Anyone else having an issue with apps not auto updating? I have auto update enabled, but it is not working and eventually I will get a notification like just now that says I have 28 apps with updates and I have to manually initiate the updates.
Never mind. Solved.

When some of my applications installed from market gets new update, I normaly recieve a small market icon in notification bar. For some reason I don't get such notification any more.
Update for AndroZIP application was released just today, and I did not recieve any notification, I can only see "update aviable" when I manualy enter Market > Downloads.
I have been searching if there is any setting that I could have accidentaly turned off, and only setting I could find is the Market > Downloads > Menu > Notifications. It is set to "Notify me when items are updated".
Am I missing some option? Does anyone know the reason and workaround for this bug/something I overlooked?
I'm pretty sure that notifications don't come through as soon as an update is available in the market. I noticed that a couple of my programs had updates available when looking in the market but couldn't be bothered to update them at the time. A few hours later my phone then decided to notify me that there were updates available. I don't think it's too critical to know that there is an application update the second it comes out.
foyrtcw, thank you for your reply.
I agree with you that immediate updates are not cricital. It's just that, each time I recieved a market update notification it was early in the morning, which made me think that market update service is scheduled to check for updates during night. I am probably wrong about that.
I did not manualy update AndroZIP this morning, and I will leave it that way to see what will happen. Update notification will most likely show up.
Edit: Got my notification finally. Thanks for help.
Ever since I updated to the vanilla rooted Froyo OTA (market issue fixed version) 2 days ago, everything has been working great. The only issue I have seen is that I don't get any notifications when there's an update available for an app that I have installed.
Does anyone else get this? Is there some setting somewhere that I need to enable to start getting these notifications? I thought this was default behavior?
I have the Market setup to show me when updates are available and I have pretty much most of my apps set to allow auto-update.
The only notifications I ever get are when I reboot my phone (not just shutdown as I have quick boot on, but a full reboot) Then the market comes up and will tell me if there are updates, otherwise I get nothing. And it seems that none of my app's auto update either, when I do open the Market and there are updates for the ones I have selected to auto-update they require a manual update.
Any solution to this?

apps that say (manual update) have changed there permissions since the last version.. thats why a manual update is required, so you can review its permisssions.

That answers that one then, thanks for that.
As for the rest, is there some sort of sync profile I may have disabled which is stopping the Market from checking for updates do you know, or is it just the Market app which is actually rubbish.

its always been the same as you for me, even on my old desire, i think the market only checks for updates on boot
I checked off the box in the play store to not allow auto updating. However some apps are still auto updating. For example fb and instagram auto updated. I still get notifications that there are updates available for other apps. Is there something i can do to shut off auto updates for these apps? Thank you
there is an option in gplay store too for removing notification for apps update. facebook and instagram update because there is facebook installer or so installed on system partition, which is not related to gplay store and therefore they still update...but why do you want to turn off auto update and even the notification?
Go to Settings / Apps and deactivate everything with Facebook or Instagram in its Name
You maybe have to choose "show system" in the Apps Menu

Sorry for late reply. I do not want apps updating without my permission. A lorry of times these updates make the app worse for me.
I also noticed that since the last sysytem update (2.38) my battery is significantly worse.
Im thinking about rooting they phone just to get rid of fb and instagram on phone. Wanted to dl the old fb apk that did both need messenger.

I do the same thing, I like to read what has changed in apps before updating also. there has been many times where the update has broken an app and I couldn't go back due to it not being a system app. I like viper rom cause in the installer I can remove system apps like facebook and Instagram before the initial system install and never have them auto update.
Anyone else having issue with Facebook notifications?
Every other app works fine - Google+, Twitter, LinkedIn..etc.
I checked my app settings and notification settings within Android and everything seems to be in order. Even re-installed the Facebook app and still no dice.
When I open the app I see I have notifications, however my phone isn't notifying me of anything related to Facebook. I have open the app to see the notifications within the app.
Anyone else having the same problem?
I am on Pixel 2 XL 8.1 stock.
Did you disable background activity for the app?

No, it is active.
Having the same issue. Also there are times the app doesn't recognize that the phone is connected to WiFi. The app continues to update the feed, but the videos won't auto play until I turn off WiFi then back on.
Have you ever cleared the cache and data under the Google Framework Services trying to push the OTA update? It is said that would break GCM things.
