The last few days I haven't been getting any notifications of sms. I am on stock 1.73, no root, stock sense sms app. No other sms apps installed. It's getting really frustrating when the wife texts me and I don't get it (and even more frustrating for her). I've checked all the notification settings and they're all checked.
Any thoughts on what to do? I think I'm just going to take it back to att and swap it out for a new one.

My first One X did that. I replaced it and my new one notifys me every time.. Return it.

Do you by any chance have the Visual Voicemail app running (either the market or the XDA hacked version). It was preventing my sms form reliably notifying me (about half of the time). Removed, and fixed.
Did you check the settings in the SMS app itself? There are seperate ones for SMS if you go messages>menu>settings>notifications

Uninstall and should fix your problem. At least that was my solution .
Go to SMS settings the notifications check vibrate on receive.

I just uninstalled my visual voicemail and will see if that helps
My wife and I each have this phone, and we both downloaded VVM app. After a few days I decided to uninstall mine but my wife kept hers, and she isn't getting (or randomly gets) sms notifications. I get all notifications promptly. I am going to uninstall VVM and see if that works. Also both phones are stock and not rooted.
Have this problem as well but don't have the VVM app. Stock 1.7, no root or unlock, no secondary sms apps.

Mine seems hit and miss. Sometimes there will be the flashing light. Sometimes there won't. I just turned on the vibrate when received option to see if that will affect it any.

It's been a while - did uninstalling VVM work for you?
I installed VVM from the .apk that was floating around and she has issues with missing SMS notifications. She'd much rather have accurate notifications than VVM.
Does uninstalling after you've set VVM up have any ill effects? Does traditional voicemail still work OK?
Thanks,

Hey everyone having this issue - I have had this REALLY frustrating issue, with no solution found (and Telstra unable to provide help), so I widened my search to all phones. It appears to be an even bigger issue with some WP7.5 phones if that makes you feel better.
Anyway, what the issue seems to be is as follows:
The SMS message is sent from the carrier and received perfectly according to their reports, and in actual fact it is received perfectly, but here's the catch:
Messagebank does not receive a NEW message, it UPDATES the existing SMS you probably have in your phone!
SOLUTION: It's not a great one, but if you DELETE the Messagebank SMS text message thread every time you have received one and checked the voicemail, the next voicemail you receive will notify you properly as every other SMS does.
Hope this helps someone until a better solution is found (auto-delete voicemial texts anyone?).
Why are you guys still on 1.73?
This got fixed (along with lots of other things) ever since I upgraded to 1.85. If you don't want to upgrade for whatever reason, I heard some people used GoSMS instead and that worked.
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.

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
Hello all,
I left my phone fully charged in airplane mode for overnight to check the idle consumption. In the morning I found my phone at 68%, with Assist using up like 80% of that missing.
I already connected Moto with the issue, here is what I tried:
Force stop Assist: after a few minutes it started again and still had the wakelock.
Reboot: still wakelock
Reboot to safe mode: still wakelock
Force stop assist and clear cache and data: still wakelockafter it restarted
Uninstall updates, disable and enable app: new wakelock started in a few secounds and kept on...
For now I have disabled it to see if the consumption is gone, will post more info if I find anything.
My settings in assist:
Meeting, Sleeping, Driving checked in settings
Only the sleeping is used to silence calls from 12-6:30 am with favourites and double callers allowed.
Please share your ideas about possible solutions. I don't need this app too much, but it will be probably more feature packed in the future and I'm also not sure if it really is the root cause of the problem.
The phone is a 1032 UK stock 4.3

Weird, maybe with KitKat they'll make it fully featured - can't think why they would reduce the functionality for the G
btw don't ever boot to safe mode, it's worse than factory reset. messes up the account management and for example calendar is asking for account, but says that my account can't be added again...

Hi,
noticed something similar just yesterday - Motorola Assist suddenly appeared in the battery overview and most likely refused to work properly at the same time. I have configured sleeping mode to have the phone silenced from 2300h - 0600h, yet Assist did not seem to manage to silence the phone at all. Before that, the app used to work flawlessly.
Best wishes,
Karsten

Thanks for your feedback, one of my friends had the same experience as yours, so this issue definitely exists on more devices.

I have the same issue yesterday. But I checked this morning and assist seems working. Can anyone verify this?
Yeah I had something similar. Assist was working OK for a couple of days, then yesterday I charged my phone in the morning. Didn't touch it at all till the evening, when I noticed the battery is at ~60-70%. Moto Assist got ~85% of that, even though I've only had the "Sleeping" module active and it was daytime.
Hm, coincidence? Or some weird interference with New Year's Eve? In fact it seems all occurrences of this issue were reported just yesterday... - Well, I'm curious about how it'll behave today.
Best wishes,
Karsten
I'll add to this,mine too refused to work last night, wonder if it will tonight or not,clearly something wrong if we're all having this issue. (UK Tesco 16GB)

My dad's phone got the 4.4.3 update yesterday. All of a sudden, his messaging (Hangouts) stopped working correctly. Sometimes, when he tried to send a text, Hangouts would just crash. He could still receive messages without a problem, but he was unable to send them. I thought it might just have something to with the bad weather/power outages because my Nexus 5 was having some problems sending messages (but my Hangouts wasn't crashing). But more recently, I have not had any problems, but now Hangouts crashes every time without fail on his Moto G. I tried using different SMS apps, but they all crashed when I tried to send messages, too (but receiving is fine). I've also restarted the phone, toggled airplane mode, removed and replaced the SIM, reverted Hangouts to its original, and quick booted and erased the phone's cache all to no avail. Could this problem have been caused by the update? Is the phone crapping out? Is it a carrier problem? Something else? Advice?

Same here with wife's phone. She makes me search for a fix. Who is your carrier? Hers is Straight talk. She just can't send text. Picture sending/receiving and incoming texts work ok.
At least we're not the only ones! Ours is T-Mobile. I haven't tried sending data messages. I'll have to try...
Update: MMS works fine. Just sent a picture to myself.

for all, have you try to update your hangouts after updating to 4.3.3 ?
Hangouts updated and crashing as well. I tried several different messaging apps with the same result

Are you guys sure the Messaging app was fully disabled after the update? Also, the only app default for Hangouts is to be set as the default messenger. Perhaps going into settings and setting it as the default messenger would do the same as reset app preferences without resetting all your other defaults.
It didn't make any difference for me. I couldn't send text messages no matter what app was default.

After messing with this some more, it seems the issue is if you disable the Messaging app, this behavior exists. If you keep it enabled, then Hangouts will work just fine. This is a pretty bad bug imho.

Im on 4.4.4 and can even seem to disable the messaging app on my moto g.
So this issue exist on the Moto X 4.4.4. Had Messenger disabled while on 4.4.2 and used Hangouts (past and current version) with no problems. After update to 4.4.4 problem started, but solved with the known solution of re-enabling/re-installing the Messenger app. The problem also exists if Messenger is uninstalled.
My question is does anyone know what is causing this issue? Is it a change in the Messenger app, Hangouts (unlikely), or the core OS (seems most likely to me).
Just curious more than anything, but I would like to remove the Messenger app if possible.
