages don't come or come delayed when screen is off. In battery settings I turn off optimization for Messenger and even after that, when I turn off screen messages aren't received, even after a few minutes after turning screen off. I have this issue on stock rom, stock GPE, CM13 and few other roms I tested. On Lollipop everything works fine. Anyone also have this problem or know how to solve it? It drives my crazy, I don't know it is issue with MM, M8 or Messenger, but I try to fix this about 2 months and nothing helped.
