not receiving app notifications unless on wifi - X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So ive noticed im not receiving app notifixations unless im on wifi. As soon as i get into wifi range i get a few notifications pushed to my phone. I get calls/texts immediately.
I checked, background data is not restricted. Now last week i installed greenify, messed with it and removed it. Im pretty certajn since then ive had this issue. Greenify is uninstalled, so it shouldnt still affect my notifications, right?

Not receiving push gmail and whatsapp on wifi

I'm experiencing problems with Gmail and whatsapp: whenever I'm on my home wifi the push does not work. But more problematic, sometimes it does work. Next to that when I go into whatsapp after a day of no messages they all arrive at once.
So I'm able to receive messages and Internet works, but the push services doesn't work most of the time! I'm not on stamina mode or any other battery app (BTW battery of my z1 is worse than my sp).
Does anyone have an idea how to find out if there's a culprit or what settings I've messed up?

So nobody has a clue I gather?
To my look like the Auto-Sync is OFF so turn it ON. If is already ON probably Gmail and Whazzuppe is not in the list so you have to addict it manually + Add Account.

Thanks for thinking with me, though that is not the case! Sync is on and it works perfectly on other wifi networks.
I can report a more peculiar fact: pinging google.com with Fing results in 100% packet loss, though pinging for example tweakers.net gives me an average of 40msec. Strangely I can brows to www.google.com in Chrome... It seems as though there's something very wrong with my Z1 because pinging Google.com with my Xperia SP does work!
Any news on this?
I'm experiencing the exact same problem. It has been around for at least a couple of months on my Nexus 4.
Most of the times I don't receive any push notifications. I need to open the app manually, wait a couple of seconds, and then all the new messages come in.
Here is what I tried so far:
- Notification settings for each app
- Reinstalled complete OS
- Background data is allowed
- Wifi policy is "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" -> Always
- I don't have any battery savings or task killer apps

I also tried this, and now I only have the OS and Whatsapp installed. But the problem persists.
I have the same problems since KitKat.
Sometimes I have to open the app to become the messages.
I had this problem with 681, then I done a full wipe and installed the 757 rom.
But i also have this problem....
So as it turns out, the problem only exists in my wifi at home.
When I'm at the university everything works fine.
I also noticed that facebook and instagram are very slow on my phone at home.
And only the apps, not the websites.
(this also has been around for a couple of months)
Having the same issue with my HTC M8. Guess I just have to find out what settings are causing this on my router.
Edit: Fixed it. My VPN's DNS servers were blocking push. Changing them back to googles DNS brought push back.
Actually, I was also facing the problem. I tried to get it solved by uninstalling all the recently downloaded apps, but it didn't work for me. And I couldn't uninstall all the apps.
Then I got the idea that it may be because of some setting on my router. I don't know much about router settings. So, I finally installed the VPN App Opera Max and it worked. It was a big relief for me.

Max does not change DNS settings so in theory it shouldn't fix this issue. It's possible that your issue was unrelated to this one.

Having problems with viber and whats app

after updating my lumia 625 to WP 8.1 beta im having notification problems with both viber and whats app... it seems like when my phone is locked it kind of goes into deep sleep and never gives any notifications for viber and whats app... after unlocking my phone i could sometimes see rush of notifications all at onece.. and sometimes i have to open the app to get the notifications.. its annoying... i bought 625 a week ago and immediately updated to 8.1 beta....its my first WP so im a bit confused.. am i missing something?? or this notification problems have been present from the beginning?? if any one could help i will be grateful as im very depended with those apps.... and people can seem to find me on time due to notification problem....
ps : there is no problem with GSM phone call and message.
Do you have a data plan? By default, WiFi turns off while the screen is off and the phone unplugged, so if you rely on WiFi for data then you won't get notifications until the phone is woken up, plugged in, or you change the WiFi settings.
Guys! SOLVED IT.
Push notifications doesnt work, because (I am almost 100% sure) all of you use Wifi connection only without SIM mobile data usage allowed. I think some guys thought at Microsoft that their phones will be used only with mobile internet packages or at places where there is always signal (sorry norwegians...). Friend of mine has a data package of a random size and she did not turn off data usage on the go, so she had always had the skype, viber calls and notifications at the moment they had been sent - also never understood my problem...
Solution: on Win 8.1 Lumia 532 go to Settings>Lock Screen, where you will see five apps to have rights to show detailed status when the screen is off. Select Skype, Viber, Whatsapp, whatever IM application, and you will be ringed once someone tries to call you via video or voice.
Tested on 532, gonna test it on wife's 550 after my shift.
Solution #2 (if you are not it the remote northern norwegian mountain region): buy at least the smallest monthly data package, when you run out the Mbs, the operator still gives you a small bandwidth that will enable you to get push notifications and also make calls when in WiFi area.
Peace!

