Delayed or no push notifications at all when phone is sleeping

So I searched and was not able to find anyone complaining on not receiving push notifications (whatsapp msgs, Gmail, Facebook messages etc) when the screen has been off for 10 minutes or more either on wifi or mobile data.
It has been happening to me since day one and it is surely not a Smartsync issue like we had on the HOX as it also happens during the morning.
So to explain better, if my phone's screen has been off for about we 10 minutes or longer then no push notifications come. Instead they are all flooding in as soon as i turn the screen on again.
Of course i have the power saver turned off, wifi sleep policy to never turn off, automatic sync on etc.
Please note that this happens both on wifi and mobile data. In fact the situation on mobile data i believe is even worse.
Anyhow below is a nice thread about the exact same problem.

Does it happen to anyone else owning the One?
Please share your thoughts.

Do you have "Sleep mode" enabled in the Power settings menu?

Do you have sleep mode off

Hmm, have you tried going to the "Accounts & sync" section and then checking each account individually
to make sure that sync is enabled for each one. Even though Auto sync is on, some accounts may need to be enabled manually.
I find i have to do this after restoring from a Titanium backup otherwise nothing syncs. Just make sure the sync icon is highlighted for all of them...

What about "Power Saver"? There are four separate things Power Saver does (and you can choose which are actually activated) - one of them is to turn off the data connection when the screen is off. (This is a separate setting from "sleep mode").

Well i do have this problem. I have all the settings correct but mails and whatsapp wont sync at times for an hour or so. Sometimes it works well and sometimes it does not. ive tried using different roms but its the same.

If your phone is rooted try wiping data for "Google Services Framework" and Play Store, wipe cache and dalvik cache, remove your accounts, reboot, re-add your accounts and wait for it to sync.
Let us know the results.

This. I had this problem before too and tried a bunch of stuff and it went away. The problem is i dont know what fixed it, but it was one of these things in the post. Also try deleting all your saved wifi networks, and connecting to them again.

This solution will come with consequences tho. Google Services Framework (GSF) is responsible, besides other things, for C2DM which basically is "push notifications".
Most of Google apps as well as other apps receiving notifications rely on C2DM. Reseting the data for GSF will most probably solve the issue but bear in mind that you also might need to clear data for apps relying on GSF. That means setting up apps like Whatsapp, Viber, Gmail, Facebook, Twitter etc. from scratch.

Ι've started having problems with push notifications since a couple of days.
I'm not sure what's going on but it's frustrating.
I've googled around and I've seen various problems, especially in the Nexus 4 and some older HTC phones. It seems to be more of an Android problem than a model specific. Various solutions are proposed but with no apparent success (except using an app that wakes the wifi, but needs rooting).
I'm full stock with nothing fancy.
Situation:
Wi-Fi on - No Power Saver, WiFi Always On, No Sleep Data etc
After about 10 minutes give or take with the screen off Whatsapp, Hangouts, Facebook messages etc come with a big delay.
Only Viber seems to work perfectly. I've tried various times and each time the messages I sent to myself from other phones or the PC came with a delay of about 5'-10' with the exception of Viber.
I still haven't tested this with other wifi networks.
I'm almost sure that this delay is relatively new. If the phone "wakes", then the messages are instantly delivered.
3G on
Although I haven't tested it that much, it seems that everything works fine when using Data connection.
Any ideas? Are there any other options on the phone that I should try toggling?
Ι believe that WA, FB and Hangouts were updated these last days or am I wrong?

I am able to get push notifications using Exchange Activesync with a Google Apps gmail account, through the HTC One stock email program.
However, setting up my personal gmail account in the gmail app, I get no push notifications whatsoever, I have to manually check the app to receive my emails, which is pointless...
I have checked all my settings and I can't see anything amiss, this hasnt worked since purchase, but its beginning to really grind on me, as I need to know if I have an email...
Could anyone assist?

LG 70 works now...

Offline but connected

Hello,
My smartwatch LG G Watch R is connected throug bluetooth, but 9 out of 10 times teh ok google says its offline, with a slashed cloud.
I have allready factory reset both phone and watch.
Reinstall Google Now
Check settings 100 times
Is my watch broken? Or can this be another problem?
regards,
Frans

I have had this a couple of times. It is the phone not connecting to the internet. I only have had it when on wifi. Switched wifi on phone off and on and that fixed it.
Does it happen on wifi and mobile data?

