Push Notifications

Hello
I have massive problems with push Gmail messages or Whatsapp . These come only if I make the display on .
These issues are also discussed in OnePlus forum .
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/push-notification-issues.451149/
You have this problem or not there solutions ?

Yup, I have the same problem and trust me, thousands of other people seem to have them as well even on other phones. What I found out so far is that it's a feature of Doze in Marshmallow that's supposed to save battery.
People on here and OnePlus forums have recommended to me to either set notification priority of apps you have problems with to TREAT AS PRIORITY in App Notifications in Settings.
Other thing that was recommended was going into battery, select BATTERY OPTIMIZATION from the drop down menu, select ALL APPS and disable battery optimization for apps you want to get notifications from instantly when get pushed to you.
Now, that's all nice and dandy but, for me at least, neither of these options work. And a lot of apps are impacted, not just Gmail/Inbox/WhatsApp/Twitter/Flashscore etc...
Any insights and fixes would be appreciated because it's really annoying. I get emails from work that are sometimes quite urgent and if my phone is in "Doze Mode", I don't get notified which kinda destroys the whole purpose of push notifications in the first place.

Exactly the same problem here as described above by Donjuan89, tried the same solutions, even installed the PNF app but that also does not work.
This is very annoying to say the least, plus other bugs like no ringtone, the memory issue, the fact that Dashcharge is closed source, sources released but no stock recovery, the phone is quite a disappointment.
It shows that they didn't even do basic testing.

Seems not being a OnePlus problem...same issues on my Galaxy S6 edge...

disable dozemode then test greenify https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oasisfeng.greenify&hl=de

Try "Push Notification Fixer" root app from PlayStore.

I had the same issue, only with GMail (WhatsApp has been fixed in the meantime I think).
I am on Oxygen 3.2.4, I set Gmail notifications "TREAT AS PRIORITY", it seems working!
Does it work for you on latest OS release?

5 Issues with Lineage OS on Samsung Galaxy S6

Hi All
First time really contributing to this but I feel like some super-duper hacker (not that I know anything!). I'm smart and can play around with things. I actually trained as a lawyer, went into recruitment but am now considering moving into computing! This is fun and you can be involved in projects. However my eye has developed a nasty twitch... Recruitment is dead now anyway. (Any tips on how I can begin getting into programming/app development/ XDA work etc whatever it is would be appreciated, (I literally have no idea where to go but I'd like to!)).
Anyway, back on topic:-
So...I've been up for the past 24 hours with a new laptop and at first rescuing my Samsung Galaxy S6 which got caught in a bootloop with no recovery, (had to hard reset, lost all data), upgraded Android to Nougat. It all started when I went to do a recovery boot to get Magisk to work but it all went haywire. :crying:
Happy to give you a system specs - models - builds etc, if there's a good way of doing that let me know and I'll post so you techies can take a look and see what might be the reasons behind the issues. I'm running a 'bug report' through Developer Options at the moment and can post this if useful? I have a Bug Report that I've generated if this is useful to anyone in getting to the bottom of these issues, let me know and I can send...
Ok, so with no further waffling, the issues I've seen so far in the short time I've had this lineage-14.1-20170307-UNOFFICIAL-Nexus7420-zerofltexx-2 (this is the Zip file that I found for the Samsung Galaxy S6 which I understand is only developmental at the moment, it doesn't have its own one yet?)... (in descending order of importance):-
1. Fastcharging - this is very important to me. This seems to have stopped working. How can we get this back? Potentially a dealbreaker with the ROM if this can't be sorted quickly.
2. EE I should be receiving 4G++ super duper speeds on EE. This is really impressive and is very important again. However, since flashing the ROM etc, it's only connecting to T-Mobile (a connected network to EE but doesn't benefit from their 4G++ network, EE bought T-Mobile in the UK ages ago). I've contacted EE about this as I thought it may just be a settings issue. They sent me settings though it's still not working. Potentially a dealbreaker with the ROM if this can't be sorted quickly.
3. Whatsapp VoiceNotes - I use WhatsApp voicenotes all the time; it's a crucial part of my day. Since upgrading there are two issues I can see with this:- a) there is an interference noise that ruins the clarity of each recording sent, it's there the whole time; and b) the recording itself sounds like it's slowed down and doesn't sound normal or right. At the moment this is unusabule and it's massively important, I'd imagine to most people too. Potentially a dealbreaker with the ROM if this can't be sorted quickly.
4. Magisk - The reason for embarking on the entire debacle of the past 24 hours has been to be able to hide my root. That's why I wanted Magisk in the first place so I could use the apps like banking apps and SnapChat and Virgin TV that in draconian fashion refuse to let one use them when it sees it's a rooted device. Magisk to the rescue (in theory). So when I load up Magisk Manager now under SafetyNet Check Success, the basicIntegrity option is sometimes fine though now it's showing 'X'; and 'ctsProfile:false' is permanently showing. I've hidden Google Play Services and Google Play as I read this can cause issues. It does show #superuser in the dropdown and I'm not sure if this is a legacy from SuperSu I had before (don't think so as I did a complete reboot) or if this is part of the app?
5. Torch - torch option on settings panel doesn't seem to yield any torchlight at all. I wonder if other apps work or if there's anything the techies can do here?
Thanks so much for reading and I look forward to helping or assisting in solving in whatever way I can.