No notifications with screen off on WiFi

When I'm on WiFi at home and my screen is off, I don't seem to be getting notifications (Gmail, Whatsapp, Twitter, games, etc). I made sure in Wifi settings under advanced that keeping wifi on during sleep is checked.
After I unlock my phone, about 4 or 5 seconds later I seem to get all of the notifications I should have been getting. Anybody know why this is happening? It's annoying missing notifications.
I'm on Firekat v5. Have Greenify but not for the apps I need notifications from. So don't think that's the issue.
You must of greenify some system app that controls that
BAD ASS NOTE 4
It's not possible to greenify system apps so don't think that's the issue. The notifications work fine on mobile data. Just not on WiFi.

Are you rooted? If so it is very possible to do system apps.
BAD ASS NOTE 4
I don't have the paid version so I can't do system apps.
Decided to change wifi settings to have wifi turn off when phone is sleeping. Turns on mobile data and I'm able to get my notifications.
i recently been having this issue also, i restarted phone and it fixed the issue, did anyone figure out why its doing this?
Turns out it had something to do with my Internet. At&t came out and swapped the modem/router and everything is working perfectly for me now.

EVA L09 Nougat Push Notification Problem

Hey Guys,
Today i upgraded from MM to Nougat and flashed the Moonlight ROM (nobody answered in the thread) ...so far everything works fine, but I have massive problems with push notifications...i receive push notifications just from whatsapp or email...from apps like flashscore (sports app) I dont get notifications
Can someone help me?
Could a new flash of this rom help?
Edit: everytime I turn off WIFI and turn it on again, it works for a few Moments...and I receive all the messages I missed at once
The same happens with mobile internet
I have exactly the same problem and can say it's definitely GCM related, as i first experienced it while trying to get the "Join" app (great pushbullet alternative) to work properly and ran the diagnostics that are included within it. The problem seems to pass for a while when the network status changes, then no pushes come through at all until it changes again, eg. connecting or disconnecting WiFi or turning airplane mode on and off. Im pretty sure it's not battery-saving related as it occurs regardless of if the app is active or working in the background, unless it's the Google play services part that gets killed after some time but i have no idea how to check it. I've tried some heartbeat interval changing apps but unfortunately none did the trick and I'm out of ideas and this is pretty frustrating

No notifications while using mobile internet.

I bought a pixel 5 to do courier work, I just needed something reliable with good battery life to run GPS and a handful of delivery apps.
Since the day I bought it I have had problems with notifications on mobile internet, for the most part I don't get any for any apps until I connect to wifi, then they all come flooding through at once.
I have tried every fix ive come across, changing from 5g to 3g, installing a heartbeat fixer app, changing background battery and data settings. Sometimes they seem to work, sometimes restarting the phone works but nothing sticks. I have spent hours talking to google support, they have made me factory reset 3 times, it normally fixes it at first, but last time it didn't and even with a completely fresh OS I wasn't getting any notifications on mobile internet, I tested by emailing my gmail account before installing any more than the default apps.
I should note that I have a strong internet connection the entire time, If i open gmail and refresh it the emails are there, I just don't get notifications for them until I connect to wifi.
The lack of notifications breaks a lot of apps as it seems they rely on the notifications or whatever protocol they use to work. The big issue for me is one of the courier app will give me no runs unless notifications are working.
Anyone have any ideas? I'll happily paypal anyone who can suggest a permanent fix $50 lol, if not I'll have to buy a different phone.

Sounds like you have a lemon on your hands.
I don't suppose you're using a VPN? I've had all sorts of strange issues with notifications and using a VPN as when the phone goes to sleep it can disconnect you from the network.
Or apps like Netguard where you can set apps to connect to either the wifi or mobile network or restrict them.
If you have no apps installed that can restrict your network usage then it seems your phone might have a problem.
No, even straight after a factory wipe, no notifications, that seemed to coincide with the latest pixel update a few days ago because nothing I tried would get it to work which is why I factory reset and for the first time it wasnt working after the factory reset either.

I don't suppose it's something simple as...
I sent myself some emails and used the "find my device" in order to cause some notifications, as you can see on the video, nothing comes through until I connect to wifi.

Yep I think it's time for a new phone lol.
Have you tried a different provider, a friends sim card? It may be incompatible with the P5. There was a problem in USA with Mintmobile and the P5 but Google fixed it. Which service provider do you use?
