Does anyone else have the problem where SMS arrive much later than they were sent? I have been experiencing this quite regularly. They usually come through when I turn the screen back on. Can anyone think why this is happening. Its as if the device isnt waking up to let me know there is a SMS.
Thanks

Its probably a network issue... I dint have any issues as such...
I would also think that this is most probably a network issue. Maybe it would be worth trying a different radio?!

Hmm, did you pay the sms mailman enough?
Hmm I haven't had problems with lates SMS, but I have had problems with text messages being so long in length that it seems that the inbox cuts the rest off... don't know why though
YES - I've had the exact same issue and it's driving me crazy. I get text messages delivered at 2am that were sent at 2pm. And it appears completely random - I can send myself a text message and it arrives in a few seconds .. I can send another one a few minutes later and it arrives 6 hours later. Am gonna call Sprint because this is very annoying. Touch Pro for me - never had this problem prior to purchasing the TP.
Try advanced config and enabling "wake up on new sms".
I have already enabled wake on new sms. Seems really weird, happened again today.
I have only had this issue with Verizon sending to AT&T so i would think it is a translation issue
I had the same problem with my TP purchased i Norway. I went for a whole day without getting any sms'es and thougt that it was weird. So i turned my device on and off. And suddenly i got like 6 messages.. And after that I got some sms'es if i made a call or if i used gprs or 3g connections. Or if i turned my device on and off as mentioned. But it got so bad that i had to hard reset my device.. Realy annoying..
This was happening to me on my Fuze so I did a hard reset and now it is fine. I would suggest doing that. Be sure to backup anything important (pics, vids, etc.) before because they will be gone on a hard reset.
Well this set a new record for me - 2.5 hours on the phone with Sprint Technical Support .. but, am very happy to say the problem has been fixed.
FINALLY I was able to get to someone (Level 2 Tech) that was actually determined to fix the problem, even though we couldn't replicate it right away. Turns out it is a rare problem that they describe as a "traffic jam" in the routing to my phone, and they ran what they called the "Text Message Plunger" (no I'm not making this up!) - and it fixed it completely, and texts starting coming through instantly and no problems since. It seems this is a known problem, albeit a rare one.
But if your texts randomly show up hours late - this seems to be the problem. But I can tell you - no one in customer service or Tech Level 1 could even come close. In fact, with my initial attempt at Tech Level 1, she spent 5 minutes on the problem, then she apologized for the "nationwide outage", credited me $60, and said there was nothing they can do until that is fixed. Realizing this was BS - called right back and finally got to a Level 2 Tech who seemed much more interested in fixing the problem.
So would recommend calling and immediately trying to get to the higher tech support. I'm so glad they were able to fix it on their end rather than trying to get a new phone, or having to do a hard reset.
guys, please help me out, whenever I touch a notification, nothing happens, in facebook for android app, It worked perfectly till 2 days ago but now, since I don't have my PC, it is disturbing me a lot.
I have this issue too (similar)
Honestly, the only push notifications I ever see from fb are messages, and when I try to click it, nothing happens.
I don't know how but they started working on their own again, maybe it was a temporary problem at facebook's server
I can't remember the last time I had a facebook notification. I've got notifications enabled but haven't seen any for a very long time, I just assumed it stopped working since Facebook Messenger was released
try and see if you get same problem with 3g or wifi. I had same problem but with 3g only and that is because it can take longer to load.
They stopped working for a while for me too but now they seem to be back. I haven't ever counted on them working because it's always been pretty spotty
Same error here
Maybe it's going to be a update with facebook app.
I get those notifications too and they are anoying.
It just about time to wait an update from FB devs.

