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.
This seems very strange. my N5, stock and unrooted (5.01) battery was getting bad so I replaced it with a unit from ebay. It looked like a genuine OEM battery but I suspect it wasn't.
And despite all the videos on Youtube etc. saying you can prise the back off the N5 without breaking anything I managed to break two tabs
Anyway after I put it all back my first heartstopping moment was NFC had stopped working, both for charging and for communications. A quick Google search revealed that was because the back had not snapped on properly so the antenna in the back was not contacting the motherboard contacts properly. A quick press of the back the case, a click and all was well,
But now the phone won't do trusted face or locations which it did before. If I go to trusted face and choose improve face matching I receive an error Couldn't start finding your face. And now face unlock never works as well as trusted location (my home).
I can't believe a new battery would affect that but perhaps somebody in these forums might have some knowledge of this problem?
I will wait for 5.1 to see if it fixes the problem, else I guess I have to live with it.
Thanks
Sounds like maybe the front facing camera connection might have been disturbed during battery installation.
If it was me, I'd go into the camera app and see if the front facing camera is working properly.
If not, pull the back off again and check around the camera for anything loose. Verify your antenna connections.
Best of Luck
That one of the first things I tried and the camera is fine. Also GPS works fine so trusted location should work.

As you mentioned, waiting for the 5.1 OTA is going the be the best option short of factory resetting and losing all your data.
Hopefully the OTA will fix it for you when it arrives to your device.
If you prefer not to wait on Google, you could Download the 5.1 OTA and ADB sideload it using the STOCK recovery.
Nexus 5 OTA Help-Desk
Looks like you would need to follow :
Scenario #1
You are completely stock. Unlocked or Locked bootloader. No root permissions.
Continue to Section A
Best of luck
The problem is not from your battery.
Trusted places and faces are broken after the last Google Play update on a number of Nexus devices after they added the "on-body detection."
Some users get it to work, some temporarily, but it is not an issue with your new battery. From the forums i read, some users (not Nexus 5 ) got it to work by turning smart lock off and on, re-doing your locations in google maps, side loading the Google Play Services apk, uninstalling the Google Play Services and reverting it to previous version (mine is grayed out.)
I notice huge battery drain coming from the Google Play Services then I disconnected the GPS and it was no longer draining. I am assuming it's having trouble or a bug where it's searching my location for the Trusted places and draining my battery. This is only an assumption though. Hopefully it will be fixed in a future update. I still have not found a fix for my N5 or N7 2013 yet.
Just so others are not put off ive changed my Battery with no issues and have taken the back off 6 times. No clips broke. It is important to make sure all clips are pushed home and you should gently press the back allover as there are a lot of connections on the back that need to make contacts with the board

I got the OTA update for 5.1 and it's made no difference. Might have to look at some other solutions.

Not sure if that applies to me. I had the problem after I replaced the battery (though it could be coincidental) but before 5.1 where I understand is when on-body detection was first implemented.
I managed to get trusted places to work by walking around my section and getting the phone to recognise a new location which is basically the same as my home but with a different name. That seems to work but I still cannot get face detection, either with unlock or improve matching.
I found the reason for my large battery drain, it was one of my weather apps refreshing through Google play Services. I also did a temp fix for Trust Places like the other user did. I added two places next to my house, close enough to all cross each other. That did the trick for now.
Here's what worked for me
I got a phone call when my Nexus 5 was locked and instantly Trusted Face crashed and gave me a force close message. Here's how I managed to fix it:
1) First, I removed the existing face data and turned off Trusted Face.
2) From Settings --> Apps --> All, I found Trusted Face and Cleared Cache, Data, Force Stopped the app and then disabled & enabled the app.
3) Rebooted the phone holding the power button (Not through the menu)
4) Turned on Trusted Face and registered my face.
5) Then I had coffee, but that's not relevant to the case.
Note: I know some of the above steps are unnecessary and repetitive, but nothing else worked for me.
Good Luck !
Thanks. I tried that and now Trusted Face is working again.

