My push notifications from thirdparty apps and live tiles stop working very regularyly which is a shame since the platform heavily depends on this.
It fails to open a channel etc.
Is microsoft fixing this bug in the os? Since now they say yeah just do a factory rest and it should be fine. But i dont wat to lose my settings.
And a restart temporarely fixes it but after an hour or so its terrible again.
or are the ms servers just over crowded already? I dont like apple but my dads iphone just kept working while mine stopped receiving the toasts

Toasts and tile updates come from the app developers servers, so depending on the platform they use there may be some down time. The Beezz twitter client occasionally stops working, but it's a free app and not ad supported so we should be lucky it has toasts and tile notifications at all.

not really since tested with the same apps at the same time. Its probably because it goes to the ms servers and fails to deliver timely. Also the unable to open a channel is not related to their servers i believe? Its related to a channel not able to open on the ms servers. Downtime should probably be equal when using the same apps on ios and wp7 sending out to each other, the messages do get delivered in app just no or really really delayed notifications. Like 20 minutes and then it just works normal for a while.. Then stops again. Other than this i really like the platform.
So i wonder does anybody else experience trouble? And which is the program you use which seems to be stable all times?
I'm experiencing the same troubles on my omnia 7.
Following programs do have some problems:
-Fim: Unable to open the channel - push notifications don't work anymore.
-TextMe: Push Notifications sometimes work - but with a delay of approx. 20 minutes
Following programs don't have any problems:
-Hotmail
-Messenger by Miyo
----------------------------------------
This is really annoying - since a "usual" restart of the device doesn't help, i think i will have to do a hard reset (i wonder if this will help at all). But i don't want to lose all my settings, installed applications, short messages etc. So this really is a PITA.

hardreset, would that really help? I think it wont really help. I have the same phone same apps and same problems also with tigertext send to wp7 and notes to tile.
i dont have the time and or want to hardreset. It might be a driver thing with the 3g etc. If nobody with other phones is experiencing this. I think hardreset changes nothig and will return to same behaviour. I will hardreset when the update comes or see if this will fix it.
20 Minutes is just strange conpared to instant on iphone and happens a lot
Pff
Did a hardreset. Tested the push again, ait a damn thing changed besides that I lost all my settings and stuff. Its just not working right. And probably a samsung driver or a ms server/os issue....
Does nobody else experience push notification downtime? Or delays? It's just not the way it should work. IM apps and Text replacement apps can never work properly in the background with these delays...
@Marvin_S which apps, specifically are you having trouble with? It could very well be that the developers servers have been down or slow.
I haven't had any Live Tile problems that couldn't directly be traced back to either the app dev's server or the way they've implemented notifications. Not on my Omnia 7 nor the HD2. Afaik, and I'm pretty sure I'd have heard about it - the wife's Omnia7 is doing just fine also. Have you tried flashing the new updated ROM? That seemed to fix a bunch of data issues.
Oh, as for the 20 minute thing, I've never seen this. Beezz for example notifies me (via toasts) in about a second or so.
Beezz has never worked for me. I always get an error whenever I try to enable push. The same happens for GReadie. I get a fail to open channel error. The weatherbug app also stopped working.
Right now my HTC hub live tile works. Its the only 3rd party live tile app I use.

Well I seem to be running the latest version pre-installed by samsung... i asked in the omnia7 forum what kind of rom I was running.
Well the thing is, it builds up all the notifications and than releases them all after each other 20 minutes later.
Basically these apps: Textme and tigertext (which I tried later to see if it could replace textme, very kind and responsive developers btw)
Also send to wp7, which often than comes up with the failed to open channel stuff.
If this rom should rely fix it, then I will just reflash it eve though its exactly the same rom... I think it has something to do with losing 3g+ signal, or wifi drops.
I'm testing the reliablility heavily since I such problems by sending constant test messages to myself (or to the echo server) the messages are received fine, but the toast is so unreliable.
Can you maybe type the versions of your firmware so I can compare it with mine? Because its for sure not an app problem since the messages all come later from diffrent apps. My test flow is like this: Open app, send message, close, send message with the second app, close and than wait. If it takes to long, open app again, resend. Sometimes it works quite right for a while, than teribly bad.
And note that I'm from a crowded area with lots of cellphone towers and have also good wifi coverage in the places I tested it. Same apps on the iphone work without problems, I compared side by side as well.
So it might just be my omnia, thats why I would like to hear which versions you are running. Since hardreset did not change a thing, I'm starting to believe its or a driver problem or ms-servers are overcrowded. I would like to try beez and see if its diffrent, however I dont havee twitter and i guess its required.
I don't think the newer ROM from Samsung fixes anything, because i installed it. Version 2424.10.11.1
but perhaps the region affects this problem, e.g. North-American Azure-Servers work fine while European Servers are struggling.
I personally have massive problems with push notifications since monday or so, and it's really starting to pi** me off!
Hard resetting idny going to fix anything permenitly because it is not the phone it is the apps just gotta wait for and update to fix

