Hardtime with WhatsApp notifications!!!! - General Questions and Answers

Dear users/developers,
I have a hard time using Whatsapp because of delayed notifications.
Before making this thread i have done a ton of research.
For example i deleted WhatsApp data many times, put WhatsApp in not optimized, uninstalled GMS Doze, i use PNF root for changing heartbeat time, i disabled AdAway, changed many ROMs (currently on Syberia).
Even when WhatsApp is open and phone is locked notification are delayed (So weird).
This is actually my last option starting this thread hopefully with some help to fix this issue.

I had this issue but it was related to wifi connection slowing down or even disconnecting when the phone was locked with screen off. My notificationsn would only appear after I turned the screen on.

Well actually on wifi and data i have the same problem.. i have checked my wife and i have seen that the heartbeat time is set to 26min but i cant change this settings on wifi.
Im using BBS for battery stats and in 13 hours WhatsApp got 24 wake ups. Im considering also changing the carrier of my sim.
How did you solved this with wifi ?

There was a setting to keep wi fi always on while the screen was off. I tried but I can't find it anymore with Oreo, this might be something that is not allowing the sync in background, do you experience this with any other app?
You could test if you put the phone to download something and turn the screen off for a while, see if the download slow down, stop or finish.

Yeah i just checked that out and no, wifi keeps running when phone is locked.
And actually it's only WhatsApp that i have problems with. Im using messenger, telegram and Tapatalk and im receiving all the notifications of it.
Im looking also for a ROM were i can set notifications to high priority.
I don't even remember when this started because i was done with it.

S6 sinds 5.1.1 not always active in sleep mode?

Since upgrading my S6 to 5.1.1 my S6 seems to put apps to sleep with screen off, but not always.
So twitter for example is still receiving updates.
But Whatsapp not always, so sometimes need to open the app before it receives its messages.
Same goes for the web app from whatsapp, when the phone goes to sleep after 1 min +/-'s the app goes to sleep and the web app loses its connection.
This was never the case before the upgrade and is insanely annoying.
The keep wifi alive while asleep is on....
Tried the option under #*011* for the wifi power management, but does not seem to fix it.
As twitter still works it also seems to be something else?
Anyone know this problem and better yet how to fix it?
Go to recovery mode and wipe cache.
I have the exact same issue. My messages wont load untill i wake up / unlock the phones.
It can be anything.
Whats app
LIne messages
Kakao messages
nothing loads unless i unlock the phone.
I am selling my s6 tomorrwo for G4. This is my second S6 that isnt working properly. First one had simcard issue. This one has wifi issue.
To me it seems like its a wifi issue. Try if you face the same issue when on Data network ?
Sigh...
Did that, did not fix it.

Notifications coming in at the same time.

So I just got the phone a few days ago and I've started to notice some strange happenings. Whenever I get notifications for my apps or messages they always come at the same time. Say I have a text message come in, it will then push facebook or something like that and show messages that I have from the messenger app. Is this normal behavior?
@Demonlinx This has been happening since the first day for me too. I've noticed this only happens when I'm on WiFi, if I'm on data I get my push notifications the moment they happen (all except Google hangouts for some odd reason). I don't have the Facebook app installed but this is a constant annoyance I've been dealing with for a while now, it seems as if when the screen is off its not pulling in data when connected to WiFi, but as soon as I get a text message or turn the screen on my notifications come rushing in all at the same time. Are you on WiFi too when you notice this happening? Or is it all the time?
@elpindian Ok, so I noticed that this happens only when I'm on WiFi as well.. Although it seems intermittent because I've been getting other notifications via a wifi connection, i.e Twitter, Snapchat, etc.. So I'm not sure what is causing this issue. I'll keep trying to mess around with it and see what I come up with.. Are you stock? Do you have connection optimizer turned on? Mine is off. Tl;Dr I only notice this happening sometimes and it only happens (so far) on WiFi.
edit: I found that if I enable WiFi and Mobile Data at the same time it seems to eliminate this issue, I'm trying to test using just WiFi and seeing if the problem still exists.

Try a data reset by dialing ##72786#
@Demonlinx I am stock with no plans on rooting until there is a fully functional AOSP rom out there for our device. I have disabled connection optimizer as well, but haven't turned data off even while on WiFi. Is there a specific setting to do this besides the disabling data option? I never turn my data off since I have unlimited, does connecting to WiFi automatically turn off data? Because I know if I did turn it off I wouldn't be able to receive MMS and I definitely still get all my MMS with no problems.. Snapchat and twitter have delayed notifications when I'm on WiFi but work flawlessly when I'm only on data.
@Soooperstar thanks man but I've been told by a Sprint and Samsung rep before to try that and still I have these issues... Could it maybe be a problem on our router's end? I've noticed that this doesn't happen with every WiFi connection I have; i.e if I'm at my gfs house who has her at&t router vs my Comcast router.. I've also noticed that if my screen is off for more than a couple minutes while connected to WiFi my android wear watch will give me the offline message if I try and interact with it. It's as if the phone stops any internet connection while it's sleeping, somewhat annoying because I can't just walk around the house and expect to receive notifications on my wearable without waking up the phone (phone calls and texts excluded).

