[Q] SMS delay problem

Hello guys
i just got a LG L90 a few days ago from T-Mobile
But I suspect there is some SMS delay problems with it
somehow i don't get sms for maybe hours,
and suddenly sms just come popping all up at around the same time
I tried with a few friends. some got it normal but one got my sms 2-3 hours late!
However there are times it work just fine with everyone though
Wondering if any has met the same problem and if there is. Have you figured out a solution for this?
I have contacted T-mobile just now and hopefully the assistants clearing cache method will work for me

No you are not the only one, I too have the same problems (although not as extreme).
As for a fix, luckily with KitKat we can choose a default messaging app and I recommend chompSMS or Textra, they seem to eliminate those pesky delay problems, but although it works for me, I can't guarantee it will work for you.

Have you tried a 3rd party SMS app?

Yeah, I've switch to Google hangout, still a delay :crying:
And also my device suddenly wouldn't charge earlier, i had to disconnect and reconnect 4-5 times before it charges
using Google chrome also keep killing background tasks, keyboard wouldn't show up, screen dimmer keeps getting killed
even the whole UI blank out sometimes and I'm forced to restart
I think I should try flashing a custom ROM? would it be something about the custom one? i don't have much apps installed, problems shouldn't be due to a lack of RAM...
Anyone can help?

There are a few Roms available, check out @Quarxs one about cm 11

Or it has something to do with your provider or the network?

Thanks I'll definitely look into the thread

Did you ever resolve your texts not going through? We have an L90 bought from tmobile prepaid but activated with ultra mobile. Sometimes go to send a text and it just says sending and doesn't go through. At this same time I tried to send a text to that phone and it wasn't received. Rebooted the phone and the messages started going through. Using stock messaging app. I haven't tried a different app. It's my daughters phone and she doesn't deal well with changing the apps around so I want to avoid it if possible.

Google play store problem

Does anyone have problems downloading with google play??
The problem happened around 3 days ago. I was trying to download something when it said "connection timed out, please try again after some time". After a few hours still I cannot load google play nor download anything
I have tried all the solutions possible for google play, service and framework ( clear cache, uninstall updates, remove accout, reboot, clear dalvik) but the connection only works in the beginning then after like 2 mins then "connection timed out" again appears.
For sure my internet connection is strong and I'm sure my ISP is not blocking google play because I can access it via web. What's weird is when I use a VPN, google play all of a sudden works flawlessly.. can anyone help me in diagnosing where exactly is the problem?

I have the same exact problem on my galaxy note 8!. My Google play store won't load anything if I'm on Wi-Fi or on cellular Data!!
But with the VPN it works!

I had a similar problems. I got the Samsung Disconnect Pro app when it was free. I installed that then had the same problems. Turned it off and everything was good. After a day turned it on and now working correctly.

I don't have that app nor ever used it... so I wonder where my problem is coming from?

Try looking at your power options, it might be sleeping wifi (im presuming it happening on wifi). The VPN thing might solve it cause VPN usually does not sleep wifi properly

It's not something that turns up on the battery saving list, it's a power saving feature
under
Settings-->Connections-->Wi-Fi-->Advanced (top right hand corner menu)
make sure Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep is set to always
if i recall moderate battery saving will switch this off

for a minute there, I felt a glimpse of hope but...
Thanks again

I had this exact same issue on my note 8. I blame the smart switch app on these issues. I usually always do a fresh install but this time tried to be fancy and tried that. After doing a fresh install and not using any backups my phone is flawless. I know its annoying going that route but trust me it works and you will have peace of mind.

What about installing unknown sources apps?
Because there's a lot of apps that I can't find in the playstore

Whenever I have apps like that I back them up to my Google drive and onece the phone is set up I reinstall those apps from the cloud.

Did you restore any data from Samsung cloud?

I'm still facing this problem. I didn't install apps that are not from Google play and I did not restore from Google or Samsung cloud. And I also did not use Smart switch. I love this phone but this issue is very frustrating to be honest

Nothing.
Anyway thanks for the inputs guys, I found the culprit and it has to do with an app I downloaded and installed outside the playstore coz it was not available in my country. Once I uninstalled it the playstore came back to normal.

I understand how you feel. I felt like that for a week. I hope someone will come up with asolution for you.

If you don't mind can you disclose what app was causing you issues, I'm deleting, restarting and clearing my play store memory hoping to solve this issue but no luck so far

ok long shot but try going into
Connections-->Wi-Fi-->Advanced (menu on top right)-->Wi-Fi control history
to see if there are any apps messing with your wi-fi

Thank you... the history is clear there is nothing. But that's probably because I keep restarting the phone. Now the Google play store home page won't even load

whatsapp notification push issue

Hello fellow note 9 owners....
I'm facing an issue when I close whatsapp and lock the screen I don't get notifications that I have new messages nor do they get delivered to me unless I open WhatsApp. I think I tried everything to fix it.... Here's what I tried
I put WhatsApp in the unmonitored app list in the battery settings, I'm in performance mode, I cleared cache, I uninstalled WhatsApp, reinstalled it fresh not from a restore. Is there anything else I should do to fix this?

Mine is okay so far (exynos) however, when I am connected to whatsapp web (on my computer, on the same wifi network with my note 9) , it'll lose connection to the phone at random intervals. I'd have to unlock the phone, launch whatsapp for whatsapp web to be connected once again.

I tried still the same problem

Got the same problem with both Whatsapp and Viber, and often with fb messenger.
It seems that I cannot fix it since I tried literally everything and yet, on my friend's note 9, everything is working flawless.

Have you put the app to sleep?