Anybody seem to be having problems with their XZ Premium GPS not working as they should be? Mine is intermittent, sometimes when it works, it works well. But the moment I took a wrong turn and quickly fired up my Google Map navigator, it have problems detecting where I'm at. The Map will show the route, but my location is all over the place. It would pause and stay in that spot for a while, then move me on a lake or off road. I tried "GPS status" app to pin point where I'm at. It doesn't always want to work.
It's getting really annoying, I want it to be reliable when I need it. Lucky I still have my Z3 as backup. So far, seems like the Z3 is the best Sony ever made.
Same problem here...It is hard to start GPS....it shows current position, it lose it. I have to fight for 10 minutes until its stable.
the same issue here. OK after reboot, but problem is back again a after
I had that problem once while downtown... the buildings in that area are all old and packed pretty closely together. It just did not want to update for the life of me. Rebooting it did not seem to help it at all. Especially using the walking directions... forget it. I didn't have time to fuss with a gps app to see if I just wasn't getting any sat connections, but if it happens again I will.
Wow, so it's a known common problem. I hope it's software related so it can be fix by updates. Now I have to open two programs to make sure it always working all the time. Run "GPS Status" app and then open Google Map. Cumbersome.
Dial *#*#7378423#*#*, service test, GPS, Purge Assistance Data
This worked for me!
My use of Purge Assistance Data seemed to help, but I've had a couple of episodes of the problem since then where it didn't help. However, in the past three days the problem has not appeared. I cannot determine what has changed; many apps have updated as usual, and in order to try to determine if this is a hardware problem I ran phone in Safe mode during which problem did not appear. Interestingly (or not) the problem has not occurred during subsequently use of the phone in normal mode. BTW, I'm running the July 1st security update (45.0.A.7.90); the August 1st version has not been offered to me yet by the Software Update).

Very nice. Seem to be working very well. Although I have not put it to full use yet since I'm working at home today. Let's see how it run when I go to work in the office tomorrow.

My XZ premium is 4 weeks old and had problems with the GPS since day one. The GPS was very unreliable taking me in the wrong direction and sometimes delays in giving instructions until after passing my turns. Using google Maps and high accuracy settings. Contacted Sony today and they have asked me to contact google first to make sure there is no software issues from their side before they can look at it. Meanwhile I will download a different navigation app and see if the same problem happens.
I did GPS location test but it seems everytime I attempt it the phone seems to take forever in finding anything so I give up normally after 10 mins.
If any one has found a solution to this problem please let me know (other than changing the phone of course)
My GPS problems went away with 45.0.A.7.120
You're not alone!! I always end up going wrong directions. Compass is very way off.
Sent from my G8142 using XDA-Developers Legacy app
+1 here. it's really frustrating as i use my GPS a lot.
I have the same issue. Second time I sent my phone to Sony. I will update the forum.
Was having this issue as well. Purned GPS Assistance data seemed to help. also did the battery trick. maybe sony should give us an update that will not allow gps to "turn off" when using apps that require it.
i searched on my phone some where on the hidden settings. The Destination was 30mins and about 20miles or so. Said the gps was only on for around 10. Cellular data was used too. This has to be a software issue. why it shuts off gps at times.

Galileo is a new GPS system developed by the EU, like GLONASS is the russian GPS and Beidou the chinese GPS.
And to answer the question, yes, our phone supports Galileo.

