If you are using facebook messenger, and the chat bubbles, just close them and it will work If not, than some other app is causing the trouble, so just go to recents and close all apps.

Push notifications

Seem to be having issues with apps that use push notifications. Like my email app(nine) or the ESPN app. It seems I get sporadic notifications instead of the constant ones I am suppose to get. I am constantly missing emails because of this. Most of the times I end up opening the email apps and the new emails download instead of being pushed when they are received. Same thing with the ESPN app. I have it to alert me with scores of certain teams that I follow. However I don't get anything until I open the app. Once the app has been open then I start getting the score notifications for about a hour and then again nothing. It is almost as if the apps are not being allowed to operate in the background.
Nevermind. Fixed the issue.
What was the fix? Having the same problem.

Go into Mobile Manager. Swipe left at the bottom and select Permissions. Then select Auto-start Manager. From here you need to toggle the issue apps to "allow". My educated guess is this is keeping the apps from opening to send the needed notifications. That is why everything back logged drops when you manually open the app. Wondering if there will be any ill sided affects if I disable mobile manager.

Disable Huawei permission checks...

Having an annoyance with one app that auto toggle WiFi off and on, Everytime it wants to do its think I seem to get some annoying Huawei pop up asking if I should allow with no option to remember the choice. Granted full permissions for the app under settings-permissions but it continues. Honestly, don't need Huawei's app bothering me about permissions, Android let's me control that just fine. Anyone know how to disable this?

Hi,
I think you should disable wifi+ to remove the auto-toggle (settings->WiFi->Wi-Fi+->off)

Possible Solution For Notifications

I think that the notifications that don't appear when screen off is caused by the restricted background data that lenovo has pre-checked. Just untick the option ​shown in the picture to allow background data for the application you want. Tell me if this will work for you

Also turn off battery optimization for this app.
Settings->power management->battery optimization and then choose all apps instead of not optimized, find the app you want and disable battery optimization

I have done this also :crying:. Upon re-opening Messenger while on data, it shows 'Waiting for Network' then 'Connected' and all the notifications come through. Ive also tried disabling Doze to no avail. Notifications work fine when on Wifi so not sure what the problem is, looks like a software design problem made by Lenovo. I might try Lineage in the future.
I find that when I return home and phone gets WiFi while pulling in drive I suddenly get Gmail notifications so seems mine is same.
The only way to fix notifications I've found that actually works is to disable doze via adb shell.
Sadly this fix needs to be reapplied every time you restart the phone making it a bandaid for a gunshot wound.
It feels like the OnePlus 3 all over again...
Install this app...
This app should work very well...

Try this.

Not receiving push notifications for messenger and other apps

For a few week I've not been receiving push notifications for Messenger and a couple of other apps, I've tried clearing cache, reinstalling, upgraded to beta firmware, factory reset to normal firmware, checked every power saving and notification settings I can find and I'm getting no where. I have avast and malwarebytes installed but have tried 24 hours without them.
I've noticed if I wake the phone and see the icon in the edge panel or from the app tray the app seems to wake and sometimes pushes through notifications. Very frustrating!
Anyone got any ideas?

Check the notification setting inside the apps
& check which apps can read and control your notifications in Notifications Access Setting
:good:
I have the exact same problem and none of these settings helped me. Do you think that it is an app-related problem?

In order to get app notifications , you must give app permissions to auto start. Otherwise you only will get notifications when app running .

I found that in notifications access setting, 'notification' was disabled, I've allowed this and will see how I get on tomorrow.
Today I had 50 outlook email notifications come through all at once... Phone blew up like Beyonce!
It's crazy this is happening, really puts me off the S8 plus.
Thanks for the help

Where can I find the auto start settings? Google is not fruitful on this one
Cheers!
Still not getting notifications for messenger. Does anyone know where the setting to allow messenger to auto start is.
I'm convinced it's some sort of aggressive power management feature.

Check the screen shots .
If didn't understand then reinstall the app and give all access include auto run tick when system ask.

I found the area where permissions are granted. Settings>Apps> {Appname}> scroll down to "Permissions" > tap the three dots at top right corner> tap "All permissions". This gets me to an area where it shows all of the available permissions to assign the this app. I do not see an "autostart" or anything similar.

Huawei p30 messenger notification problems

Hi guys,
I'm having problems with getting messenger notifications. Sometimes I just don't get them, only after half an hour. It happens when the phone screen is off and I don't use it. However other apps notifications arrive.
And sometimes I get the messenger notifications in wrong order and it's very annoying.
I tried to solve it by setting the app start to manual but it didn't help.
I hope you can help solving this.

whats your app launch settings
for me when i go to app launch and click the blue tab the choices i leave is
auto launch on
secondary launch on
run in background on
then i press ok.
Thanks
I can recommend keeping the app you've got issues with open in the recents window. Swipe them down to "lock" them which should make sure they aren't automatically closed. That fixed my issues with WhatsApp without changing any other options.
Okay
Thanks
