[Q] Keep Trillian alive (in background) - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ive been trying out the new chat client from trillian and i have to say its great. only thing that bugs me and a few other people is that it doesnt stay in background like ebuddy. is there any app or hack of some sort that can keep all this app in background?

They need to code it right.

yeah i figured that much but just looking for a temporary solution to the problem...
also i dont get how PUSH emails work... is it after you get signed off, or when you exit the app (ie: hit home button)?

Hitting Home button doesn't exit the app, unless it's programmed to exit by itself when it's going to the background. That might be the problem with Trillian client - if it's not programmed correctly and dropping connections or doing something of the sort when going to the background, then the OS can't do anything about it.
If you sign off, I believe push mails stop, so you need the app to be running to receive the push. Not sure, though.

The push emails come into play when you select "Suspend" rather than "Sign Off".

Touchpad not getting app notifications (FB, Hangouts etc) on CM 10.1

I'm using the latest cm-10.1-20130730-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin and it was freshly installed on a brand new touchpad (i had one sitting in a box for ages(
However, with everything working on it, i find that the notifications don't seem to work.
for eg, i don't get notifications when i get a new fb message or a google hangouts message.
i have to open the app and manually refresh it for it to get the new data.
any ideas on what i can do?

I would go into Settings and take a look at the Accounts. Verify sync is on for the accounts in question.
Could also go into the Apps area as well. I believe there is a show notifications box that you can check
for the two apps.

show notifications is ticked on for both apps already.
it seems that when it's in the lock screen nothing comes through, but when i unlock it, i get a mass of notifications all at once.
almost seems like it's blocking data when the screen is locked but i can't find any power profiles etc to fix this...
any ideas?

Go into Advanced settings for Wi-fi and adjust the Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep setting.

Mail app in stock FW (5.0.2) on D5803

I'm having trouble with the stock mail app...I have two Exchange ActiveSync accounts set up for push sync...sometimes the mail comes right away, sometimes it's a few minutes delay, and sometimes it just doesn't show up until I go into the app and pull down to refresh. Is this a known issue, or is there something I'm missing? I've set up EAS accounts for years on my phones, Android and BlackBerry, and it always just works, pushes in real time...this is the first time I've had these odd delays.
*New phone, just got it yesterday.
Just taking a guess here but try disabling "Queue background data" in "Power management" in Settings.

Thanks...I did see that that last night and I disabled it...but it hasn't made much of a difference, it's still hit and miss.

Google Messenger not turning display on ?

I started using Google Messenger recently, and one thing I noticed, is that when the phone is off to the side, and I get a new text message, the screen doesn't pop on, like it did with stock Messages and Textra.
Is there some Settings somewhere I need to enable that ?

From my experience, you need the Tasker app and set up a profile to turn the screen on. That is the only way I have found that works consistently. You will also need the Secure Settings app.
The Tasker app can seem overwhelming, but if you take your time and read some of the help files, it is actually pretty easy. I use the same app to turn my phone to vibrate when the phone links to my work wifi.

Best anti-theft Tasker profile

Hello guys, let's get right into it.
It's not just one profile, they are multiple profiles that work together.
So when your phone gets stolen there's pretty much nothing u can do if u have left ur data and GPS off, Tasker solves all of this. Btw I have a nexus 5 running android 7.1 NDE63P
Profile1: when my phone receives a text saying "gps", it activates it using SECURE SETTINGS working along with Tasker (root is required btw)
Profile2: when phone receives text saying " data", it obviously enables data through a shell command, the code is "svc data enable"
Profile3: when it receives a text saying "ring", it starts ringing like it has got no brain, I have an app installed called VOLUME LOCK, and what it does is it simply lets u set up your volume for (RINGER, ALARM, MEDIA) (in the Volume Lock app), and it locks them, so when the app is running u can not turn down the volume of anything, and I just force stop the app, and the first thing Tasker does after receiving the text that says " ring" is it launches the app, so Tasker goes like this ( Launch app, play music through media, play ringtone through ringer, play alarm ringtone through alarm) THIS IS USEFUL IF YOU LOST YOUR PHONE INSIDE THE HOUSE OR IF U WANNA FREAK OUT THE THIEF BECAUSE THERE'S NO WAY TO SHUT IT OFF (I even blocked power menu from lock screen using an app called SMART LOCKSCREEN PROTECTOR) and most people don't know that u can reboot phone by holding the power button for 10 seconds, so we're pretty safe here
Profile3: when phone receives text saying "dnd", Tasker simply puts phone on do not disturb if u just want to track your phone using ANDROID DEVICE MANAGER from a PC or something
I have all of these profiles backed up, just give me ur email and I'll happily send to you
And if u need any more explanation don't hesitate to ask.
From Morocco
I have created a project called '[PROJECT] Anti-Theft System'.
Please, help us to make it bigger, so if you can post your settings on there. . .

