So I had a Note previously, WhatsApp worked perfectly fine.
I notice now that there are a lot of weird notification issues now. I ran some tests and this is what I've found.
Screen On - Clear all apps with Task Manager. Exit to home screen. Meaning, WhatsApp is not running in the background, not running at all. I use my girlfriends phone to send me 10 + messages. I get NO pushed messages, no notifications. Nothing happens. I then launch the app and see that I have 10+ unread messages under her name. I click to read the messages, and exit back to the home screen (either back arrow or home button). I send another message from her phone, and NOW I see the notifications.
Screen Off - (sleeping but app is still in the background) - I send a message from her phone, get NO push notification. But... as soon as I hit the power button to light up the screen (wake from sleep), I get the notification in the bar. I read the message, clear the notification bar.. then put the phone back to sleep. Same thing happens. While the screen is off, I get no push notifications until I turn on the screen.
Anyone having weird issues with WhatsApp? It can't be the app because it works perfectly normal on my Samsung Note. I'm thinking ICS broke it some how.
The notifications works fine for me with whatsapp. The only thing is that when I hit clear in the notification bar and haven't read the actual message, the notification will reappear again.

Same thing here just happened with me on my HTC ONE S , if screen if off and whatsapp is running i get no notification, however as soon as i press the power button immediately i get notified and the weird thing is the notification sound is the default ringtone while in whatsapp settings i have another tone set. Whatsapp was working fine. I tried reinstalling, force stopping, rebooting.
My phone is stock rom no root any help would be appreciated
EDIT (SOLVED): Disable Fast Boot under power options in settings, disabling it fixed my problem (Read it somewhere online)
I have problems with notifications when wifi is on. No problems w/out wifi
I have exact same issue on my Xperia Arc...with or without Wifi...I have ICS 4.0.3
I think it is phone independent issue...
i think you all should stop closing all apps from the task manager and everything would be fine.
you cant shut down all apps and then expect from them to work.
(at004 solution could help too)
Sorry to revive this thread, but I have a solution to the problem (I think) and I thought I might share it.
Some routers flag push messages as "Anonymous Internet Requests" which the NAT dismisses. This will effectively kill push and you'll only get your messages on the next sync.
To counter this problem you can forward the google push port to your phone.
You'll need a static IP for the phone. The port Google uses for push messages is 5228 on TCP.
Good luck with your problems!
ahh.. i got the notification problem.. there is no sound or vibrate for incoming whatsapp messages..

This happens on my brand new nexus 4
This used to happen way back when I first got my One X, but it is solved now. I thought it was because I had rooted and gone with a newer build, but I got a replacement One X stock with 2.20 and notifications work fine when screen is off.
Same issue in my nexus 4
I'm facing the same issue in my nexus 4.But this is applicable to the application which having the same properties of WhatsApp.For eg Viber.
When we are in the screen of Whats App and Viber i'm getting the notification otherwise not..
I also noticed one more thing unless we open the application the data notification in the signal bar is idle. I don't why its like that.Usually it should be always active.

Same here, with the same phone and running CyanogenMod 7.2.0.
Also seeking help on the same issue.
Seems there's no point to use this "instant" messager with this defect.
Go and complain with the makers of it as you have paid for it and using a custom ROM is 100% supported...
This is a users forum guys. If you install custom ROM some things may not work as on stock ROM.
We share experience and knowledge but not complaining about the product or demanding for a solution.
Go to WhatsApp website and tell them about the issue. I doubt they read this post.

Hi Everyone,
I have recently had cause to restore a backup which I created using TWRP v2.6.0.0. Whilst most of the restored data appears to be in tact, and apps are behaving as I would expect I am unable to access Settings. Whenever I click on Settings the screen flashes (with what looks like the Settings screen) for a split second before returning to the home screen.
Has anybody else experienced this issue and if so can you offer any suggestions on how to fix it?
Kind regards,
Davo
Hi,
I do not use the Yellow pages app provided by Xiaomi and I have never run it before.
Therefore, in the settings, I have removed the Telephone permission.
However, after reboot, the phone was crashing in loop when displaying the Lock screen.
The only way I have found to fix it was to wipe data and doing that removes all personal files from storage memory (pictures and so on). :crying:
I have attempted to change many settings during the week-end and reproduced that issue.
I am sure about what I say:
Warning : you can remove permissions to any pre-installed app except the Telephone permission for the Yellow pages app.
Have fun
Hi,
I enabled "restrict background battery" for few apps, but after reboot, those settings are lost.
I have a pixel 7 (not a pro), and the problem (according to this post) seems to affect other permissions..
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-permissions-lost-daily.4514687/
Does anyone else have the same problem?
My permissions seem to get lost sometimes randomly. Not after each reboot and not every morning/day. Just randomly.

I have met the same issue once:
One day I was looking pictures from Google album app, and suddenly the phone reboot automatically, then all the apps' permission lost (even notification, battery settings....)
And for now, my system color settings lost when phone reboot or shutdown:
Issue with Material You color setting?
There is someting weird with my color settings. As we know, in Android 13, the system will pick color-sets automatically when you changed background image. I find that if i pick color-sets by myself, not the system selected color-set, when the...