So in addition to these I've also discovered a further three issues:-
6. WhatsApp camera not working - you can take a photo within WhatsApp but it doesn't progress to the launch screen to the next screen to send the photo. Strangely, video clips do seem to work...
7. Bluetooth headset doesn't seem to be working anymore
8. Sky Sports App once you get past permissions and everything to watch the show it freezes on the loading step. I imagine this is something to do with the modified ROM/Kernel?

9. I'll also add in here that call volume and volume in general seem really low.
As a result of these nine bugs I'm going to have to revert back to an older version, quite possibly Stock Android, unfortunately... :crying:

Android 10 update now force closes all my background apps

Hello everyone, i've been experiencing this problem for a while now: every time i put an app in the background (swipe up on gesture / middle button in traditional), Android immediately closes it for me. I keep seeing in the list of open apps (long swipe up on gesture / square key in traditional) the apps I should have in the background but as soon as I open them it's like I'm starting them for the first time, not saving anything I was doing before. So far i've been able to live with it, but now I can't postpone this problem anymore.
What i tried so far:
Restarted the phone several time
Turned off adaptive battery and battery optimization
Turned off energy saving
Didn't touch anything in the developer settings
And i got another issue probably linked to this one: in the GMail app, the notifications for multiple accounts only works to the account you are viewing, not to the others. (Example: If i'm connected to two accounts, A and B, and i'm viewing B's emails, if i receive an email on A's account the notification won't work. If i receive the email on B's account while i'm viewing A's emails, it won't work either).
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Just in case you want to know i'm currently on 11.0.5.0 build.
EDIT 2: Link to my reply with a possible solution to the application issue: LINK

Xiaomi team for our device is at fault. If you want the best android experience you should buy Pixel phones.

I'm also having this problem. Seems that restart helps a bit for some time but not for long. It is really an awful experience to use the phone like this. Having the 4 GB version.

It's the first time that I'll complain about this phone! But the use is unbearable now! I have the 4gb version too! I hope the next update fixes things

As far as I know, this problem is common on our device. If the next update isn't going to fix it, then I'm switching to a custom ROM. HavocOS, RebelOS or LineageOS 17.1.

Never had this problem before but is indeed the first time I'm also considering a custom Rom too!

If you're rooted you can fix this using LSpeed app

Hello again, i apologize for being away for a while, but i had personal problems.
I just wanted to reply to my own thread because today i updated to 11.0.7.0 build, but they don't seem to have solved anything? The changelog says only
Optimization: Increased system stability. Reduced system lag

(other than June Security Patch). I'm reading the replies now, and i have to tell you that (currently) i can't root or install a Custom Rom because it would conflict with my bank's application.
So, once again, no support from Xiaomi... but the great news is that i may have found a solution for the application problem! I will link this reply to the main post, so you can find it more easily, let me know if it works for you too!
What i did:
Disabled Adaptive Battery under "Settings -> Battery ->Adaptive Battery"
Disabled Night brightness (also the plannings)
Disabled Do Not Disturb (also the plannings)
Disabled Rest mode (if any)
Rebooted the phone
Try it out with two application, and if you want to reactivate some features after the reboot, i discovered that "Adaptive Battery" creates problems only after some days since it's turned on, so i suggest to keep it disabled. For the other settings, i can't confirm anything because i haven't tried yet, so let me know.

Thanks
Finaly it worked. :good:
I was searching for this problem for a long time.
Your solution worked with me.
I want to say:
I already jave disabled adaptive battery, Night brightness and Don't disturb mode. But only Recovery mode I needed to disable it, then I rebooted the phone.
Now I can switch between applications, and no application have been closed.
Thank you

what recovery mode do you think?where can I find it? thanks

Question Freezing for a Few Seconds Since Last Update?

Anyone else have their Fold 3 keep on freezing for a few seconds at times, ever since the last update? It has done it when using Facebook Messenger via Chat Heads, opening the list of open apps (via the three lines button ||| ) to switch/close an app, Facebook app, Samsung Browser, tapping the back button, and possibly other times. Really annoying!

My screen will go blank when I close a app sometimes. The screen is powered on but all my app icons won't be there. Just the background.