Yes, XZP supports Galileo. But it has not been enabled yet. :/
Had the same problem, gps not locking until I purged assistance data and rebooted the device, then it worked fine for about 48 hours until I had to repeat the process.
I completely solved this problem by uninstalling Google play services updates. This was a known issue for other phones some years ago.
Can anyone else confirm this solution?
After downgrading, I get a random error message regarding NFC Capacity.
"Capacity for NFC services full
Not enough capacity to enable the service. Try disabling one or more services."
I've looked this up and a specific bank app was the culprit for many, but not in my case. Happened after just flashing the firmware (the generic one, "D6653_23.0.A.2.93")
Even so, I've tried the fixes I've found and the only one that "works" is downgrading Google Play Services. Of course, this isn't ideal. Besides, even when I install my bank app (NAB) and try to set it up for NFC, it fails with an error that no one at NAB has seen before, so...I feel like there's just an issue with my firmware.
Was just wondering if anyone had any thoughts on fixing this, or perhaps another KitKat firmware I can try? Sick of the battery life of newer firmwares, so I really want to give KK a good try again.
After reading the top comment on this reddit thread about selecting a different tap and pay app (as it defaults to Android Pay even if it's not installed, which may have something to do with it) I stopped getting the nagging message.
The NAB issue remained though. I downloaded an older (and hopefully, safe) version of the app and it works. Two unrelated problems, perhaps. Other than KK being somewhat temperamental, I think. Will continue testing.
Guys,
My phone started to behave abnormally after updating to may 10th google play services. I constantly lose wifi and my phone gets frozen. I gotta retart it in every hour.
Also whenever i send a location it says "google services are updating" i uninstalled services and it updated itself then problems started again.
When the phone get frozen the heat increases like crazy and the battery depletes itself enermously if i dont restart it.
When i lose wifi i cannot see any other wifi networks in the settings. I lose them all and it appears as if there are no wifi networks.
I also wonder if this could be a battery issue? I will reset to factory settings tonight if noone has an answer to this.
Thanks. I am on aura 2.2 rom the latest version
I am also having an issue with google play services. I am using sport tracking apps and they all show google play services updating.
Do you also get random crashes and freezes? I checked many forums, it is very common among huawei users right now. It has affected many phones and you can find many complaints about it. But google provided no support right now.
I also read that factory resetting is not solving the issue. So i am not gonna waste time on that and wait for a new update.
But i can tell for the first time i regret using a huawei phone. Deeply loving it made me cover its faulty updates but i got tired of restarting the phone hourly
I had the exact same issues you described. Google Street View, Uber, and other apps would display 'google services are updating' and not work at all.
Fixed it by leaving the Google Play Services beta testing channel. I'm now running version 12.6.73 (040400) and all's back to normal.
On the other hand my P20 is still on the beta channel 12.6.73 (040408) and no issues.
There's an ongoing thread about an issue which seems what you're talking and is specific to Huawei phones. My problem related to this, is that I can't logon on Chrome... More details in the link below
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=838576#c38
Hi, on my Mate 9 in my Car with Android Auto, the Google Assistent dont run, and says everytime when i activate it: "There is no stable Internet Connection"
I hope google or Huawai will it correct it
Hello,
Same problems with my Mate 9 MHA-L09
It was said that this bug is reported by many people in Google issue tracker. Lots of Google Maps apps such as Uber and Taxify don't work well. It looks like wide range of Huawei devices is severely impacted by latest Play Services update to version 12.6.73. A good news is Google is working on it.
Two temporary solution for an end-user to try:
1. Clear cache & data of Google Play services
2. Go to Setting - App - Google Play Services, disable it to go back factory version.
Restart the phone and go to Google Play Store to do the update on Google Play Services.
Wonder if this is the same "bug" I've been having trouble with. Sometimes, & I can't nail down how it happens, if I wake up the phone, and it could have been screen off for 5 minutes, all night, 20-30 minutes...no pattern, that after waking it up, tap on anything and it might be 10-20 seconds before it does anything. EVERY app is like that. I thought it might have been with Nova launcher, but that doesn't seem to be it, rebooting the phone appears to "fix it". Just dumped cache on play, stopped, uninstalled, rebooted (play store isn't showing any updates, still at 11.xx). I'll just watch it and see how it act.
By me its help Temporary, Everythings run until the next restart of my phone and my smartwatch must reset to
So far, almost 24 hours later, dumping the storage, stopping, "uninstalling" the play services, and going back to the stock one (11.xx) seems to have cured my "lag". Everything is snappy again.
Can someone confirm that with this issue ongoing you can open events in the Calendar app? If possible from an Exchange account...
Currently I open Calendar, select an event, it opens and immediately closes. So Calendar now is also unusable for me What's going on?
Thanks!

Yes it has been fixed (sic!) with version 12.6.85 from version 12.6.73. The big errors have been fixed on software such as Uber and Map programmes. Still awaiting to see if the hardware problems are sorted, (my phone would be hot to the touch to the extent that glue on the phone cover would soften and become pliable).
To summarise.... So far so good.
I can confirm, I have upgraded to 12.6.85 earlier today and so far so good.
Clear now
So far, almost a week into the update, no issues on my end with the phone lagging.
