My CBC mobile music app isn't working when my phone goes asleep(won't play in back ground, freezes after two songs) I checked with Samsung Canada and they checked my settings (allow back ground activity, sleeping apps, the apps cache is clean, internet is fine) and everything was ok. I can stream YouTube and radio music apps in the back ground without any problems. The only thing I can think of is the learning adaptive battery the phone has, I can't turn it off. CBC says make sure you the battery power saving mode turned off. One more this app works fine on older Samsung Galaxy phones fine, this app was updated in June. Help for a favorite app.

So I want to have Pandora play continuously, as it currently stops when the screen locks. After some searching, it looks like the fix is to keep mobile data always on.
However 'Settings > Wireless & Networks > Mobile Networks > Enable always-on mobile data' DOES NOT EXIST. What gives?
From what I can tell by doing a simple Google image search, the only phones to even have this option are pre ICS/JB.
If the option has been removed, is there any way to bring it back? If not, can I do anything else to have Pandora keep playing after the screen has been locked for a few minutes? I don't have any battery optimization apps (JuiceDefender, etc) installed that could be causing data to drop.
I'm on a GSM Galaxy Nexus (T-Mobile) running 4.1.1 rooted.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advanced.
Pandora stops playing when your screen turns off? That seems more like a network throttling problem. Once your screen turns off it throttles down to 2g? I've never had a problem with pandora not playing when the screen locks.
Yeah, the next song wont load.
I don't think it's throttling down to 2G, I'm pretty sure it just disconnects from mobile data.
I'm not the only one with this issue (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=698172)
That is very strange.
Instead of trying to set data to always on, try setting screen on to always on.

Data always on while the screen is off is the default. There is no settings option to control what happens with mobile data when the screen is off. There's an option for WiFi, but not mobile data.
Are you sure you don't have an app that's turning off your mobile data when your screen is off? That's usually what's happening in these situations.
Could also be an issue with Pandora. Have you tried other apps and experienced the same thing? Also, you'd be able to see the data being turned back on when you turn the screen on (it takes several seconds). If you turn the screen on and it shows its connected in the status bar, the data isn't turning off and you're having another problem.

I'm sure there is no other app that's controlling this. I did however mess around with multiple 'toggle' apps when I first got the phone. Maybe I toggled the wrong thing. Would the setting stick even through an un-install of the app?
When I unlock the phone sometimes, the internet icon in the status bar is grey. It turns to blue shortly after. From what I have read though, this is normal to some extent, right?
I think you're right about this being a Pandora issue. I just realized that I use the default music app to stream all of my music through Google Play with the phone locked for hours on end and no issues at all.
Not sure how to fix Pandora though. The songs stop playing even on wifi when I lock the screen. I even have 'Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep' set to Always. I'd hate to not use Pandora much because of this, since I just find out how to get unlimited skips and no ads.

Yeah I could do that when plugged in and charging, but I don't want to kill battery when not.
Are you under clocking your device?
You could try the WIFI high performance widget when you are on WiFi, but I don't know if will help when on mobile data.

It's not the app. Been using Pandora since I got the Gnex with no issues. Do you have some battery saving app? That may turn off data when screen is off...
Edit: Also AOKP has the auto data off in settings I believe.. are you on stock rooted ROM? I saw you say you have no app but something is turning off your data.

WIFI high performance totally works! Thank you. The strange thing is even though the app doesn't work over mobile data (obviously), Pandora magically started working with the phone locked on mobile data. I even uninstalled the app, and it still works over. However, it won't continue streaming for me on wifi unless I enable WIFI high performance. Not a huge deal, I'm just happy it works.