Same issue but for nearly all apps which require the internet for a notification. Only get the issue on mobile data, when connected to wi-fi all are instant.

Make sure you turn this off.

I also have the same problem i have tried a lot of solution but none works.
Changed Rom several times, using PNF-root to change heartbeat interval, uninstalled Universal GMS Doze, setting whatsapp as not optimized, deleted whatsapp and data.
Nothing just nothing have helped, im currently on syberia Rom xiaomi Mi5.
But i dont think its Rom related because i had the same problem on Xiaomi.eu ROM and other Roms

Thks for this tip as I was struggling to find the culprit despite knowing this was rhe issue I had it on by mistake.
This settings now are more buried on pie so forgotten this one.
EDIT: STILL HAVING THE ISSUE

Hi, How did you solve your problem?

Actually I thought it was solved by turning off the battery optimization (which it was on by mistake) and thought it was solved but tonight had again the same issue.
In the morning received only the notifications/messages after opening whatsapp.
I'm not sure if this options below might not also be part of the issue (despite not making sense but who knows...)

This might be a problem for people running Android Pie and One Ui on their Note 9s. I don't believe these problems existed on Oreo. Lets wait a see when an update will be pushed to fix this problem. Until then my wife's Note 9 is staying on Oreo.
For those of you that have updated to Pie how has it affected battery life? Better or worse? If better by how much? SOT Etc

When I got the note 9 the update for Pie was 3 days after so didn't have the chance to have it properly tested, but I think I had the issue on both versions.

This issue exists since Samsung introduced their device maintenance. Switching off batterie optimisation for WhatsApp was the solution for me. Actually only WhatsApp, threema and k9-mail have problems receiving push in standby on my phones, any other apps I use don't have this issue. Therfore I think it's more an issue with the apps, less with the rom. Also Samsung states in the settings that apps in standby may not receive actualisations or send notifications.
Go to stettings->apps->WhatsApp and turn off batterie optimisation
Before Samsung introduced this feature, I was using greenify and had the same issue with some apps.

Like I mentioned earlier. I had issues with Telegram and WhatsApp notifications on Oreo. Now on pie beta 3 no issues. Also my WhatsApp and telegram *are* battery optimized. So I'd say you should be looking at other avenues to remedy this problem. Maybe review the app notifications for whatsapps carefully.

The app notifications are flawless.
The issue is not the notifications, otherwise they would be there but just not being notified on the system.
Even when opening the phone and unlocking it, they are not on the phone, BUT when the app is opened you start actually receiving the messages in a fast manner flow almost like they are just being texted at a very fast pace, so it seems more like they have just been pushed rather than having the message there and simply not notified, otherwise would be having a static last message.
The app seems to be in sleep mode even when whitelisted.
At the moment I have absolutely everything off inside the optimization
The background mobile data is ON
IS even allowed while data saver is ON (Which I don't use anyway)
The sleeping apps, for whatsapp is whitelisted (OFF)
AND it still have the same issue, either the app is optimized or not optimized which does not make sense.

Thanks for the suggestion.
I have 1 note 9 with Gbwhatsapp and another note 9 with stock Whatsapp. Have issues on both.
One was updated to pie and then did factory reset and restored from cloud (unless the backed up settings somehow contributed to an error and other was just OTA updated without any reset. They even operate on different networks.
Seems pretty odd...
To me the app is showing exactly the same behavior as behaving like the list of "sleeping apps", despite the fact it's whitelisted.

EMUI 10 Notification issue

Hello everyone, I just wanted to clarify that I used the search and checked all the sis I could
I got some nom notification or in other apps super delayed ones
Emails seem to arrive fine, but especially charts are either delayed or not shown till I open the app
I really love this device but in terms of delivering notifications it had been very unreliable so far, any other tips?
I would gladly trade battery life for timely notifications

If trying all the usual stock methods for app launch and battery saving exclusions for the apps and they're still not working, you need to kill Power Genie
https://dontkillmyapp.com/huawei
Was the same for me with WhatsApp on 9.1, but it seems to be behaving itself so far on 10 and I haven't had to disable it

thank you, another thing that i suspect is maybe i got this issue due to doing a backup and a recovery once i went to emui10 instead of reinstalling everything, but i will try the powergenie thing now
UPDATE: it didnt seem to work..just for a little while, i also noticed likee in another thread that the always on display also stops working after a while.
the cmd told me "success" after the command from the tutorial

Did you reboot the phone?
If not, then would not be a bad idea to factory reset after such a big upgrade

you know what, i will try it with a factory reset, i'm sjust scared that it might be the telekom patch that is coming in due to my carrier sim that always slightly alters the firmware and installs some carrier bloat

Should be able to remove bloat using the same ADB method as PowerGenie

I just wanted to thank you, it really did the trick even without using adb I receive all notifications since the rest, no matter if the phone is idling since an hour

Notification problems
I've just upgraded to android 10 and my hangouts, WhatsApp and Facebook messenger won't display notifications until I open app I've tried all suggestions above and it didn't work any suggestions?

After the lastest updates of HMS, I started receiving notifications.

I'm having the same problem...my notifications won't come on until I open the app or a few occasions I've noticed all my notifications came at once around 11am??? This has happened a few times...

I have the same problem, my warranty also expired so I'm hoping it'll get better with future updates :c

It's usually a corrupted image/video file in your memory, try disabling MIUI Gallery through ADB and using Google Photos to try to see if it is the problem

Disabling Mi Gallery through ADB breaks Mi Cloud so it's not rlly a good idea if he uses it

thanks genius, didn't think of that