Hi. Yes it means that it's connected to the phone but the phone is not connected to the Internet.

Have the same problem; it's connected via bluetooth AND voice recognition works perfectly on the phone - any ideas anyone ?
Ash

seems to be when i receive a card, directly after it wont connect

Hi all, I've registered in order to ask exactly the same question.
Every time I use some voice recognition (i.e. give an order, answer to someone...) I got these "offline" errors same as OP.
"Offline" or "Can't reach Google at the moment" even if my phone is 100% with internet conectivity.
Anyone got this fixed? Any troubleshooting around it?
Thanks in advance !

I'd expect it would happen if you have a battery saver like Juice Defender on the phone that turns off data when the screen is off, or only switches it on every 15 mins etc. I'd turn off any battery saving stuff on the phone that could be doing anything like that and see if there's any improvement

At least I, I don't have any kind of battery saving application...

Add me to this list. Total garbage. I've had this watch for a few days and I'm very underwhelmed because of this problem.

I've experienced the same problem. Watch works when wifi is active but goes" offline" when only connected to data. I believe I've come across a solution. It's working for me.
Switch on background data for Google search.(on your phone) That worked for me.
Go to settings, data usage, scroll down to Google search (should be there on the list) and make sure background data isn't restricted.
Hope this helps. Good luck guys/girls.

Nope no joy for me with this...
No ticks in any app on that list..!
These constant disconnects are really getting to me now !
Strangely I'm on a note 3 too, albeit running the leaked lollipop rom, I take it your still on stock KitKat firmware ?
I was going to flash back to 4.4.3 stock to see if it cures it but if you're still on this I won't bother.

Looks like a very common problem across all android wear watches.
Even though I have a G Watch R, I've had a nosey around and according to the Moto 360 forums they are having the same issues so I would guess either lollipop on the watch has an issue or the latest android wear app.. rather than the watch itself if the 360 is doing the same.
And I don't think it did this when the Mrs first bought my watch and let me try it out prior to putting it away for xmas.
I had a good few hours playing with it to make sure it was working ok and what I wanted for my xmas present
This was before the updates to the app and watch firmware.
Had it been like it is now I think I would have sent it back...!
Hopefully it will get fixed after the New Year and everyone gets back to their jobs at Google..

Most of the functions still go to the "cloud" to work, so if you have any battery saving "features" enabled that restrict Google Play Service, then you'll likely to run into problems.
I've seen this problem also and it was caused by my flakey wifi connection or trying to make the watch do something while out of signal (like in an elevator). But that not the watch's fault...
You can try downloading the voice recognition offline, that could help, but it still neds internet to work properly. Uninstall all batery saving garbage (I have yet to see a working one) and try again.

Sorry to hear that it didn't work for you. I had that problem on 4.3 and upgraded to 4.4 thinking it would solve the issue. Changing bootloaders, roms, android versions didn't fix it until I reenabled background data.
I was rooted running jedi 4.3 rom when I got my g watch r. Switched to PAC ROM 4.4.4 and the prob was still there. It's all good now though. Good luck and hope you find a fix. I totally understand your frustration.

Any news or way to solve this ?

[Q] WiFi syncing

Hi all,
Purchased the watch couple days ago, yesterday was my first day to really put it through it's paces. Everything seems copacetic except for the WiFi syncing. I've got cloud sync turned on in the Wear app, and WiFi on the watch is set to "Automatic". I verified the watch is indeed connected to a valid WiFi network, with no exclamation points, etc., and I turn off BT on my phone (but keep it's data connection on.) I then try sending a text from the watch, no luck - "Try again from your phone." fail message. I send myself a text from my wife's phone to my phone, the phone registers it, but the watch doesn't. I go into Keep and delete a note on the phone, the watch still shows it. It's not until they reconnect via BT that everything syncs again. Oh, and I tried it on three different WiFi networks (2 at work, 1 at home), no success.
Here's the only thing that I can think of being different. The very first time I turned WiFi off on the watch, there's was a small Yes/No splash screen that came up saying something to the effect of "turning this off will prevent you from syncing"... I THINK. Honestly I can't recall what it said precisely (I was too excited playing with the watch), but the multiple times I've toggled WiFi since then, I have not seen that message again. Anyone know what message I'm talking about? Of course since it hasn't come up again I'm convinced it's the reason WiFi syncing isn't working now. I even factory reset the watch and cleared the data on my Wear app, hoping to get that message back. (It could be completely unrelated, it's just bugging me that ever since I chose "Yes I'm sure", syncing has not worked.)
Thanks in advance for any ideas/suggestions.

