Maybe allow background running for them?

Thank you! Problem is solved. I also had AdGuard running and forget to forbid accu-optimization for this app.

Hi,
I'm having the same problem with Microsoft Outlook. I have it set to 'manually manage' in App Launch, but that hasn't fixed things. Any ideas please?

Allow unlimited data access, whitelist from battery saving, and allow to run in background.

Allow the app to ignore battery optimization too

I've tried all the suggestions here and still have trouble. I'd leave my phone for an hour or so, turn the screen on and a whole bunch of notifications come pouring in from WhatsApp, Gmail, Messenger etc.
My settings are:
1. Apps -> Apps -> Special Access -> Battery Optimisation -> Not Optimised (for all my email and messaging apps)
2. Battery -> App Launch -> Manage Manually (for all my email and messaging apps)
3. Wireless & Networks -> Data Usage -> Data Saver -> Off
Is there anything else I need to do? This is a serious problem for me and quite frankly, I need to get a new phone if this keeps happening.

Launch app, go to recent apps, swipe down and hold app until lock icon appears, win. This worked for all of my affected apps. Good luck.

Thanks for your reply. I've already done that actually. If you don't touch your phone for say an hour, are you sure the notifications are coming in when it's sleeping and not just when you turn your screen back on?

Thanks for your help, I've discovered the issue now. I don't remember if someone mentioned this earlier and I'm not sure how I missed it, but the issue wasn't the apps closing when the phone went to sleep (since I did everything to make sure they didn't close), the problem was that the phone would switch off LTE and/or Wifi when the screen is off. The setting that controls this is in: Settings - Battery - More Battery Settings - Stay connected when device sleeps. Make sure this is turned on (it was turned off for me before).
I feel almost certain this was turned on in the past and feel it was only turned off in one of the firmware updates. I most certainly would never have turned that off. I can't believe they would use that as a default option since I can imagine only the most battery conscious users would want that off. They should at least have an option where the phone would automatically turn data back on periodically to check for notifications. I know there are third-party apps that do this but if they're going to include an option like that built-in, they should do it properly.
Anyway, problem solved, hope this helped someone else out there.

I have the same issue, but Stay Connected is on, and has been for as long as I've had the problem (2-3 days). No new apps, no new updates, affects all my apps. Driving me nuts. Anything else than doing a full wipe left to try?

same here, till yesterday everything was working fine, i didn't install a new app, configuration of battery settings, data background running is the same, also app locked in recent to run backround as before. update i did before 3 weeks. very strange

I'm very sure this problem occur since the newer software update, my device have same issue.
You can check how to remove PowerGenie (the huawei stock battery management), removing PowerGenie 'might' help you fix it.

I called Huawei and asked, and got a fix! It's not a huge lump of fun, but this is it:
Settings - System - Reset - Reset all settings
Note: all your stuff is still there after reset. Only thing that happens is that it forgets your wlans, your fingerprints, face recognition, lock screen pass/pattern, and all kinds of logins and permissions on your apps. And your apps will jump out of folders and make a hell of a mess. But it worked splendidly for me, notifications are popping up as they should, when they should. Gave me a nice chance to re-arrange my apps even.
Happy thoughts to Huawei (Norway) for having customer service available on the phone, on a regular number, and answering within a few seconds.

I just did it today and it was a complete lost of time. In addition of losing all settings (bluetooth, Wifi, applications and folder on launcher,...) it was not helping with notifications: no Outlook, no WhatApps, no banking app... In other word, nothing, it was worse than before.
I will continue to test settings like controlling launching applications and exclude applications from battery optimization.

It has worked wonders for me at least, notifications are doing their normal thing, including sending them to my FitBit. But I guess there are all kinds of settings that can mess up your notification system =/

Thanks for sharing tips.
Have a good day

Is it just push notifications you're not getting or are messages not coming through at all until device unlocked/app opened? I've been trying all sorts, searched "data" in settings and stumbled upon "unrestricted data access" all apps are disabled on this. Hoping next few hours will show that's me sorted finally.
Once my screens been off 15 minutes, friends WhatsApp msgs only show 1 grey tick their end until I open WhatsApp again

(How to Fix) Not receiving notifications fix!

With the way Huawei forces their "power saving" down our throats you are likely not getting all of your notifications for things like news apps and social media apps etc. I like their idea on trying to find ways to consume less battery, but man they are aggressive on the way they do it. Here is a fix that should work on all Huawei branded phones.
Step 1: First go to settings, advanced settings, battery manager and then to protected apps. Look for the app that you want to receive notifications from and then select "protect it".
Step 2: Go to settings, apps, advanced, ignore battery optimizations, then find the app and ignore it. This sounds kind of weird when you select ignore the app, but actually this means to allow it to run....... basically you are telling battery optimization function to ignore that particular app. Also known as "Doze"
Step 3: Go to settings, notifications panel & status bar, notification center, then find the app, then activate "allow notifications" and also "priority display". You must select priority or you won't get the notifications.
Works perfect for me. I spent countless hours trying to figure out why I didn't get notifications from my news apps and it drove me crazy. BTW....I have not experienced any battery drain at all.
PLEASE REMEMBER TO HIT MY THANKS BUTTON!!!
Solution already brought up on the 4th of July!