I have created a similar anti-theft protection like 'ziko900' that talks us on this thread.
Check out --> '[PROJECT] Anti-Theft System'
I also have one but only one profile and one task, it's all there but it lacks the ringer lock (in fact, mine does not make a noice except for the incomming message but i like the ringer lock idea).
It does ceveral checks on the different states of the GPS, Mobile Data and Wifi and turns them on accordingly. Then waits a while (for the GPS to get a fix), then gets the location and checks this against the last known one.
If the GPS get's a fix, the data is stored in variables, then it does the same for the mobile data location and then collects Wifi data.
Then this data is verified against the last known position and an SMS is generated which contains all this data (if it can't get a GPS or Mobile Data fix it also mentions this in the SMS) including battery level, active provider and all Wifi data it can get.
Then the SMS is send and then the phone is put back into it's previous state it was in (this last part is done to not interfere with other profiles i have currently running and for testing purposes).
I would like to include a bit more into this profile but that's for later.
Due to all the waiting and the timeouts in getting the location data, it can take up to 10 mins before a return SMS is received.
Now, it only works decently when you can get a GPS or Mobile Data fix. Otherwise the data returned isn't much of any value. Same goes for all those find my phone apps. If they don't get a location fix, they are not able to track your phone.

I have recently started using Tasker and I'm amazed at some of the things it can do (no root) and I'd be grateful for the profiles for dnd as I could definitely use it. If u have any other profiles u think are cool I will check them out. So far all I have it doing is using greenify to hibernate automatically and linking to my usual WiFi networks etc. Still trying to work out how to change to my WiFi when I lose my mobile data connection at home (for WiFi calling)
Can u send me the link my email [email protected]
Awesome

I love it man . the way you have backed up your phone for anti theft , thats amazing ..
If you can send me that backup on my email address - [email protected] , i would really appreciate that
Great Work
Can you please send me the link at
[email protected]
I really appreciate your work. Please send me your profiles.. [email protected]
Any way to send a sms to predefined number in case the SIM gets changed automatically?
That would be the best anti theft plugin as the thief firstly throws the old SIM away. Which actually renders these plugins useless.
send me also
my email id is [email protected]
What if the thief changed the SIM card? Or what if the thief removed the SIM card? What is your suggestion in that case?
Hi please send it to me [email protected]
Kindly forward me the link.

Realizing this is 6 months old now, But i'd be interested to take a look

Gmail Notifications

Hello. I've had my phone for about a week now. I don't have much on it yet. Just a few apps and gmail. I have noticed that I am not getting a lot of gmail notifications. I'll get some here and there, but I do not get notified whenever I get gmail. I just looked on my computer and had three emails sitting in my inbox and didn't get a single notification for any of them. Sometimes it's fine. When I turn on the screen, the notifications will suddenly appear. I can see the lock screen is blank, and then the notifications will show up.
Anyone have any idea what might be going on with this? My wife is also having a lot of problems with twitter notifications. She'll turn on her phone in the morning and the notifications will come pouring in, one after another. It can take up to a minute for all of them to show up. She hasn't indicated that she has any problems with gmail.
We're both coming from Note 4s and never had any notification issues.
Thanks
Power saving is probably killing apps from running in the background. See if you can tweak the power saving settings so it's less aggressive, or if you can put GMail and Twitter on a whitelist so they won't get closed.
Try going into setting/apps/ top right corner menu button - special permission
go to battery optimization/ all apps
then disable your preferred app
So far Note 8 has been killing the apps to 'save battery' so notification isn't being pushed. I'm having the same issue. this helped a bit but sometimes still misses notification.
if you really want to push it more then go to battery monitor and put it into white list where the phone doesn't shut it down.
I'm still trying to figure out a solid fix but this is the solution so far with my research.
