First of all, this thread is not for ranting about the issue. This is about finding a solution. So, please save your rants for other threads.
Many users are reporting notification problems using their LeEco Le Pro 3. I actually refuse to call it a problem. EUI is very aggressive about the memory and power management. And these options are by default turned on. There are few tools available that can allow apps to run more freely in the background. I absolutely hate that stock android doesn't provide any such tool to limit wakelocks or control apps running in the background. So, for every android phones I have used in the past, I used Greenify, Amplify, AppOps to gain those controls.
Now obviously we don't want all of the apps to get limited. A smartphone is about connectivity, and timely syncing is essential for some of the apps. Below are some of the steps that can be taken to get more control of the apps running in the background.
1. Notification Management
Go to Settings>Notification management
Set as 'Important notice' for all the apps you need more frequent notification from.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. Disable Auto Cleaning
EUI automatically cleans up app from memory. Disable it for the apps which you need to run in the background.
Go to Phone Manager > Power saving management > App protection
Disable auto cleaning for the necessary apps. I recommend having it enabled for your launcher, if you are using a 3rd party one.
This can also be accessed from the recents menu. Pull down on the desired apps to keep it in memory. This is sometimes useful, because for whatever reason, not all the apps are listed on the previous menu.
2. Sleep Mode Clean up.
Go to Phone Manager > Power saving management
a. Disable Lock-screen cleanup. (This works like the greenify app, once the screen goes off, the background apps get killed)
b. Disable Ultra-long standby during sleep. (Phone basically goes to power-saving mode at night)
Chose depending on what you need. I am keeping the Ultra-long standby on, but Lock-screen clean up off.
3. Wakelock Limit
This works like the Amplify app, but unfortunately we don't have control on which wakelocks to block.
Go to Phone Manager > Power saving management > Align wake up
Disable the options you prefer. They are self-explanatory. I have both of them on, but not having any sync issues with the apps I care about.
4. Auto Launch Limit
Self Explanatory. I used to access this option form AppOps module. Manages which apps can wake up the device from sleep. Enable for apps needed.
Go to Phone Manager > Privacy safety > Manage Auto Launch
5. Background resource control
Dial *#*#46360000#*#* and uncheck 'Enable background resource control'.
Of course all these steps are gonna take a toll on the battery to some extent. Play with the settings as you wish. Every people has different needs. Choose whatever works best for you. Feel free to share your observations and recommendations. I shall update this thread accordingly.
LeEco's latest update actually disabled most of these battery saving features by default. All apps are allowed to run in the background and wake by themselves. So, you may want to do the opposite now. Block wakelock and restrict background operation for the apps you do not want.
Looking forward to trying this, thanks for sharing!
It's impressive they added all these battery saving features into the rom. I really like this phone alot.

If the above does not work, which they did not for me, another member discovered a thread from the India forums mentioning a bug in EUI software causing the notification issue. A fix that appears to be working for me so far is:
Dial *#*#46360000#*#* and disable “Enable background resource control”.

Holy **** I think that did it, including the pesky Nine email client issue that none of the other settings helped.
I still had to add Nine to allow auto-launch but I think it's working. Going to continue testing .
I wonder how the guys at Indian Forum discovered this.

Now, you may want to do the opposite for some of the apps to stop them running in the background

Hi!
I am on a LEX720, with current 5.8.018S (build id WAXCNFN5801811012S).
I tried all the steps from OP and this makes notifications much more reliable (as the apps continue to run in the background and won't be killed). But google cloud messaging is still not working correctly (and the steps in the OP don't fix this).
I tested like this:
I made sure that the application (I tested with the "Signal" app) is definitely not running (i.e. manually killed it over adb).
Then I sent a message to my device and monitored if the Google Play Services are receiving a notification on the device and in fact, yes it does.
BUT: The target app get's NOT started (and so I won't see the message until I open the messaging app later myself).
When I look into logcat I see that Play Services received the C2DM (cloud-to-device-message) but did not deliver the intent (which should cause the relevant app to be started, if it is not running yet):
Code:
11-16 15:33:34.688 W/GCM-DMM (31553): broadcast intent callback: result=CANCELLED forIntent { act=com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE flg=0x10000000 pkg=org.thoughtcrime.securesms (has extras) }
This behaviour is the same for me for all apps which use Google cloud notification (WhatsApp, Threema, Signal, etc..).
It can also easily be tested with this app here: Push Notification Tester
Everything works fine as long as the app is open. But if you request a notification in 20 seconds, and then in the meantime kill the app (by swiping it away in the recent apps screen), you won't get any notification. Just the warning message in logcat (just filter for "W/GCM-DMM").
Can anybody else confirm this?

Have you tried this?: Dial *#*#46360000#*#* and disable “Enable background resource control”
That's the only thing that's made my notifications finally from within apps (aside from also enabling notifications in settings, priority notifications, not 'cleaning' apps etc. I don't use what'sapp though. But before that, google clock wouldn't wake it for alarms or timers... now it does. I also wasn't getting push notifications for Voxer messages or in the Amazon Flex driver's app that I use for work. They all work fine now after disabling that background resource control crap. They need to remove that as being on by default immediately!!!