If they were to ever put any actual care into their Android app... :/
Notifications for Facebook never seem to work. I have tried to unistall/reinstall, turn notifications off then back on, doesn't matter. They really need an overhaul of the app!
Yeah i had problems getting the notifications to work on android 2.3.6 on my note. They opened about half the time. I'm trying out ICS now and hopefully it'll work better!
Guys, Im on ICS resurrection remix for a time now, and the bugs you refer are still there, to me the app's faulty. Its only useful when you want to share a photo
is better use a web browser alternative
has been happening to me for the past few weeks. doesn't always happen though, more like randomly
I previously had a Samsung Galaxy S3 that ran Android 4.1.2. Push notifications would come through pretty much instantly.
Now that I have my Nexus 5, I'm noticing that push notificiations are delayed. For example, I might receive an email on my PC saying that someone has posted on my Facebook timeline, but a notification doesn't pop up on my phone for 10-15 minutes later. Sometimes I get no notifications for a while because they're delayed, then the notification sound on my phone will go off 3 or 4 times in a row as a bunch of notifications from different apps have all arrived at once.
Also, sometimes I got no notification at all. For instance, I sold an item on eBay and usually I would get a notification that it has sold. On this particular occasion, no notification appeared. The same has happened with Facebook. Sometimes I will go to Facebook and find that a friend has written on my timeline, yet I didn't receive a notification about it on the phone.
I Googled this issue and found it was a problem that plagued the Nexus 4, so I'm wondering if it also affects the Nexus 5 too. Does anyone else have this issue with the Nexus 5? Is there any fix for it?
I get this too, but not very often. Most of the time I find my phone gets notifications before my PC or other phone does. But there are occasions, particularly when I'm not on WiFi, when I either get delayed notifications, or I won't get them at all, until I reconnect to WiFi.
It's been happening to me, including when I was running totally stock w/ locked bootloader. I'm on Sprint. Not sure if it's a data issue or phone issue.
Turning off wifi optimization solved my delayed corporate email (outlook) notification.
Thanks for the replies.
I'm having this issue while connected to Wi-Fi, although I haven't tested to see if the issue occurs via my mobile network as well. I have tried 2 factory resets, but that didn't fix it.
It's almost like, when the screen is off and the phone sleeps, it loses the ability to receive push notifications, but then after a while it suddenly regains it and that causes a bunch of notifications to arrive at once.
I've contacted Google support about it, so I'll see what they say.

Any update on this? What did they say? I have the same problem and it's driving me crazy.. I came from GS3 and notifications were instantaneous... on this one I have to open lets say Whatsapp every other minute to check if someone sent me a message... and even sometimes I open the app and it takes some time for the internet to "wake up" and finally refresh the app... it sucks... I would return my phone if this can't be fixed easily..
So any update or solution on this would be gratly appreciated. Thanks

Google ended up offering me a replacement phone, but that didn't go too well. The new phone they sent wouldn't connect to my Wi-Fi network, so I contacted them to return it but they told me I had to return my original phone, get another replacement, and only then could I return the second one. Obviously, each time they sent out a phone they were putting holds on my credit card for £xxx so in the end I phoned up and complained. To cut a long story short, I still have the original phone and I haven't decided what to do yet.

Interesting, I have just turned this off on mine too to see.
I only get delays when I am connected to my home wifi (2.4 or 5GHz). Maybe it is because I only have a 4mb ADSL connection ...
I will check tonight if that fixes it and/or also try the PNF app.
any update or fix on this yet? this is driving me mad, every time I get a notification on twitter or my email my idol picks it up first and my phone gets it 8-9 minutes later even if I'm using it at that moment, anybody else get the delay even while using the device?
All of a sudden I have started facing this problem since the past few days
Yeah..same here

I am using Moto g and I think its an issue with KitKat rather than with the hardware or the network. My push notifications are being delayed and that wasnt the case with JB 4.2 on my earlier phones.
Very frustrating
I've not been getting google hangouts messages until 20-30 mins later. sometimes i never get a notification, but if i check hangouts i see a new message. Another times i only get the message on the computer, but never on the phone. if i go and clear the app data new messages show up
My push notifications were coming through very quickly up until 2 weeks ago. I have not changed devices, carriers, or installed any new apps. One day they were coming through fine, now they are delayed by up to 30 minutes. My phone has not installed any OS updates either.
I have factory reset my phone, once restoring from cloud, the other not restoring at all and setting up the phone from scratch. This is really irritating. It does it on mobile networks or wifi.
Moto G is frustrating
It's frustrating.
I searched google without obtaining a solution. Moto G and sometimes I get delayed notifications and not others.
Facebook does not even make the notifications. In Whatsapp I have to open it every 2 minutes to see if someone has written. What not to do. I'm bored with this phone.
No solution or google and motorola solve it. Cursed kitkat!
Anything new? This problem is old and comes from the Nexus 4. I really am very sad about it, not PNF solving this.
I've been pulling my hair out trying to figure this out. It definitely started after i upgraded my s2 to kitkat rom back in december. At first i thought it had to do with the PM sleep modes but none of them make a bit of difference. Ive goggled it to death and this thread is the only one ive found.
Currently im going to try the suggestion on the first page to turn off wifi optimization as my phone only does this on wifi. when i use mobile data everything works as expected
EDIT: WIFI optimization makes no difference
Push Notifications
I have faced this problem on both my S4 and S5 on sprint. I think it has to do with sprint closing open tcp connections prematurely, which causes push notifications to fail.
Running the app Root-Push Notifications Fixer, or Unrooted version has worked for me. The root version seems to be more reliable.

