issues staying connected to rcs in Google messages? - Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers

Has anyone been having issues where rcs keeps connecting and disconnecting lately? I just started having this issue yesterday once I rooted. Haven't before then.

Think I fixed it clearing carrier services.

Nevermind it's still saying connecting...

Dozing "Google play services" with Franco's naptime app seems to be the issue

Try to enable airplane mode and disable it again. Maybe will fix the problem.

I figured it out. It was from the Naptime app that creates a module to doze "Google play services"

Mine has been working ever since I disabled a module that made Google play services sleep.

Module in the app Naptime that would force Google play services into doze

I'm on verizon and it completely disappeared on me last month. Never have been able to get it back at all...

Try clearing data in Google play services and Carrier services
I'm on Verizon also

While this thread is very old, I can confirm that using, "doze" on Messages (and possibly Carrier Services, although I didn't try that) causes endless issues with Messages and Carrier Services. Personally, I didn't use Franco's Naptime app, but instead SecureTask (w/Device Owner), and that causes the issue. (Doze is the same thing as Freeze for Android Enterprise). It's quite unfortunate since I wanted to provide a way to secure the Messages app, but I've now taken alternate approaches to do so.

Of course - details are always better! Here are some screenshots. I just re-installed the system yesterday (from N release 3 to TuPac's Lite 6.0.1 ROM). Charged overnight and listened to a few minutes of music this morning. The rest of the time the phone has been idle.

Looks similar to an issue I had, turned out it was an issue that Google play services was having trouble with system update feature. It started when I switch from stock to Pure Nexus rom the rom, and many others, does something to disable the update button in the settings app but in some cases Google Play Services holds a wakelock for it for some reason or another. The way I fixed it was wiping Google play services and uninstalling its updates and letting it start fresh. Also if you have the app "GasBuddy" installed it causes a bluetooth wakelock, it only shows up in kernel wakelocks as "bluesleep," looking for beacons at gas stations to send you ads.

Thanks for the tip. No Gasbuddy installed. A few weeks back I had FiveStars installed (a purchasing points app) and it caused a huge Bluetooth wakelock. But that was removed a while ago and didn't affect Google Play Services.

looks like its google play services updating itself or something. that happens every once in a while. best thing to do is to leave it alone for a day or two and it should "fix" itself after. but in a day or two, check your battery again just to make sure.

There is an app in the playstore called 'Disable services.
You can disable the services you don't use/need.
In case anyone has this same issue, I think I found the problem and solution. The latest version of Google Play Services causes a massive wakelock on ROMs that are blocking system update checks.
Using the DisableService app I enabled the update service and the wakelock has disappeared.

I've noticed the GPS wakelock using GPS on my N5, my wife's N5X, and a buddy's 6P as well. Did you enable systemupdateservice in only Google Play Services or both GPS and Google Services Framework? Both were disabled for me... Thanks in advance!

Just Google Play Services. I didn't think of looking in GS Framework.

Google Services Battery use

Hi, is it normal this huge battery use by the Google Services?
Mine has seemed rather high recently too, and I am getting poor screen times.

Nope its not seems right.
google play services should be around %3-6. max.
did u try factory reset?
Well, that was too much I guess. Gotta look at your logcat, probably it's stuck doing something.

What should I do?
Edit: I flashed a new MIUI Multi v. 8.0.3.0. So far so good.
Edit: Unfortunately the problem persists. The Battery use of the Google Play service is about 17% so far. Is there any solution?

It is caused by google location services not working properly in MIUI 8. Turn off location in settings or set to device only.

I have the issue even with location off. Same problem exists on 8.1.3.0 stable. I think it depends on WiFi rather than GPS.

After turning location off, restart phone. If it still happens with location off then its a different problem completely.
Turn off Google Location History?
Now I have the same issue with the Google play services on eu Stable 8.6.1. The battery drain is about 22%. How can I track what cause this? Can it be app or phone related? Obviously only few of us have this bug.

Audio stops when screen sleeps

I have a Moto G6, Android 8.1, rooted, and I'm having an annoying issue I haven't been able to Google the solution to. When my screen goes to sleep the audio stops almost right away. This is true for both streaming music and downloaded content (podcasts, audiobooks), so I think it's some battery saving setting I can't find rather than network related. Let me know if any of you have solved this issue or have suggestions. Thanks!

Are you using Magisk? If so, try disabling it and listen to audio while the screen is off. If it doesn't stop, it's Magisk.
I had a similar issue on a Pie GSI where the audio would skip while the screen is off. I haven't used Magisk since.
Yeah, I'm using Magisk. Tried uninstalling it but the issue is still happening. After screen goes black audio is fine for about 30s then skips and stops. Not sure what else it could be...

Check in the specific apps setting under settings, apps, whichever app, and check to see if it says battery optimization. If it's optimized, try switching to not optimized[
Or if you have ambient display disabled, switch it on, worked for me

I've got battery optimization turned off for the 3 apps I'm testing this with, but still having the same problem. I'm not finding "ambient display" in my settings (Android 8.1), but I went into "LiveDisplay" and I have a setting called "Display mode" that was set to "automatic." I switched this to "Off" and the problem went away! Thanks for your help.

I spoke too soon and the problem persists. Any other ideas what might be causing this? It stutters a bit and then goes silent right after the screen goes black. Real deal breaker for listening to podcasts and audiobooks on my long commute, so I'd appreciate any solution you all can think of. Thanks!

It sounds like what was happening to me with YouTube. Every time my screen would go to sleep, it would start stuttering. I guess it was doze causing it and whitelisting it made it stop. I wonder if switching live display to on would be any different? What magisk modules are you using? I know GMS doze and sysconfig patcher will cause that, because YouTube is a Google app

I seem to have it resolved right now. I've got live display OFF and I exempted my 3 audio apps from battery optimization. I've completely uninstalled Magisk though, so I'm not sure if I'll cause the problem again when I re-root. Maybe I should go back to using SuperSU rather than Magisk (?)

It works in a few rare instances on Oreo. Definitely not pie. SuperSU has been dead and not updated for a long time now.

This audio problem is back. I didn't change any settings. Live Display is off, audio apps are not optimized in terms of battery. All I did was reboot my phone. Was working fine. I can't figure out what I'm missing but it's a really annoying problem. Any ideas?

Issue: No Voice Turn By Turn Navigation

Hello,
My new pixel 4xl is working great except for 2 reasons. The main one being I don't get turn by turn voice navigation. I get no voice at all when navigating. COnsidering I drive for Uber on the side this is very bad.
I checked all settings and they are all correct as far as I can tell - play over bluetooth and everything is on. Doesn't matter if I am on BT or not, nothing. I've tried rebooting of course.
Help?

Did you by chance hit the mute button while navigating? I normally turn mine off and it stays off

"ok Google" not working

Anyone else? P4xl
Only works after I've opened the app
Occasionally when I unlock my phone after being asleep it won't respond to ok Google...
Battery opt is off
Cleared cache with no luck

A few reports of the same on Aussie Whirlpool. I wonder if it's language setting bug.
Mine is fine so far, but I'm still stuck on the old Assistant due to having a GSuite account on the P4XL.

Noticed it since moving onto the new assistant
I have the same issue. need to open open first before it works. i think it started to happen on dec build for me
Same here since running custom roms...
Any known fix? Pretty annoying not being able to use a feature properly
Weird, I have the opposite problem. It's overly sensitive for me, it'll just randomly go off in my pocket when I'm having a conversation
