Hi! I own a Mate 8 and like many others, have this big problem with notifications, especially with emails.
After having tried several firmwares, nothing has changed.
True, the phone has a large autonomy, but .... Who wants a device that lasts 48 hours on, if not fulfill its basic mission?
This I discovered, is not my discovery.
I think I have read all the threads in XDA concerning the issue, and I see that we are all lost in the fog.
Someone (I apologize because I do not remember the thread, or the owner) suggested that with a simple adb command, you could disable Doze, and then, all notifications would arrive immediately.
And it is true !
It is true, though not a definitive solution, because when you turn off the device, the solution is again lose ....
But consider that the method is super simple, and I see it as a possible solution until some brilliant mind, the kind that many see in this forum, to develop an app that automatically run at startup, and not to depend on a PC every time you start the phone.
I would like someone else try this, I've done in my device (AL-10 firmware version B168), and is a radical change in functionality.
I work in sales online, and for me it is vital receive emails instantly.
The steps are simple and absolutely reversible:
NO NEED TO BE ROOT FOR THIS
1- Android SDK installed on the PC
2-Enable "USB debugging" in developer Options
2- Connect the device to the PC with the screen off (I'm not sure if relevant)
3- Go to the installation folder of Android sdk, and then enter in the "Platform tools"
4- Button Shift + right mouse button, and then click on: "open command window here"
5- write "adb devices" to verify that the phone has been detected
6- if it has been detected (the serial number of the device should appear on the command screen), and then, write this new command:
adb shell dumpsys deviceidle disable
...then, enter.
Should appear a response such as "idle mode disable" as confirmation.
This command turn off Doze, so the device is "always on alert".
The theory indicates that autonomy should now be affected markedly...
But in my experience it is not so.
As I said, it is a temporary patch... When you turn off the device and turn it on again, these changes are lost (Which also makes reversible)
Maybe someone here, can give us some glimmer of hope with an app that simply run this command automatically (do not know if it is possible without root).
All I can say, based on my experience, is that this works perfectly and do not depend on updates from Huawei ... wich probably never come.
In my case, I never turn off the device except in very unusual conditions. It may depend on this temporary solution until someone give us a hand!
i tryed this solution ( my mate rooted) and app tasker but issues not solved... i don't know why...

My Mate is not root, is a NXT-AL10 untouched, 4Gb ram version, and at least in my case, this patch is perfectly functional.
I have tried several times in an attempt to get it to work after restarting the phone, and that is why I can assure you it works, at least in mine (if not turn off the phone) ..
By the way, just I discovered that if I write:
adb shell dumpsys deviceidle
all applications that Doze have in the whitelist, shown on the screen of the PC.
Perhaps some expert knows how to use this information specific to this model.
i tryed many times, but after 30 minutes all notidication are stopped. whatsapp is in white list, but issues not solved.
I've been running my phone for about a week with the dumpsys command and can confirm it's resolved all of my notification issues and I still get 2 days battery life with a fair amount of us. I've not noticed additional battery drain running this command.
I'm the one who found it, by simply analyzing how Doze worked on the phone.
It would be possible to make an app that automatically runs the command upon startup, of course.
You could use something like this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androguide.universal.init.d&hl=en
But root is necessary to adjust the settings unless you plug in a computer with ADB.
I don't have the phone working anymore (it's bricked) so I can't do much, sorry.
This solution don't work in my case. After a few hours, notifications fail. The only way to get notifications is restart the phone.

exactly, same problem for me
I seen someone install greenify and using the app setting white list to avoid the doze issue. Anyone can confirm? No root needed
What helped for me was going into Apps, then Advanced, then Ignore Battery Optimizations and select the apps you want. They will stay open and you should get notifications.
Do you think there is any possibility to execute the command from the phone itself?
Thx

This is oneof the first steps we all have done.... Nothing the problem still there....and i cant imagine that there is someone with mate 8 that his device hasn't this problem....the most of them just hasn't notice... If you dont use mail app and exchange then is possible not to notice that the notification isn't coming to time
PNF doesn't help?

The phone stopped getting push notifications until after the app is opened (groupme). Any way to fix that?
No one else had experienced this? It's really bad. No notifications from group messaging apps

Go to settings, battery, battery optimization and ensure your concerned app is showing you "don't optimize".
Try this and lemme know
I did that already. I searched and saw that that was supposed to be the solution.....but not working for me
In the same settings there is an advanced optimise (top right ... Button)
Make sure that's not ON

Getting delayed notifications too. Particularly with WhatsApp. Can't work it out.