I'm rooted on the stock ROM and I'm sure nothing is turning it off. It actually magically works now over mobile date, but I still have issues on wifi unless I enable the widget mentioned above. Yours streams over wifi no problem?
Hi all,
I'm running several apps that should run all the time (AdGuard, Network Speed Meter) or for a long time (speed trap warner,...) but OxygenOS kills them after a certain period. Some of them restart automatically, some don't. Of course all of these apps are 'not battery optimized'. Is there any chance to prevent OxygenOS from killing them?
Are there custom ROMs that can overcome this problen?
I'm on the latest OxygenOS Pie Beta, but the behavior was similar on Android O...
Thanks a lot,
W
Did you try locking the app via recents menu?
Thank for the info, didn't know that.
Unfortunately it doesn't help, Adguard and the network monitor don't appear in recents. The speed trap warner automatically starts and stops when I'm in the car, i don't want to open recents manually every time.

This is not changing anything,e ven with disable battery disabled, even with adaptative battery disabled.
I have the same problem. I have not found any solution whatsoever. This is really frustrating. I've made sure apps aren't optimized. Advanced optimization is disabled. Developer options background limit is at standard. I've pinned the apps in recent apps and it still happens. Apps get killed all the time.
For example,
1. I use Google Fit to start tracking a run. Within 10 minutes of tracking, the app is closed and workout not tracked. Its not even like i touched the phone and opened other apps during this.
2. I have VoIP account setup in the default dialer. Calls come through only 50% of the time cause the dialer is closed.
3. YouTube Music, constantly gets closed if i simply pause the music. Within 2 minutes, the app is closed.
4. Trying to transfer 15GB of files through Explorer app from phone to file server, never succeeds if i don't watch the app and keep the screen on.
5. Plex gets closed and therefore my photos don't auto backup with the phone is plugged in.
This is absolutely ridiculous! Why the hell a phone with 8GB of RAM is killing apps is beyond me!
Custom ROM on the same phone, like Lineage OS, no issues. Can have optimization on, battery manager on and all. In fact, battery life is better on custom when its not killing the apps! Seems to be the only solution until OOS can stop killing apps so aggressively.

My app is not killed when i lock it in the switch app menu

Working fine for me....even with battery saver on. Did you install any battery-life utilities like Greenify?
Hello,
I have an issue with my Note 10+ where apps that are running in the background are being killed and they show no notifications.
For example, if I'm downloading an app from the Play Store and I went to home screen or switched to another window, it just stops installing, until you go back to the Play Store then it resumes installing the app. Also, the auto-update for apps is not working at all. I have to go to the Play Store and install the apps manually.
One more example is the Gmail app. I don't get notifications instantly when I receive an email. I get all email notifications when I unlock the phone.
I have tried everything related to cache erasing/disabling battery optimization for the Play Store (and Play Services/Download Manger) and Gmail, making sure that these apps are not in the sleeping apps list, etc. I even tried wiping the phone's cache and resetting to factory settings. Nothing works and the issue persists. I have adaptive battery enabled, and Power Mode sat to "Optimized" (PS: I tried disabling the adaptive battery and setting the Power Mode to "High Performance" with no luck.
My device is Exynos.
Anybody facing the same issues? This is really annoying and frustrating, and I'm thinking of switching the phone because of this issue.
No such issue. I don't use adaptive battery nor anything under app power management; also no auto optimisations or auto restart. And of course no app, God forbid, that clears or otherwise optimises memory.

I am facing the same issue on my Note10+ and S10+ and even with my Pixel. I think this is an Android problem and not manufacturer specific. I have also disabled any app power saving and app optimizations but whenever I manually check the Play Store there will usually be several apps waiting to be updated.
This happens with my Apple devices too. My iPhone XS Max and 11" iPad Pro never auto updates apps.
So I have the Chinese firmware. I really would prefer to hold onto it as I most likely will be moving to China within the next year. I notice that when my phone is on standby all data flow for some apps seem to stop (especially whatsapp and snapchat). However if I boot up a game or play a video the messages start back coming through.
I have gone into the settings and turned off all restrictions on battery saver for these apps but they still dont respond once the phone has gone to sleep. Is there any way to get them to stop doing that?
On a side note tinder just doesnt work for me I get a location error even though it has full access to my gps.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have global version. it's in Security App > Settings> Battery Optimization > Turn off mobile data when device is locked