Could be..... Kinda hard to troubleshoot. The only one I have a problem with is Tapatalk and XDA app. I think that one may be related
@Soooperstar it's weird, I think it has something to do with the phones deep sleep issues and Sammy has yet to figure out all the bugs. I love the build of this phone but can't stand the software. I'm ready to move on to a Nexus device when the next one releases.

SHV-E300S WiFi turning off when idle

Hey guys, so I'm having this problem with my SHV-E300S , even putting the wifi config to always in sleep mode and using the code #*0011 to set off the wifi power saving, it still not working, so after around 15 minutes idle i cannot receive any notifications from messangers apps or email, i will receive that just when i unlock the phone and wait for a few seconds.
I'm using not the kit kat 4.4.2, but i tried the official lolipop 5.0.1 with no progress, also tried to install the cyanogenmod but i received status 0 error from recovery when i tried to flash the rom so cannot say if it would solve the problem.
I would be very glad if someone could help with that, the cellphone is useless for me since i just use that for messenger.
thanks
tried artware but the problem got worst, since i coudnt even turn on the wifi
instaled official lastest version available lolipop and the problema persists
after around 30 minutes the phone enter in sleep mode, wifi dont respond

You can do some searching for how to use wakelocks to either apply or deny wakelocks, this can be used for many of your apps and features to control when and how they are active. There are apps in the playstore that let you manage wakelocks.

Thanks for your reply, i'm testing now some apps to check if it solve the problem
Hi, i tried the cpu awake app, wifi keep alive and PNF app.
It's pretty hard to say that works completly since sometimes i receive, sometimes I receive with delay and sometimes dont Receive at all
I cannot think about what is causing the issue but i wonder if theres some clean ROM for this phone (without carrier stuff), original but without carrier software to try, or some another solution.
anyway, thanks for the help.

Wifi turning itself off

I have just bought the 6gb 128GB version in grey and am really liking it apart from one issue I cannot seem to resolve. When the phone is in standby mode it turns the wifi off. I have no battery optimization apps running, and I have wifi scanning enabled when the phone is in standby.
Does anyone know what can be causing this? It is starting to become very frustrating when I am streaming from Sonos and it cuts out after 3 minutes. I am on 7.1.1 and the phone is unrooted. I have searched but cannot find anything apparent. I have also cleaned the phones cache in recovery, didn't help.
I think I also have this issue. I've set my phone to do some backups to my drobo while I sleep but they never seem to finish. I didn't have this issue on my Galaxy S7.
Did a system restore in recovery. Seems to have sorted it. Must have been some bogus app I installed.
Go to settings - wifi - wifi settings and change keep wifi on while sleep to always

This seems to be the default setting already

Android 10 - wifi sleeping while screen locked

Hi guys!
I did a lot of googling and searching through XDA, but never found a solution for my problem, so I might as well try it here.
Recently I updated my Sony Xperia X Compact to AOSP 10. Now when I am connected to wifi (and it does NOT matter whether it is 2.4/5GHz or IPv4/IPv6, I tried everything) and my screen is locked, my system seems to put the wifi connection into some kind of battery saving mode. Notifications then will hardly come through. You can also see this in WhatsApp Web - every two minutes or so, "Phone not connected" will show up, and messages take up to 2 or 3 mins to get delivered. Then I can use Whatsapp Web normally for 30 secs, after which my phone seems to disconnect again. If I unlock my screen, WhatsApp Web will immediately (!) start working normally again, also missing notifications (e.g. Signal) will then come through.
While of course this might be a ROM bug, I am at least 100% sure it IS ROM-related, as I used exactly the same phone with exactly the same router without any problems while on Android 9 LineageOS.
Another interesting thing - if I charge my phone, during charging WhatsApp Web works completely without problems. The moment i UNPLUG the phone, wifi gets somewhat throttled agian.
Does anybody know a working solution for this? I do not have the option "Disable wifi sleep" or something similar - i believe Google has dropped this option somewhere around Pie.
Thanks in advance!

AFAIK there are kind of wifi energy saving options on some devices. But IDK if you can enable or disable wifi when phone is locked