Did you ever figure this out?
I have the LG WATCH R with the Urbane rom and have the same issue. It shows connect to Wifi just fine but if I am away from the phone, I cannot send anything...just like when I have no connection.
I think the pop up you mentioned just had a option to prevent the warning from coming up again but should not affect the option to disable and enable the cloud sync.

Nope, afraid not. I posted it to the Google Android wear forums and a couple of "experts" replied to me with suggestions that did not help (factory reset, mainly.)

Yep that has been my "solutions" too so far. I am not sure how the Cloud Sync works do you? It is linked to your Google account? If so, I have 3 email accounts..could that create an issue? I am basically looking for anything right now

Here's what I did find out: my daily driver phone is a Moto X 2nd gen running Lollipop. I factory reset an old Samsung S4 and set it up with a Google account I'd just created. I then factory reset the watch and paired it to that phone. Wouldn't you know, the WiFi notifications worked!
I then factory reset the S4 again, this time using my main Google account to set it up. Factory reset the watch again also. After pairing them, the WiFi notifications did NOT work!
So, I can only conclude the issue is caused by how I have my main Google account configured, although right now I've gone through all the settings twice and verified that I have all of my sharing settings (like location) enabled. Argh.

Well my LG Watch R is now able to work with Wifi for real but only at home. Not sure what I did...I just deleted my accounts from Settings and added them back.
At work, though even when it shows connected, I do not receive any info from the Phone which is very lame since it was at work where I could really use it.

I have 3 google accounts so I actually deleted only two that are not my primary. Then I went to the Sync options and made sure all was checked.
Then also for the Location I removed any other devices that are showing under my account that are not my Phone (tablet and older phones) but not sure which one of those did the trick.

Huh, okay, I'll give those a try. Thanks.
I did open a ticket with Android Wear Support and was told they were going to escalate the issue and I'd be contacted in 48 hours. That was Sunday. I just asked for an update and they replied that they have no solution ATM and no time frame to provide one. Heh! Oh well.

Google Assistant over Mobile Data

I just updated my watch to Android Wear 2.0
If I try to use Google Assistant while my phone is connected to WiFi, it works (and really well, like to send a whatsapp to someone)
The moment I try to use Google Assistant without WiFi (over Mobile Data) it says 'Can't reach Google, check if watch is connected to WiFi or your phone'
Funny thing: if I connect the phone to a WiFi signal WITHOUT Internet connection, assistant works again...?
Does anyone else have this problem? I already tried enabling every option at Settings/Apps/System Apps/Google ...

Well that is one of the reasons I rolled back to 1.5.
It would work sometimes and many times it would give me that cant reach message so basically it was making my watch useless as it was very inconsistent. :/

I'm having the same issues, I've done the enabling permissions thing as well. Any one have any other experience with the issue?
Along side google assistant not working the play store won't load or even the weather!
That being said, even though those services aren't working google maps on wear runs fine.
These are some odd problems.
*** Update! ***
Not sure what happened but for some reason it started working.

Did you factory reset anything? (your phone or watch?) installed or flash something?

Well I am on the 2 core enabled kernal. I also followed instructions to give Google all permissions on the app Page. I turned on location from phone on the watch (not sure if that helps) and probably reset about 5-7 times haha.

Sure, open settings--> apps ---> (Scroll down) system apps ----> google ---> permissions ---> enable permission to phone/etc... (I enabled all of them)

I noticed something today, make sure you have location services turned on, on your phone. I turned it off for a minute by accident and noticed none of the google assistant stuff worked anymore, back on and it worked well!

Thank you! I'll try it next time I update to AW2, right now I'm using 1.5 again

Also having somewhat of the same issue... Here's what's happening to me.
Sometimes Google Assistant works and sometimes it's doesn't for me. When it's not working my watch shows that I am not connected to Bluetooth in the connectivity settings. However, my phone (ZTE Blade X Max Z983) shows I'm fully connected, and I'm getting all notifications as normal on my Asus Zenwatch 2. If I reboot both devices everything works perfectly as it should for a short time. And of course it works fine when I'm connected to WiFi, just not over Bluetooth on a mobile data connection. Both my phone and my watch are running 7.1 so I'm not sure if the where the issue lies.

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?