Hi, I have to say that Step 3 is not convincing.
Enabling priority display allow notification to appear during "do not disturb" mode. I don't want to be woke up during the night.

That is correct, but if you don't set priority you won't get the notification . Been there and done that ready. You can try not setting priority and see if works different for you, but when I turn off priority for the app I do not get the notification.
Please let me know if yours works differently as I am interested.

If you are right, then Huawei software developer must be brainless. For god sake, why on the earth getting a simple notification is so freaking complicated??
I'll try to set priority notifications, but even if it works it's not a solution for me.
I'll let you know man.
Thank you.
This one is working for sure, i found this solution out myself.
Push notifcations
To make push notifications work again create a widget (provided with the app) and place it on your home screen.
The widget will keep the services alive, even when you close the app in the taskmanager.
Make sure you toggle them on in the protected apps menu and put the powerplan on performance mode.
This works for all apps that came with the option to create a widget for it.

This sure would have been nice to have had this info prior to my 2 days of trial & error to get things working. As I do not receive or read all news outlets in regards to this phone, as is the case with many others, this was my sole purpose of my posting it here for others. In July I wasn't even considering this phone....actually I didn't even know this phone existed then. Another reason for my posting the info here. Luckily we have this forum as a go to place.

I uninstalled phone manager, the method worked and got rid of it, Now I get better notifications but I'm still having the issue, still some notifications are not shown.
Deleting it does not solve 100% of the problem!

Not receiving some push notifications

So I've followed the guide on how to get push notifications. I've done it all from turning off battery saver, locking the apps, turning memory optimization off, putting apps in auto start, turning the floating notifications on, etc...There are still several apps that won't push notifications (YouTube, Amazon shopping, Yahoo mail). I don't use many apps that push notifications, but I'm guessing most won't work. However, I'm able to receive notifications from Gmail,. Viber, and Textra.
Is their anything else I can do other than switch to a custom ROM? I'm on the latest Chinese ROM. I've followed the guide on here step by step.
Only thing you seem to have not mentioned seems "Turn MIUI optimisations" off in Developer options. Try that maybe? Yahoo seems to work me, though inconsistently sometimes.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that one. I tried it last night after watching a YouTube video and it didn't work. I'll try it again though. I don't see how Xiaomi will get repeat business from people if they can't even accomplish getting push notifications right.

Another interesting tidbit of information is 8 Ball pool will push me notifications and I don't have the app on any of battery methods mentioned such as turning off battery saver off for the specific app, putting it in auto start and making it priority. Yet other apps I've done those measures on won't push notifications. Go figure. F*ck MIUI.

Chinese phone- l10, whatsapp and other apps not running in background.

Hello,
My dad bought the p9 not so long ago in China, EVA-AL10C00B386, android 7.0, EMUI 5.0, he stopped using it shortly after because if whatsapp was no open in the background, he would not receive any notifications.
My phone died yesterday so I'm trying to use his p9 now, not only whatsapp doesn't receive notifications when offline, I noticed that you can't use whatsapp on your pc either ( since it requires your phone to be connected when used), so I guess whatsapp (also telegram, but I guess it's a general problem) just doesn't run in the background when the app is not active.
I've been searching online for a fix, but I only found irrelevant solutions.
Is there any way to fix it? and if not, will installing a different rom fix the issue? if so, is there any specific rom I should get?
EDIT: I enabled developer options, and in the Running Services, whatsapp and the rest aren't running, so why is the phone blocking these services?
Thanks
try to use protected-apps to receive notification
http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/152649/what-is-protected-apps-in-huawei-phones
I can not find the protected-apps options, I looked every where, and under Battery, it doesn't exist, the closest option I found was settings -> battery -> close apps after screen lock.
And I already disabled it for everything.
For me worked to add a widget on my homescreen of the app you want to run in the background. With the widget the phone is forced to run the app in the background. With Whatsapp for example you can add the widget with all of the chats.

GUIDE: How to avoid EMUI system from closing apps running in the background

Hi guys,
I finally found a way to prevent the system form closing applications that I want to keep in background.
First, what most where suggesting is this:
Settings -> Battery -> App Launch -> Turn off "manage automatically" and allow the apps you want to to "auto-launch", "secondary launch" and "run in background"
This is a first step and some users reported it also helped with idle battery drain, however it did not help and system was still closing MX player like crazy if I paused whatever I was playing for a few seconds, so here is the important step for apps you want to keep in background:
Settings -> Apps -> Apps -> three dots on upper right corner -> special access -> battery optimization -> change dropdown menu to "all apps" -> change apps you want to keep in background to "don't allow, may drain battery more quickly"
That's it!

Restarting the phone fixed the problem

B.t.w. why there is no memory usage visible anymore in settings with EMUI 9?
I noticed it closed some apps, right after using the camera for a bit.

I restart every morning after a charge because there must be memory leaks. After a day of no restarting it holds at most 2 apps in memory of that.
Also switching to fixed resolution helped a lot for me. There's deffo a bug there.
Is there an way to setup the mail to push instead of 15 min?