Weird. I'm using Beezz, SendToWP7, uController, eBay, Weatherbug and probably a few others using toast and/or live tile notification. Beezz server seems to go down every so often, but both uController and SendToWP7 notifies me real quick.
I'm running the latest Omnia 7 ROM as people said it was slightly faster and had a better data connection - that said, I was entirely happy with the phone even before updating.
I did a hard reset/reinstall of my apps and such, I'm still having intermittent push problems with some apps, and with others the push won't work at all. I will say that it seems to be the same apps having the same problems, and the ones that always have worked (weather bug) still work.
I'm thinking (hoping, praying!) this is a problem simply because of the infancy of the OS...I remember the first iphone, which I bought on day one, had all sorts of problems and "gaps" in technology

oKe im running the latest rom since the beginning. Created fake twitter account sended a ton of messages. Crap as hell, very unreliable and today i was not able to load fb app data on 3g full bars. So it can be a phone problem on drivers with data over 3g, while 3g+ works fine. Probably euopean servers are overloaded than. Does changing my location from USA based (im dutch) To germany change the servers as well? Bc germany is much closer thus more reliable?

this is not the case, read my post. Has nothing to do with the apps since ALL apps behave like this, it has nothing to do with the apps itself but probably slow ms servers. So no this is really an os or server or device firmware problem and not an app. Since all notifications come at the same time all after eachother highly delayed.
Apps have own servers they Sony go threw ms os is not mad for apparently apparently are made for os if apparently no work on os they need update

its not the problem of the apps! Since all apps fail at the same time to update. This is no coincidence, only a restart or waiting will solve this and than all notifications not yet delivered by multiple apps come at once! Now tell me how this is an app poblem,its the phone who is not able to receive the push even on wifi. The apps do deliver, but there is a huge delay even with beez which i checked with fake twiter account.
Every once in a while the phone just fails to receive any data based push notifications! All of them. While i do have wifi and or 3g. On 3g+ it seems to be more stable.
This could be europe related or omnia related. And narrowing this down will help dtermine the issue, since the apps are not the problem. These work fine for the others...

It is neither Europe or Omnia related as I'm using the 16GB Omnia7 in Europe (slightly north of you) at the moment without fail.
If it really is all apps, I would suggest there is a problem with your data connection - are you able to browse the web properly and without pages having to reload or taking a long time to open? If not, make sure you are indeed within range of, either, 3G/HSDPA or WiFi - if you are, and it works fine on another phone/laptop I would say you have a hardware fault and need to take the device back for a replacement.
Several things to be aware of with live tiles and notifications.
I am a developer of a few apps and offer push notification and live tile updates i have done alot of testing and know the ins and outs of this..
1st there is a such thing of the phone not being able to "open a notification channel" and Hard Reset is the only way to correct this.
2nd it is possable that the app developer side to also be the problem not sending because of their service going down server problems etc.
3rd when your batt. get to be less than 1/4 percent the notification service shuts down on the phone and you will not recieve updates. once the batt is above the 1/4 percent the service will then start working again.
4th sometimes the push service is delayed due to MS.
Hope this helps to better understand.

TV Show Alert (uses Push Notification)

I'm in a bit of a pickle. At some point in the last week I did something or put something on my phone that's now occupying my camera and preventing me from recording anything. Pictures still work. Whether this means something is recording, I don't know. I disabled the camera with another app, but that's no solution.
I'm not rooted. I need an app that can log at some level what apps are using my camera so that I can uninstall the offending app. My wifi also recently started disabling itself during use, and I can't figure that out either. If you know of something that can inform me on both problems, please do pass that my way. I've been unsuccessful on my end so far in my search.
I just don't have enough information to troubleshoot these issues, the only viable option I have atm is a factory reset, and that's not a solution, it's just a shortcut.

