Problem with auto-sync / push (Whatsapp, GTalk, Mail...) - Optimus One, P500, V General

I'm the only one who have problems with autosync/push on these services? Whatsapp messages arrives me 30 minutes late
On my other friends' androids works fine,
It's because the phone? On every rom i've tried...

Up
-ten chars-

Does the problem occur via data or wifi? Because at first I had similar trouble, I've got no data plan and my wifi was set to switch to data while the phone is in sleep. So I've only received my notification the moment I wake the phone. Put the wifi mode to never sleep and problem solve.
I hope that could help you. Otherwise tel us more.

I don't have data plan, but I have wifi sleep policy to Never, yes.

Another problem I use to have was the router. I've got a DLink that as micro shutter. So everytimes I woke the phone it disconnected and reconnected because it as lost connection during sleep mode. It happened everytimes the phone was in sleep for more than 5 min.
Try this, while using your phone, send you an email or gtalk message from another devices or pc. I've registered another account to do my test. If it work well, than let the phone on standby for at least 10 min and try sending an email....that way you'll see if you lost connection during sleep mode.
I've changed my router and never encounter the problem again. good luck!

It's not that (I think) because I tried that many times and on standby notifications arrives, yeah, but late
Sometimes late, sometimes fine. Most late. It's like phone sync (push) turns off and then turns on and arrives all notifications.

Push Notifications Don't Work With Screen Off (Gmail, Talk, Voice, etc.)

Recently I disabled the best wi-fi performance option (I enabled it on accident while messing around with settings on launch day) which obviously increased my battery life dramatically by actually allowing my phone to go into deep sleep. But now I hit a new issue.
Before I go on, I want to state that I DID apply the SmartSync fix and that my data IS working while my phone is in deep sleep.
New emails I receive with Gmail app do not get pushed to my phone as they should. They are anywhere from 5-15 minutes late if they even show up at all. If I happen to turn my screen on, automatically I get the notification of new emails.
Is anyone else having this issue with Gmail or any other app? I find it strange that while I have data (wi-fi/3g) enabled and working with the screen off, emails still come in delayed.
Any help would be appreciated. I have searched around and most of the answers I came up with (regarding HTC devices like the One X) had to do with SmartSync messing up the connection or someone not having the notifications enabled. I'm at a loss 0.0
EDIT: I tested this with Google Talk had my main account up in Gmail and in another browser windows my other Gmail account. Added both of them, talked to my self, if my device screen was off, I would either get it 1-2 minutes late or not at all. Once I turned my screen back on, the notifications poured in. I also tried the same scenario with my main Gmail account logged off (in case it was canceling out the messages to my phone, which it wasn't) and I had the same outcome. I edited the title to reflect that this isn't a Gmail only issue.
EDIT 2: Did more tests, I tried turning Wi-Fi off completely and running the same tests as above to my surprise everything worked as expected. I initially thought it might be because of my 5Ghz Wi-Fi band, so I tried it all again on my 2.4Ghz channel -- had the same problems as before. Somehow the issue pertains to your screen being off and Wi-Fi being on.
EDIT 3: I just tried streaming Pandora and shutting the screen off (maybe WiFi WAS somehow shutting off) Pandora kept playing no problem. I messaged myself on Talk, got the notification right away. This is very bizarre 0.0 But it might confirm this only happens when the phone is in deep sleep mode... Still doesn't answer why it doesn't happen on 3G or why notifications sometimes still come through.
EDIT 4: Still no fix but I have discovered that for some reason if the screen is off ANY data doesn't go through. Let me explain better:
If I have some thing like Pandora running then it will continue to run once I shut my screen off. But if WiFi isn't being used and I turn my screen off and then lets say I try to connect to it with Cerberus or ping it from my PC or something it will not even though the router reports it as connected.
Very strange behavior.
This is interesting...maybe the wifi performance toggle is associated to the smartsync, and all?.....I will say that with it unchecked I am getting some really really good battery life here compared to previous phones....but I also notice at times when emails are not pushed till I wake the screen during the day....Also the fact my wifi doesn't automatically reconnect to my house when I get back from work till I wake the screen...little things like that...
Havent messed with the best performance setting but will try it today now...

Try installing this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.logicvoid.powersaversettings&hl=en and unchecking "put data connection to sleep." It may not solve the issue but its worth a shot.

Have it, and it is unchecked. That's the weird thing, wi fi doesn't actually turn all the way off because SOMETIMES I do get the push notifications (late, however).

what is the smart sync fix?
When I installed this app, my cpu reduction and frame rate reduction was enabled. Does that mean this is standard with this phone. Does using this app to disable those setting improve the performance?
Issue continued overnight, tried various other things and nothing seems to fix it. I want to get my notifications but I don't want to destroy my battery life xD is anyone else having this issue?

