[Q] [Help] Notifcations for certain apps not working? - X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, is anyone else having issues with notifications from certain apps not showing up? For me it is Facebook's Pages Manager. I can not get notifications for this app to work at all. I've cleared the data, uninstalled and reinstalled, logged out on my old phone, uninstalled on my old phone, turned on "priority" notification mode...
Notifications for Facebook and Facebook Messenger work, although are somewhat slow. Is there some setting I've missed somewhere?
Thanks!

Yes, I'm having the same issue, Viber and Gmail initially, but for me, I also seem to have issues with apps staying awake. I use Timeriffic to change my profiles throughout the day, but after a few hours it just no longer seems to work and Smart Alarm, where my alarm just didn't go off.
I'm sorry I don't have an answer, but if I find one, I will post it.

com.htc.bgp crashes since root and freezing of apps

It doesn't seem to cause any issues other than the annoying message on occasion. I froze the TMO app pack, facebook, twitter, yahoo mail and messenger and a few other things.
The problem seems to occur most often when I go into Handcent or Messages to check or send SMS. I read some other threads on this that said that clearing out the data from Calendar Storage and Gmail Storage fixed the issue, but it didn't fix it for me. I'm assuming my SMS database might be corrupt or have the wrong permissions, but I can't find a way to delete it completely. Going into manage applications and clearing the data for Handcent and Messages does NOT clear out my existing SMS messages. I deleted them all through the app, but I don't think that actually wipes out the database file and creates a new one.
I have a strong suspicion that it's related to SMS/MMS messages. I fired up aLogCat also and set a filter for "bgp," but nothing shows up when it crashes. It's logging in verbose mode also.
Anyone else have this issue?
By the way, since I rooted and froze all of those apps, my battery life has nearly doubled. I know all of that stuff is supposed to go inactive if not used, but clearly some of those apps are waking up and doing things even though they were not being used. I should also note that if you freeze the Messages app, then MMS in Handcent will not work. It seems to rely upon the built in Messages app, I had to Defrost it to get MMS working again.
try un-freezing the weather apps if you did those. i killed them from mine and started getting this too.. unfortunately i need don't have a way to get them back. i'm waiting for someone to post a backup of the original stock rom 2.2.1 so i can restore it.

no notifications

I have a very annoying problem with my Nexus 4. I dont get notifications for Apps like Facebook, Facebook messenger or Kik Messenger (WhatsApp only works when screen is turned on, but thats not so bad because I always use my N4 ).
I used Greenify before uninstalled it today but I still dont get any notifications for facebook messenger Anybody know how to fix?
Thanks
robin
That is a known problem on some n4.. You have wi fi fix on this forum, but not 2g/3g.
Same here! heck, I can't even receive Viber calls while the screen is off on wifi.. gmail notifications would come late always at no specific time.
Tried Advanced Wifi Lock, works for the first ~15 mins then stops.....
Latest versions of CM kind of fixes, but the problem still persist; it's being said this is going to be fixed on the next OS update.

No Messenger notifications?

Hi,
I have no idea why, but I don't get any push notifications from Facebook Messenger. There is no sound, no vibraitions, nothing in notications. And yet, in the app itself I see that someone wrote to me.
Symptoms:
No notifactions
No chatheads
Full Facebook app itself does notifactions: it tells me about new friends, birthdays etc. Also: when I open a new conversation via Facebook app, it creates that chathead bubble. And with that pinned to my screen I can get atleast some sounds.
When I manage apps, under Messenger, I usually have two services: ChatHeadService and MqttPushService (sometimes also EventService and
I still get notifications from other apps, like SMS, Facebook itself, Google Play etc.
What I did:
I cleared all the cache and app data for Facebook and Messenger (multiple times!)
I reinstalled both Facebook and Messenger
I restarted my phone and did Wipe Cache via Recovery.
I double checked if I have notifications enabled both in my Messenger app and in Application Settings
I have enabled synchronization.
Nothing worked. And yes, until... I have no idea what, everything worked just great.
I'm using Galaxy S4 i9505 with I9505XXUEMJ7. And Messenger/Facebook are the newest, freshly installed versions from the market.
Do you have ANY idea how to fix my problem? Maybe there is some KNOX block or whatever that I'm not aware of?
Out of the Blue, the exact same symptoms. Everything was working fine until a few weeks ago. Suddenly, facebook messenger gives me no notifications at all.
What I tried more was installing older facebook and messenger versions without any luck!
My device is Galaxy S4 i9505 with XXUFNB9 no root
My problem was on Facebook side.
Try creating totally new account and log in with it into your Phone. Check if you recieve notifications.
If yes, go to Facebook settings and delete all (ALL) apps that you have connected. From what I gathered the problem was in one of the apps that probably was stealing all the attention.
Yeap! I disabled all apps from Facebook settings and... blink! Notifications! Don't know which app did the trick but don't really mind. Thank you for your time!! :laugh:

How to stop gmail from sleeping

Ive been using the zenfone 3 zoom for about a year now and I have yet still to figure out how to stop the gmail (or the gmail notifier app?) from sleeping. Thus when the phone is in sleep mode, I never get notifications for new email. Other notifications work (like texts, etc).
I think I have spent at least an hour in the stupid battery optimization screen, but still havent figured out how to make it so gmail notifications work in sleep.
Any ideas?
Thanks
In Settings, search for "Auto-start Manager" - make sure Gmail is on the "allowed" list.

Screen Wake from FB Messenger

Phone screen just flickers on and off when I get FB notifications. Seems like a glitch.
When this happens, is the phone in vibration mode? Other possibility is that you may have set a screen passcode recently and in the process also enabled hide sensitive notifications and it is possible that it may be interfering for phone to wake up on certain notifications. Are the FB messages from messenger present when you do wake the screen or do they show up right after you wake up the screen? You may have changed the phone sync settings or if you have enabled power saving mode, phone may not be checking for notifications from certain apps or in intervals or both, or if you or another app have disabled facebook messenger from syncing or changed background data settings (for example datally is an app from google helps save data if you don't have unlimited plan but in the process it disables most apps from connecting to internet by default).
I would suggest go in settings, then apps, then tap on three dots on top right, enable 'show system apps', then look for any apps related to facebook, click on each one go to 'storage' then 'clear data'. Make sure you do this for all of them before you go back into FB or messenger. You will have to log in FB again and it is quite possible that this will fix the issue if settings were the cause. (Edit: Try uninstall and reinstall the app). If it doesn't work, and you have checked through all the possibilities above, you may have to do a factory reset, setup the phone again and reinstall FB and Messenger app first then install a few apps at a time to try and catch any apps that might be responsible. One last possibility that i can think of is that it is also possible a recent update to the app by FB may have caused this bug instead of you or your phone.

That's an interesting point you make, because the phone is doing just that - The phone isn't actually vibrating until I hit the screen and wake it. So they're essentially showing up right after I wake the screen. This is despite the fact that the message was sent minutes beforehand, so it would've been received by all accounts. Appreciate the help!

Very likely you have the Battery saver feature turned on. When it is on, among other things, the background activity and data of apps get restricted. I am very sure that this is the cause for the issue you are having. You can either turn off Battery saver mode or add FB Messenger to the Power saving exclusions list to get your FB push notifications back.
Appreciate all the help man!
Great thank you!