I've had this issue since I got the device. It happens whenever I unfold the device from using the outer screen and it's not an immediate switch, it takes a couple seconds like it hangs. And I've tried 6 different launchers and tons of different apps and nothing changes it. I've debloated my device as much as I can without losing the functionality I need and followed the oneui optimization guide with a bunch of adb commands to make it better and I've had no luck BUT my battery life is amazing and the overall performance is good so I'm at a loss.

Oh, that's an odd one! I haven't had that one happen. It was getting frozen right after the opened app view came up, so I couldn't swipe an app closed or switch to another one right away.
Thankfully, the phone seems to be working better now after I reset the phone earlier, so here's hoping it stays that way.

I don't use the front screen much, so only have done that switch a few times over the year plus I've had the phone. I think it does take a second or two to switch, but not too bad since you're getting it set in your hands anyway, IME.

Okay, well it still does the freezing thing, but not as bad as it did before the reboot. I'd report it to Samsung, but their customer service can't understand English so can't understand problems correctly. I have an issue with scrolling screenshots not saving and they told me to reset my app settings, including network settings, and I separately gave a suggestion for the Bubbles feature to be able to open Bubbles (for texting) instead of waiting for that person to text me, and they told me to reset my network settings.

Question Would someone kindly let me know when pocket mode and app / memory / notifications management is fixed?

Hi all,
Just asking a big favour really, as nothing else comes close to the specs I want I'd like to purchase a poco f5 again once these three issues are fixed:
Pocket mode not working
Memory management closing apps after a little while (despite being locked, set not to close, no power restrictions etc). Even play music app was being killed and Chromecast controls constantly...
Notifications delayed massively again despite the same changes as above point. 15-20+ minute delays.
Ps. I tried debloating and changing every setting I could find. I believe issue is due to MIUI powerkeeper dameon but removing that removes ability to set battery saving on apps at all.
Many thanks in advance.

And where did you experience all of those?
1. Pocket mode in recent Xiaomi devices are might not correctly working because of virtual proximity sensor I believe, cmiiw.
2. If you tried to keep a lot of apps running, of course some might have to be killed or put in a sleep state. You can't keep all the apps keep running in background.
3. This is the direct result from point above. Do note, apps use various method of receiving notifications, some rely on google service (mostly google apps, I believe this is most battery friendly way) while some manage the notifications themselves (this requires the app to be kept running in background, or occasionally given a queue by OS+kernel to be awaken periodically to receive the notifications)
tl;dr: if you want every apps to be as responsive as possible, you have to have a bigger ram and non stop power supply (not running in a battery)

I appreciate your help but this phone does have a proper proximity sensor, it's just not used in the software correctly for some reason. HW tests pass ok . I wouldn't have purchased this phone otherwise, I've had the misfortune of owning devices with the virtual one... Ugh... Never again.
Understood but the 12GB is not being fully used. If you remove power restrictions from these apps they should remain in memory and running in the cached / background state. Xiaomi powerkeeper which is in addition to the stock Android ROM appears to be closing apps regardless. All xiaomi cleaning or clearing options are disabled.
Indeed the applications in question are using Google's cloud messaging notification systems and it isn't an issue on aosp based ROMs on other phones even others in the house at the same time on the same network (doze active or not), but these custom ROMs aren't available for this phone yet.
I'd have probably kept it if the pocket mode worked but I draw the line at my phone dialing emergency numbers when locked in my pocket which happened within two days of ownership. In testing pocket mode didn't work correctly at all, seems others have the same problem.
Thanks though

Regarding about the proximity sensor, I need a confirmation from any owner of this device because it's failed to be mentioned by any reviews. Though elliptic labs didn't mention any Poco F5 and GSMArena might not properly mentioned it (their site mentioned Poco F4 not having a virtual one, while it does use one). Elliptic labs isn't the only one that supply such technology too. Please take a look in an app such "device info hw", see if it's reported as elliptic labs or Xiaomi sensor.
You could try Xiaomi.eu rom if you have already unlocked, though doubtful it will resolve the issue. Or you could try turning off MIUI optimization to see if that can turn off the aggressive doze on google service.

The phone got real proximity sensor. Verified by waving hands over the sensor and placing the phone stationary. The position of the sensor is in top right corner where the signals are shown in ui.

An easier way to check for the future is just to use another camera to check for emitted IR light when the screen is turned on.

I have the chines' model .
for notification : just disable com.miui.powerkeeper by typing the below in CMD command ( plz search for method)
pm disable-user --user 0 com.miui.powerkeeper
and you will receive the notification instantly for all apps .
Note: make sure to unoptimized the apps from battery optimization

I wonder if the Note 12 Turbo has the same problem. That had been out for quite a few months before this phone... I see the Note 12 Turbo Chinese firmware just had an update today.

Indeed I think this is the problem, I did pop this in my first post " I believe issue is due to MIUI powerkeeper daemon but removing that removes ability to set battery saving on apps at all.".
So yeah, it prevents you from using battery saving modes at all on the apps you don't use often .
Thanks though.