Hey man I'm just wondering, does your problem persist on Wi-Fi and mobile data? I have a thread over in i777 thread about this issue. Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2717998

I only experienced the problem over sprint's network.
I am having significant delays in receiving push notifications for anything - gmail, whatsapp etc.
I just bought the Nexus 5 and have been on an iPhone my whole life.
On my iPhone I never had any issue with push notifications and they came instantly. So I know that there can't be any issue with the network!?
I have been playing around with my friend's whatsapp and sending me messages and they don't come instantly - instead they are delayed. Sometimes even as big as 20 minutes. (Don't forget that everything was instant on my iPhone 4). This matter is the same on the Nexus whether I am on Wifi or Cellular.
I have also downloaded an App to help resolve this 'Push notifier fix - No Root' to help address the issue but no success.
Also want to add - Just sent myself an email - which came pretty quickly on my nexus...then another 2 emails to see succession rates...and they didn't even come through
PS - I am on the new Android 4.4.2 (and only got the phone a few days ago)
Any ideas??
Thanks !!!!
If your using the same sim, try opening whatsapp on your old phone and derigester it. Message should auto pop up
Edit, you don't need to move the sim back. Just open the whatsapp app

Sounds like your network connection that's causing it. I always get stuff instantly on my nexus 5 unless I am in a bad reception area.
Happens to me at work as the WiFi is flakey (orange bars in quick settings). At home it's all instant
Hi there!
I've contacted nvidia regarding this issue (reps seems oblivious) and posted it on their official forums to no avail, so I'll try and give it a shot here.
Basically whenever my tablet connects to WiFi after being disconnected for some time (a few hours to a few days), the tablet freezes when it downloads notifications. The freezes can be minimal (like a 5 second freeze) or be quiet substantial (it can lock up for as long as 10 mins). Once all notifications are downloaded and displayed, the tablet then performs like a charm. I even got my tablet replaced from nvidia and it has the same problem as the one I sent in. Uninstalling Facebook and Facebook Messenger improves performance drastically, but when my tablet checks for notifications it freezes still freezes for a few seconds (with Facebook installed, it could lock up for 10 mins and crash the launcher multiple times). Running on max performance did nothing. I'm really curious if this is a hardware or software issue since some people doesn't seem to have this problem.
I'm running on nvidia's stock firmware (4.2) unrooted.
So here is my question. Have any of you guys experienced this problem? Were you able to solve it? How did you solve it (did a custom rom solve this)?
The main reason why I haven't installed a custom rom yet is because I use the stylus frequently and I use the touch-block feature in nvidia's stock roms and couldn't find ports of it.
Here is a video of the issue. (youtube.com/watch?v=cJrUPV7mY6s) Now there are a lot of widgets on the video, but I assure you removing all of them does nothing. I tried.
Facebook Messenger. That says it all. What other apps have you running in the background?
This definitely sounds like a software issue to me.
Maybe you're being hijacked. Who knows.
I've had this same issues since I got the tablet (K1). System reset, no non-Google apps. Happens regardless of FW; I'm on the latest update. Don't be quick to blame the OP.
Basically, every time the tablet gets a new network connection, the system hangs and becomes unresponsive for 10 seconds to 2 minutes at a time. It's obvious that it's updating all the apps' network requests. However, the thread priority should make the system hang. I've only seen this issue on the K1; never on any other Android device. Either they're using a custom network stack, or they've messed with networking priorities.
I'm on the latest update

Of Facebook Messenger? Or OS? Or all apps?
Either way, it makes no matter no such issues on Lollipop. I am just saying.