this device faces network drops, often not recognized if an app wouldn't show an alert like FB messenger.
these drops are mostly responsible for missed pus messages because the device is not ready at the moment the push happens and it will not be repeated every few seconds (delay)
even worse if one is using several devices, of which one is i.e. at home and the other on the road. while a the working device will receive the push notification the OP6 would not ( you can check for network drops where it shows the IP number, it happens on wifi as well as data and both wifi frequencies BTW.)
so in the last case the message will never arrive because it's delivered, (to the working device at home) and hence no more push attempt will happen until next message arrives.
i and others posted this in OP support, as mentioned above, open you network settings and watch the IP number, it will disappar and re-appear.
also you can use FB messenger where you will frequently see an orange bar saying "connectin" intermittently with a green bar saying "connected"
of course i dunno if that happens on EVERY device but at least it happens on MANY including mine.
since i'm always having 2 phones on man i'm receiving all mails and messages on at least on of the two which also illustrates quite well how often a push will reach one of my various other devices but miss the OP6.
Go to OP support and report the issue if you face it, that way they get aware of the full scale of the issue.
Yep, notifications are patchy for me. Sometimes they arrive on time, other times they arrive but silently without triggering the alert sound. Other times they only arrive after waking the phone up.
And yes, I've set to not optimise these apps and turned off advanced optimisation. It's a bug I reckon, hopefully fixed in 5.1.6
Well, somehow it's working...for now. I did a few things. I updated the Groupme app. I think I changed the notifications from urgent to high. Something worked

Yeah I've mine set to urgent also, but no real difference. Simple things at this stage for a company like Oneplus, that should not be an issue
I've been having the same issue. Some apps work fine and some don't give me notifications until I actually open the app and refresh it. One is Power Facebook and the other is my visual voicemail app. It's highly annoying as I use the phone for business too. Disabling then in battery optimizations does nothing.
If you have advanced optimization turned on in Battery settings, it will prevent a lot of apps that need to do things in the background from working. It will definitely affect push notifications. I have it on but I've exempted a bunch of apps I want running.
Oops, n/m, see this was discussed already.
I'm not sure if it was switching the notification from urgent to high that did it but it was the last thing I did before it started working....it did go back to urgent by itself afterwards though...notifications still working now
..guys any other facing this issue? Even after update to pie stable recently.. I get this problem, notifications arrive to every other device except op6. When i unlock the phone only then notification arrives...all battery optimizations are off..
any solutions?
I got the same issue with Threema. None of the mentioned settings worked for me.
Any ideas?
Same problem for me. Super annoying. Is this an oxygen os or android problem? Would installing a custom ROM help?
It's the DOZE feature in android that is causing the delay in receiving notifications. Setting an app to "Don't Optimize" does not help; this used to work on nougat when I was using HTC U11 but this does not work in Oneplus 6 PIE.
Run the command below in ADB to completely disable DOZE.
adb shell dumpsys deviceidle disable
The down side is that it will reset to "enable" after reboot so you will need to run the command, again, after rebooting. To get around this, I use Automagic to execute command "dumpsys deviceidle disable" after reboot. You can use Tasker for this, too.
After disabling DOZE, push notifications are received almost immediately. I often see notification for the same message on both my PC and phone.

Hi,
I am the latest idiot that got a P40 Pro and wants to use google stuff.
I had problems with apps going to sleep and not working any more (ACR, daily cloud backup, even WhatsApp) so I removed powergenie with command adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.huawei.powergenie.
Apps are now running but I don't have any power stats for software in setting - battery.
Is it related to powergenie or other stuff I did during setup?
Is the normal android power management still works or all apps are now running until force manual close ?
Thank you!

I just enable manual launch on the apps I need notifications from and that does the job. Why do u remove power genie?

Even with manual launch, WhatsApp was going to sleep, and the desktop version - web.whatsapp stopped working due to lack of connection with phone.
Is there a way to edit the whitelist of powergenie?

I have never had that issue with whatsapp with any of my Huawei phones including p40. Are u running in power saving mode or something maybe?

Hmmm...
I will restore powergenie and try again, I had problems with that app even with my old phone P20 Pro, Titanium backup and Call Recorder ACR stopped running after a few days if I didn't open the app.
Edit: The second I restored powergenie, battery usage for software started working even with history for apps (the data is still stored somewhere)

If u set to manual launch and allow to run in background, that should do the trick. Make sure u aren't running any sort of power saving mode as well .

I've got used to Huawei and aggressive power management, the first thing I do is set it to manual for mail and other apps that I want to run and receive notification fast, I even pin some apps.
thank for the fast reply!
so here we go .. everything is here .. from whitelisting in doze, disabling powergenie, pinning open apps, battery saving, etc etc .... and after all that, skype lite still drops out at random times and does not receive push notifications ...

did you manage to receive notification by whitelisting those apps?
It seems that the battery usage listed in Settings doesnt even tell you Screen On time or percentage drain.. wow.. new level of crap
I managed to get BatterBatteryStats installed which is working well though did i miss something already in the phone?
Found GSAM on play store. Works well once you give it battery permissions.
But to do so you have to disable oppos permission management, right?

