Mobile/background data not working properly with Android 9 - Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers

Hi,
I have strange behaviour with the latest update to Android 9 (as well as with the security patches from Dec as well as with the latest one of January):
If I'm on mobile data I get messages/emails from Signals and gmail only after opening the app manually. I already checked that the apps are not battery optimized and are allowed to use background data. Does anybody else also facing this issue? Which settings am I missing to change?
Furthermore I have an even more strange issue with working profile: I'm running whatsapp in working profile, it does not work on mobile data at all (even not if I open it manually). Access to internet works in working profile (e.g. chrome), but I can neither send nor receive messages on mobile data. Does any background app also needs to be not battery optimized ?

Argh, finally I got it. Resetting the apn settings solved the problem, see https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/help/mobile-data-issue-pie-update-t3884664

[Q] I have two apps that are failing to show background notifications.

I'm running CM 6.1 Stable. I have two apps installed that I have configured to provide me with background notifications: reddit is fun and Foursquare. Reddit is supposed to check for new messages hourly and Foursquare us supposed to check for friend updates every 10 minutes. Neither app is functioning in this regard.
Has anyone else had an issue like this? Is there by chance some setting that prevents 3rd party background notifications from working that I may have enabled by accident? Gmail notifications are still working.
I checked my system log for errors or anything unusual while enabling or disabling the Foursquare notification feature and there was nothing that I could see.
Do apps need to have a service running to provide this sort if functionality, or can the Android system simply let apps schedule periodic tasks? I ask because I don't see any services running for these two apps, and if they are required, that would be a problem.
try moving it back to ur phone not ur sdcard......

playstore: check your connection and try again
facebook: error loading news feed, tap to retry

whatsapp: sometimes i get notifications for new messages/calls but sometimes not, and when i open the app itself i get the notifications
facebook messenger: unable to login, but once i login using any other wifi, now i get messages
similar things are with many other apps like pages manager, snapchat etc.
Hike is working fine! (indian messenger app)
i got this problem first time from facebook messenger, it wasn't loading new messages, then suddenly facebook stopped loading and finally play store and everything else.
i tried updating all apps, uninstalling and reintsalling these apps, uninstall and reinstall play store app completely [removed even factory version and used an olde backup i had on my pc to install it again] , but nothing worked!!!
is there any serious issue with android going on these days or what?

Start with restarting modem, then turn off sync and see if something changes.
There is also option to turn off wifi power saving in service menu (it was somewhere in forum).
Go as close to modem as possible.

i already did modem resetting, restarting and even allocated dedicated IP for the android device. but nothing happens, though i found a small thing, when i restart modem, things work and i get push messages/notifications for a very small amount time say 4-5 seconds thats it!

Not receiving some push notifications

Has anyone experienced problems with some notifications? Just recently I stopped receiving push notifications for both Hangouts and Whatsapp? My messages only appear when I enter the app. I've even cleared the app data for Hangouts, uninstalled, reinstalled, and it solved the problem but only temporarily. I can't determine if it's a phone, marshmallow, or app issue. This is my first time on marshmallow and I've never experienced this before coming from KitKat on my HTC M8.
I've had the same issue since updating the OS software last week. Any help on this would be much appreciated. I'm not receiving push notifications for any apps anymore. All settings are turned on to receive them. I've even downloaded an app to push the notifications and it doesn't work.
Are you sure DND mode is not active?
Absolutely positive.
I managed to fix it through a whatsapp forum about not receiving push notification for that particular app. Hopefully this helps the OP.
When I got my phone I restricted background data on google services because it used 10gb of data within a 10 minute period of turning on my phone, mostly coming from that. For the first 2 months I was still getting push notifications for all my apps, but with the most recent OS update something must have changed it so the settings were no longer compatible.
So I re-enabled background data on google services and it started to work.
See if that helps. If not, I'm stuck on ideas.
Good luck an let us know how you go.
I was wondering if anyone had any problems with yahoo mail I only recently get emails notifications Wen I open the app I can't find anywhere in settings Were you can change sync every 5 minutes or so on I don't know what it's set at

[Q] Facebook notifications do not work

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.

Similar problem with bootleggers on my Redmi note 5 pro

strange vibration after booting

Does anyone of you also noticed that the phone is vibrating two times shortly after entering pin of the sim after a restart? there is no notification about this and im wondering where this vibration is coming from.
In safe boot nothing vibrates, so it must be an app causing this. is there a possiblity to get a log of the phone which app is causing after boot the vibration? it happened after i have added manualy an apn entry for mobile data. before, i made a factory reset, added wifi and connected to google play and updated all apps. no additional apps were installed only the ones that were preinstalled were updated.
i also noticed that the automatic apn entry retrieval (download internet settings) via settings is not adding any apn.
this is a international german dual sim xz2c with latest april patch. network is o2 by netzclub.
after testing i think that it might be due to whatsapp. after whatsapp instalaltion it happened. need to test it if it happens still without whatsapp.