Yes, I have disabled this setting. Nevertheless push notifications don't work as expected.
As soon as the app which should receive the push notification is no longer running in the background, the notification will not be shown. This affects every app which uses Google's push notification service.
Here is a short demonstration video how it normally should work (shown on a Nexus 6): https://goo.gl/photos/zV6D4dKm7hufnTTi6
(The app in the video is the Push Notification Tester app I've mentioned before.)
As you can see in the video normally notifications will be received, even if the target app process is not even running. Google Play Services takes care to send an Intent which starts the app so that it can handle the incoming notification.
Unfortunately this seems not work on my LePro 3.
Does this work for anybody else?

I cannot seem to recreate that issue. I set the notification delay to 10 seconds, started the test notification, swiped up on the app to remove it from memory and about 4 seconds later I got my test notification.
However, if I put the timer to 30 seconds and start the test notification and then go to the app details and force stop it, I never get my notification, I am not sure if this is by design though.

I am getting notification even if I set it to 5 mins, and remove the app from memory. Doesn't make sense, why it would be different....
androcheck, did you reboot after disabling background resource control?
Also make sure autostart is on for relevant app
It's working (I am stupid)!

Thank you for the hint. I am stupid, I really forgot to allow auto-start for the test app (I know it was mentioned in the OP and I have read it, no idea why I forgot it). If I enable the test-app in "Phone Manager" -> "Privacy Safety" -> "Manage auto launch" everything works as expected and notifications are displayed even if the app process has been killed in the meantime.
Thank you all for the feedback!
I did a few more tests and I unambiguously could verify that the
"Manage auto launch" permission is directly related with Google Push Notifications working or not.
Now that I think about it, it also makes sense this way. If you don't allow auto-launch for an app, this doesn't just mean, that it can't launch automatically at boot time, but also means that it cannot be launched automatically via a Push Message from the app publisher (if the app is not running yet). Hence push notifications will not work after the app has ended.

AFAIK, this is by design. If you use force-stop from Settings, then nothing in this app will run again automatically. This includes the BroadcastReceiver which receives the Push Notification Intents. Only after one of the app components is started again manually (e.g. by manually launching the app again) the app will receive Broadcasts again.
OP, you're missing a step in step 3, it's phone manager > power savings management > Align wakeup

In your phone, go in settings and click on power option, in that select background app management and disable the app for which you want to receive notifications for.
Else go to notification center in settings and check whether you have blocked the app from receiving any notifications from that particular app..
Thanck you it work
9.1.3 seems to pretty flawless so far. But there is one issue. Most apps don't get lock-screen notifications. Does anybody else have this issue too?
You can test this with the open source app (no ads) Radiodroid2. It is not possible to get a lock-screen notification for that app, despite tweaking all kind of settings. But it works fine on Nokia, Motorola, Nexus, Pixel devices for example.
---
Just to make sure this is not a config issue ... I wiped my device and reinstalled everything:
- Reset to China beta 8.12.27
- Flashed TWRP
- Wiped data, dalvik, and cache
- Flashed eu 9.1.3
- Flashed Magisk
check advanced setting in lock screen settings for on lock screen setting and notification settings per app like screenshot.

Thank you. I actually had tried that, but it only works for some applications (the minority unfortunately).
Could you please try the app RadioDroid 2?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.programmierecke.radiodroid2&hl=en_US
(It is an open source radio app without ads ....)
I should be able to pause music on the lockscreen (like on all the other phones before), but I am not able to figure it out.
I hope you can do it.
Youre right. You have to go to the app's notification settings, then disable and again enable "Show notifications"... Every Time when you start the app..

Hi Guys
Got my X50 Pro Plus and im absolutely love it!
Well, i lied, not entirely love it due to the friggin Os with all the frigging bloatware and notification issues...
After spending 5 days with the phone i fixed some of the issues related to Notifications.
So once first setting up the phone it's time for House cleaning:
Uninstall all garbage apps
Disable all Vivo apps:
Settings > Notification > Notification and status bar > App notification management.
Disable Smart notification control Settings:
Notification > Notification and status bar > App notification management > Select apps >
Enable notifications for selected apps:
Settings > Notification > Notification and status bar > App notification management > Select apps >
Add apps to High background power consumption:
Settings > Battery > High background power consumption
Enable Autostart:
Settings > Applications and permissions > Permission > Autostart

Any issues with notifications? :silly:
I have debloated quite a lot unfortunately I also managed to delete some essential Phone app which made the phone crash right after unlock. had to factory reset it and start over, now it's almost perfect still hat the OS and can't get a new launcher running as they all exit when pressing the home button. Other than that it's a great phone and no notification issues so far

I've gotten my launcher to stick on my Nex 3, after you set it to default you have to restart the phone and it will stay. also make sure you have made a vivo account that way you can change the launcher anyway
The always on display only shows a notification for one app, even though I have 4 others checked in the AOD settings. And the battery optimization is preventing notifications for at least 5 of my apps even though I changed the battery settings and also used ADB to get rid of com.vivo.pem and other stuff that supposedly caused this.
Anyone have any solutions to these? I have the global version
My notifications work well.
Settings -battery-power consumption - unresctrict them
Also info the individual apps and remove the battery optimization.
Hope that helps.
TS, did the advise work for you ???
You dont need to get rid of any of these apps:
I am using Origin OS and this is how the notification works:
Setting -> Apps & Permissions -> Permission Management -> Permission -> Choose Permission i.e. Autostart (needed for whatsapp/gmail/insta etc) go thru list and select apps -> follow with "Display on lock screen" and so on.
Worked like a charm here for me.