Can't recall so re gsam just installed and that was it lol
Hmmm I use gsam for a long time and needed to grant access to android.permission.BATTERY_STATS manually by adb to get all the stats I wanted but Oppo won't let you do that if you want use the integrated permission management.
I did the ADB thing with gsam. No issue with Oppo stuff. Though I never signed up to the Oppo stuff in the phone

you sure? I would say it's unlikely that this worked for you as long as you have in dev settings: "Disable permission monitoring" not enabled. At least on my device, this ends up in an error as you see in the screenshot:
ahh maybe your right looks familiar.
I'm rooted with Android 10 on my pixel4a. I don't want to upgrade to 11 just yet, but I keep getting the annoying update notices. Is there an app or module I can freeze with titanium to turn off the notices?

An app from Google Play called "Notification off" did the trick for me on my Sony xz2c.

Because i reported it
I posted a similar question in the correct forum with no replies. The Notification Off app in the Play Store hasn't been updated since 2015.
And anyway, not a normal notification...the full screen one that appears overnight every night. There should be a process that can be blocked or turned off on a rooted phone(?), but I can't find it.
Same question. I don't need a daily reminder that my OS is is out of date.
Testing the below on a Marlin with Android 9 & TRWP backup before I actually try on Sunfish with Android 10.
1. Usb debugging on
2. Computer with adb drivers
Open command window in pc and connect your device and run these commands one by one.
Commands are
Adb devices (for checking device is connected)
Adb shell
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.backupconfirm
exit
Done. No more update notification.

Thanks for the tip on the process to look for. I froze it using Titanium Backup and I'll see if that solves it.
EDIT: Freezing that app process does nothing. I froze it and then got another full screen notification a few hours later.
After some trial and error, I think the correct process is Dynamic System Update. I froze that process but I'm still receiving notifications.
I then found that even though the process is disabled in TiBackup, it still has notifications turned on.
Go to Settings/Apps & Notifications
Select see all apps
Top right 3-dots/select show system
Scroll down to Dynamic System Update.
The notification can't be turned off.
I cleared storage and cache for it and restricted battery use.

Could be a Titanium issue..........................no ill effects on the Pixel XL so I removed file with ADB command of pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.backupconfirm on the Pixel 4A..............no update notices overnight..............will report back in a few days to confirm.
Edit: 24 hours I get notice for update............
logcat-entry for that popup seems to be
Code:
START u0 {act=android.settings.SYSTEM_UPDATE_COMPLETE flg=0x10048000 pkg=com.google.android.gms cmp=com.google.android.gms/.update.phone.PopupDialog (has extras)} from uid 10147
on my pixel 4a. sounds a lot like the process described on that other post here, so ..
i’ve gone ahead and disabled that process. fingers crossed.

But if it causes some other problems can that be reversed, and if so how?
I originally had hoped for a Tinatiaum freeze solution so that I could easily reverese it if there any problems, but it doesn't seem that anyone has yet found a program that can be frozen that will eliminate the popups.
I'm beginning to suspect that a lot of Apple OS programers have infiltrated Android and are turing Android into Apple little by little, until one day we'll wake up and find that every one has to ask Steve Job's estate for permission to use their phone.

"pm uninstall -kb -user 0 ..." is not permanent (simply 'disables' the executable) and can be easily reversed. A bit of googling will surface procedures.
Enforcing updates and associated reminders is good security hygiene. No evil intent IMHO.

I'm fine with security updates, but unfortunately, the updates always seem to break something that once worked, so I want to wait until the items that weren't supposed to be broken by new security are fixed, And the "evil" part comes from programmers making aesthetic changes for no reason other than someone thinks "this would be nicer if..."

Definitely not as easy in Android rooting like it once was............actually frank93 in post #11 found the working solution.

There isn't any "com.google.android.gms" or anything similar in my Titanium list. A search in Titanium for "com.google.android.gms" returns two items: "Google Location History 1.0" and "Google Play...33172415" - is that second one the item I need to freeze? After freezing it I get popups saying "iHeart Radio won't work" and "google maps won't work" and "Pixel launcher won't work", etc, sure enough, they don't work after freezing "Google Play...33172415"

Can't help you there in Titanium but the below works with no ill effects.
Adb devices (for checking device is connected)
Adb shell
su
pm disable com.google.android.gms/.update.phone.PopupDialog
exit
Besides Audio mods and other apps that don"t work with Android11........... another reason to stay on Android10 for now.

Despite the block of the update module in TiBa, I got bitten by it anyway. It downloaded and installed (wrong setting in developer options) on a reboot. I never saw anything. It just happened and now I'm stuck on 11.

I too wish to block auto-updates...and I have a few questions for you...
1) This thread seem to indicate that you need to disable the package " pm disable com.google.android.gms/.update.phone.PopupDialog " using ADB and that this package is not visible in TiBa, so did you use ADB, and if not, what did you freeze in TiBa?
2) You also said "(wrong setting in developer options)" - what did you mean by this? I'm asking because I turned that option off in developer settings and I was hoping that would stop the auto-updates.