The same thing happened to me, Turned out Google Now was causing the problem however It's been resolved now for me as i have it enabled again
Allowing "Google Now" voice detection "From Any Screen" seems to be the culprit. Set "From Any Screen" to off to take videos.

It doesn't seem to have been fixed for me yet. I just verified that's the cause, that's a relief. I really like that feature, how unfortunate.
My wifi hasn't been disabling itself today, but how would I troubleshoot it when it does? It's a really annoying problem, I don't tend to use data.

I'm not entirely sure what's causing your WiFi problem, However to see if you can recover the Google now feature make sure your device is up-to-date and your app is up-to-date, Have you tried Rebooting the device :/ Really Not sure on the Wi-Fi buddy

Thank you, I'll post a separate thread if it reappears. My phone locks itself whenever my wifi is disabled or I'm disconnected from my home network, so it's quite annoying. Much thanks for everyone's help.
Hello guys. I have noticed a strange issue and was wondering if anyone else is experiencing anything similar. I noticed that when I don't use my phone for a while it seems to stop syncing as hangouts messages aren't notifying me (unless I force the app to refresh) also youtube videos tell me I lose connection (in the app) facebook feed doesn't always load when I scroll to the bottom, etc etc.
I was wondering if this is some sort of battery saver feature or some setting that interrupts the connection after certain amount of inactivity with the device.
I have seen the other post about wifi but I seem to be fine when I run my speed test (almost identical speeds to my pc which is running a wired connection)..
Any help is appreciated
There are known issues with the notifications not arriving in "real-time". However, it seems like this problem is only for Miui-based ROMs and not CM/Mokee, so maybe you should try out that.

thing is it seems to be occuring usually when the screen is off for a while though.. or in general when the device is idle.. I am wondering if it is a matter of a battery saving function in a setting somewhere, like a deep sleep/wakelock thing
As for the CM build, I wouldn't touch it at this point in time its SUPER with the few issues stated at the current unnoficial build
(Flashlight not working.
FM(probably remove this in the future).
some problem with CDMA2000.(You need to change prefered network type at first boot or your phone will be no signal)
WiFi mac issue.)
I wonder if anyone has said anything in the xiaomi forums.. I haven't got around to doing some research in there
Hm.. it might be a battery saving feature. I found this thread at the Xiaomi.eu forums, where they posted a possible solution and some people reported it seems to work for them. Worth giving it a try for sure!

Ok, so trying to use the stock message app with voice. Every time I use it, I have to press microphone, then start talking, I usually just say hey, then wait, it will say network error, I then proceed in using again and it works fine.
Has anyone else run it this problem?
If so, have you found a fix for this.
Now I have never tried with watch in standalone mode to see if that is different.
I get this from time to time too. It's very frustrating to speak a whole text only to get the response of "Network Error". I wish someone would figure this out. This watch is just s few small tweaks from being head and shoulders above any other wearable. The issue is the tweaks required are on basic functionality.

I have downloaded the "Chat Hub" app by Le Hoang It is $2.70 and this seems to fix the problem. It also allows you respond to messages from like facebook messenger and others. I do not however use a bunch of different ones. So not sure how good it really is.

I've had this issue before but i find it hard to believe that a third party program has anything to do with the S-Voice speech to text...
The issue has also happened to me on a pebble and android wear.. I think it has more to do with the connection between the watch and the phone. What phone are you using?

I can honestly say this fixed it. May not be the idea of the app, but has for me anyway.
I'm having a weird issue that I haven't been able to find in any searches: when using Assistant to text (or call) it takes a very long time to process, almost a full minute before it reads the message back and asks if I want to send it. Using Android Auto, it just times out and goes back to playing music. It works just fine if I swipe up from the corners, but Assistant in Maps and Android Auto barely works.
This happens to me when I have bad connection, or when I drive close enough to my gym where it tries to auto connect to the wifi.

Unfortunately connection didn't seem to make a difference. Also, other functions work fine. I can ask questions and get immediate answers, broadcasting to home works fine (which you'd think would be a more intensive task). I've cleared cache/data for the Google app without any change. It's crazy weird and I haven't heard anything else like it.

I'm bone stock. I'm on the beta for the Google app. I'll opt out of that and see if it makes a different. I also wonder if it's a server-side issue that's affecting so few people they don't really know it's happening. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
