I've noticed that at least two apps will mysteriously stop working in the background, causing problems:
First, most important, I use my Google Voice number, not my SIM number, so I need Google Voice to be running so that it intercepts my calls and uses the right phone number to make calls. If I open Google Voice, it will work for a few hours, maybe a day, and then GV stops working and calls start going out through my SIM number.
The other app that exhibits this behavior is Garmin Connect -- my watch gives me notifications, but then, for no reason, it will stop working. Opening Garmin Connect solves the problem.
I have ensured all permissions are set as liberally as possible, even the "allow autostart" option. Not sure what else to do. Any ideas would be great. I did not have this problem with my Mi 8.
Thanks!
I think I had a similar problem with the Runtastic app that I use for running: After around one minute of screen off time it would stop getting GPS data.
I fixed it by adding it to the list of apps that is allowed to run in the background. You can find this setting in the power and battery settings ("Akku & Leistung" in German).
I think you are talking about the Battery Saver > Choose apps ("Saving power in the background") list. In that list, you can set background settings for each app. I had both of these apps already set to the most liberal setting, "No restrictions (Battery saver doesn't restrict app's activity)". I changed them both to the second setting, "Battery saver (recommended)", which seems to be an automated, smart method the phone uses.
I also decided to try turning off the Use Adaptive Battery setting ("Limit battery for apps that you don't use often"). Maybe this is the culprit.
Any luck there yet? My vivo active hr does not even show live notifications....

I noticed that since yesterday, Google Now seems to have gotten reduced functionality, namely, in setting reminders.
I used to use voice commands all the time to leave reminders, specially location-based ones.
I noticed now that whether I say "reminder" or "alarm" it sets an alarm... and can no longer set them to a specific location like "remind me when I get home to..." and only at a specific time.
I also noticed that it appears to be hooking into HTC's own Alarm app instead of using it's own alarm/notification system.
Is this something HTC updated in it's internal apps that is taking over the reminder/alarm feature of Google Now? Or is Google Now itself doing this from adding support for notifications from 3rd party apps? Any way to revert it back?
same here

it's driving me crazy! I need my reminders back!
Known issue for the past few days. https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!category-topic/websearch/vu0eMzw83MU[1-25]
From what I've read you can type in the reminder and it'll work. It's when you do it via voice and it has to go out to google servers does the bug pop up. I'm sure it'll be fixed soon.
So I have the note 5 for few months now and after all this time I haven't found a solution.
Basically I use the app called livescore and few other football/soccer apps that notify my when I select certain matches for goals to show up like notifications.
The settings in the app its self is fine, notifications are on, the settings in app manager are also fine.
I haven't found anywhere settings for notifications to show up or not when not on wifi. Do those settings exist? If they don't then what the problem might be?
Its really frustrating as the same thing doesn't happen with whatsapp which works fine with notifications over LTE/4G but when it comes to other apps it just wont work.
ALSO my samsung default email app wont show up new emails unless I am on wifi or unless while on LTE/4G I go inside the app and refresh it.

Hey,
This also randomly just happened to me. The way I fixed it is by going into settings --> Applications --> Application Manager --> MORE --> Reset App Preferences. Notifications all came in after i did that and haven't had a problem since. Let me know if it works!
Hey all, I hope somebody can help me out with this. I've noticed this problem with multiple apps but I will continue my description with Whatsapp as it's the most important to me.
It seems to be random, but some (becoming most) times I don't receive any notifications from whatsapp. When i open the app, i can see the app "updating" and receiving all the messages that were sent to me since the previous launch.
I have gone to the battery management and turned whatsapp to manual mode with all 3 options enabled (auto launch, secondary app launch and background usage)
I've also turned on unlimited data restrictions for the app.
I'm still facing the same issue. Anybody else out there facing the same thing with whatsapp or any other app? Any ideas how to fix this?
Same problem messaged Huawei and got a real crap guide on how to fix it . There "fix" was to hard reset the phone which we all know a new phone should work out of the box what good is a hard reset going to do apart from wipe the phone
It could be a network issue. Sometimes when am on wifi every notification comes on time(tested it with my second phone). When i switch on 4g , notification can have a considerable delay. And not only watsapp. Instagram facebook gmail you name it.

Have you try to put out whatsapp from battery optimization apps...
Settings, Apps, Apps, press 4 dots upper right corner, special access (or something like that), exclude whatsapp or any other app from battery optimization
My notfications are working, but sometimes it doesn't play the notification sound for whatsapp. It seems to be random, does anybody know how to fix this?
I have an Honor Play (COR-L29), and pretty much since day one I've had an issue with delayed push notifications for almost every app from which I receive push notifications. For example, someone will send an email to my Gmail account, but while my screen is off, I will not be notified. The moment I wake the screen, the notification will come through. It's running the latest firmware. In Apps>Special Access>Battery Optimisation I have set ALL apps to NOT ALLOWED, and in Battery>App Launch I have set ALL aps to MANUAL, but this has made no difference. I have also used the Wipe Cache Partition feature several times, and again this makes no difference. I love the phone, but simply can't cope with the notification issue. Does anyone have a solution?

Which one battery settings you used, it's normal mode or power saving mode? If you used power saving mode it will be turn off all your background notification, such as gmail.
And go to settings -> battery -> more battery settings -> check stay connected when device sleeps.
Hope it will help
Hi everybody, I have a problem since the day 1 I have this phone (2 months ago).
There's no way to receive whatsapp messages and email until i manually open the applications. Already tried to:
disable any battery saving setting
check any application permission
restore the phone
re-install the app
CHANGE OPERATOR
USE WIFI
and still the phone fall asleep and i receive all messages only when i open the app.
any idea to solve that?
Thanks
That's weird. Mine works fine - on battery setting i have option " with optimization".
But i have active option "picture in picture". Perhaps check this one.
Check background management for whatsapp. Disable it. Check autorun list. WhatsApp should be checked there.
I have no problems with WhatsApp.