Same for me. Seems to do it more when using night mode. Killed Audible multiple times taking night shots yesterday evening. ?
Also there is a memory leak as the time goes on, my device didn't slow down, but i had stutters while playing games.
Phone needs seriously more polish, specifically the camera that closes down a lot of apps, doesn't feel like 6gb.

Hope this is a Typo.
The feature "Ignore Battery Optimisation" is there to allow you to exclude certain apps you want to keep running in the background from being closed by the battery optimisation feature. You do this by adding an app to the "Allow" list, (hence the, "Not recommended, may drain your battery more quickly), and NOT the opposite.
I know you're trying to be helpful but mistakes like this can cause more confusion.

When I had the Mate 20 Pro I had to turn OFF the switch (circle in left side of the pill switch) to "disable battery" optimization in order to allow MX Player to run in background and not being closed every time 5 seconds after I paused something

I think the setting he's referring to is to turn off the notification warning of battery drain which won't help an app stay alive in the background but at least you don't get a notification that you are going to ignore anyway.
Anyone have any ideas as to what I need to stop from being managed automatically in order to keep the clock and battery tiles from being stopped every time the screen is locked?
I've been looking for this for ages! It works! Cheers buddy. You're a legend.

How to keep Whatsapp alive (did try every "legal" trick in the book!) ?!

I am with CLT-L29 on stock 9.0.0.236 I noticed that recently (maybe after some recent system or app update) Whatsapp gets killed if the phone is on idle for longer time, say 20-30+ min.
I have the following set:
* Battery/App launch/Manage manually - all options enabled for Whatsapp (and only this did the trick in the past)
* Special access/Battery optimization/WhatsApp -> Don't Allow
* In Recent applications screen I have swiped Whatapp down and now it is with padlock and not being removed from recents when pressing the dust bin.
* Also did try to kill process "Power Genius" that I read is Huawei power manager - but I don't think this can be done without root
* Also did uninstall/fresh install of Whatsapp
Am I missing something?

Did you try rebooting after setting to manual in battery settings?
Hi, I had this for two days, after that it has started working perfect, wasn't just whatsapp for me either. Think some sort of learning system in emui is broken with regards to regularly used/priority apps. As you, I went through all menus.... Twice.

Twice?! I did it maybe more than 20 times!
Unfortunately it did not improve... I played with this over the last weekend, still yesterday evening and today morning - whatsapp web was saying no connection to the phone until I wake it up or open Whatsapp on the phone.
I will let it be for the time being (since out of ideas and don't want to reset the phone just for that). But it is driving me crazy since I use whatsapp for work as well and during the day (also in the evenings) I am checking every now and again if whatsapp is still running...
Same for work. I thought maybe it was to do with me using an always on music widget while I'm at work but it carried on working fine when I got home suddenly. God knows why then

Are you sure it's only WhatsApp?
Try those too:
Settings -> Battery -> More battery settings -> Stay connected when device sleeps -> Enable
Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Data usage -> Data Saver -> Disable

Well, I mostly use whatsapp... At one point email notifications were also delayed a lot (Gmail), lately it is better...
I noticed that it mostly happens when the phone has been idle (out of the pocket sitting on the table) for long time 10-20 min.
Those were already set as suggested:
Settings -> Battery -> More battery settings -> Stay connected when device sleeps -> Enable
Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Data usage -> Data Saver -> Disable
Make sure you set it to manual and all 3 options are on.
Now go to settings-apps-apps-3 dots in the right corner top-special access-battery optimization - find whatsapp and press allowed.
After that reboot in recovery and delete cache.
If it doesn't work then sue Zucc
Oh yeah, reinstall whatsapp after doing the stuff you did. This will fix your issue
never had any issues with Huawei and WA. the only thing had to do was to select that WA will be handled manually (no auto battery management for this app) and to not kill the app after phone goes to sleep

The Restless Soul -> didn't you mean "Don't Allow" - since this is the option to remove whatsapp from battery optimization - screenshot attached? (if so, I have tried that with no improvement).
I did try whatsapp reinstall already and cleared phones cash. But will clear the cash once more...
Most definitely - once the phone goes into deep(er) sleep whatsapp (and probably other background apps) get killed.
Also noticed yesterday that Gmail too, delayed an email (I received it 40 min after I got it on my desktop) until I started using the phone...

It was the same with me in the beginning...
Not sure when exactly it changed - I am now on 9.0.0.236
Strongly considering killing the Huawei power management application as per the below guide, the down side - will no longer be able to see the power consumption details:

Yesterday I left my phone for more then 2 hours just laying on the table...
I got 1 missed call from Whatsapp and my Gmails delayed until I opened the Gmail application (by 2+ hours)... so it is not only whatsapp - problem with push notifications of any sort when the phone is idle.
Today I did:
C:\>ADB shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.huawei.powergenie
Package com.huawei.powergenie new state: disabled-user
Let's see what will happen...

The above did not help. I did try disabling Android Pie doze mode - also no joy.
I am giving up for now...