It's definitely not a hardware problem because if that was the case the phone wouldn't work with wi fi almost at all. My wi-fi connection is rock solid even when the screen is off, just for some reason it won't notify I have the messages until the screen gets turned on.
I did some tests on my gf's stock phone and she's having the same issues, I told her to do some tests on her parents wi-fi when she goes there. I wonder if sgt slaughter has any news.
Btw if you definitely need them on time and need to be on wi fi but don't care about battery life that much just enable best wi fi performance.

Actually more like a Smart Sync break ... The built in settings/app put your data connections to sleep when your phone goes to deep sleep; this is done to save battery when phone not in use for extended period.
Some folks hate losing the data connections so a flashable "fix" is available for the "problem" ... Look around; you'll find it

its a sense problem, there's a thread in the one x forums on how to fix it. I'll post when I get home if I can find it. it shuts down to a 'power save' mode after a while plus after midnight or 11 or something.
Just wanted to update that I installed a custom rom that contains the WiFi fix mentioned and although my WiFi doesn't seem to drop how it did before (at least after one day) my notifications are anywhere between 4-10 minutes late on average through WiFi. This seems to be across the board for Exchange email, Gmail & Google Voice.

Yes my setup also had the wi-fi fix, I can even see my phone connected to the router when the screen is off, the connection is strong.
I had a suspicion it was probably the basic transfer rate of the browser and for some reason I could not adjust this on my fancy 100 dollar router with dd-wrt flashed onto it so I set up a repeater with my older router on stock settings. It seems like the notifications are coming through better now (albeit not instantly) but at least I don't have to turn my screen on every time. It might be a placebo effect or just luck (because at times it does work even with my other router).
EDIT: Ignore the italicized sentence. It was just a stroke of luck, the problem came back.
I'm out of ideas at this point xD
I am having a similar issue as well.
I am rooted and running Fresh Evo LTE 5.1.1 which has the "Disabled SmartSync deep sleep mode" already installed. I also leave my WiFi off (for the same reason as the OP outlines - messages are just plain not arriving or if they do it's after I turn the screen on).
I use gtalk as my primary form of communication on my phone and what seems to be happening is messages from my two closest friends are never arriving. It's hit or miss but seems to be ~45mins after my screen turns off that they send a message and I never get it. One is on Sprint on my family plan and the other is on Verizon. The weird thing is that if I look in my gmail > conversations the messages aren't there either.
I haven't been able to verify any SMS messages that I haven't received but I have noticed that my email notifications seemed a bit wonky but this issue may be fixed with changing my "push" hours (which is retarded to have factory set to only push email between 8am - 8pm).
Question for the smart kids in the class: When does the phone reach "deep sleep"? Is it around ~45mins after the screen turns off?

I also have the dual core mod which I BELIEVE sets my deep sleep right away which is probably why I have the problem more often than you do. One question just so we can start gathering facts large scale, if you're on 3G do you have the problem still? What if you turn 'best wi-fi performance'?

Correct - I have this problem on 3G. I run on only 3G because the problem is more prevalent on WiFi, but still very common on only 3G.
Currently I have "best wifi performance" turned off. Do you want me to test with it on or off?

On. When I turn it on it pretty much eliminates the issue, it acts just like 3G. But for me 3G is almost perfect (a couple seconds of delay but I can deal with that). Remember though that if you leave it ticked on it will destroy your battery life.
WiFi is on, best WiFi performance is on as well.. I'll run it this way a couple of days and see if I can replicate the problem.
I just wanted to say that I've been having similar issues. I have tried turning on best wifi performance, but I don't think that is helping. For one thing, when I have that turned on, when I wake the phone, the wifi is often times not connected, and it shows 3G. Then it will connect to wifi shortly after I wake the phone. On top of that, I'm still not getting notifications on time. I was notified of an email when I woke the phone that actually came in 10 minutes earlier. Hopefully HTC/Sprint is aware and working on a fix.
Still no fix but I have discovered that for some reason if the screen is off ANY data doesn't go through. Let me explain better:
If I have some thing like Pandora running then it will continue to run once I shut my screen off.

Keep WIFI on during sleep

Please explain me, I just dont understand the settings. What's the difference between 3 options: always, only when plugged in, never? I see that regardless of either option WIFI stays on during sleep. It is clearly seen from statistics. So what's the use of it?
Come on people, I can't believe nobody cares. Did I ask something stupid?

well perhaps no one have seen your post.
anyway, i just saw that feature a while ago, and i think what it means is:
when your phone screen turns off (your phone is asleep because you're not using it), wifi connection gets disconnected -- to conserve battery.
the options are:
always (default) - will keep wifi connection turned on, no matter what
only wen plugged in - well, wifi connection will keep on ONLY when the device is plugged in.
never (increases data usage) - as soon as the device sleeps, it will disconnect from wifi, and possibly conneted to data network, hence the warning.

1. Always on even if screen is off (DS WiFi ON)
2. Only when charging WiFi is still on (DS WiFi ON while connected to USB or AC charger and DS WiFi OFF when disconnected from external power source)
3. Never online while in deep sleep - disconnecting WiFi in Deep Sleep (DS WiFi OFF)

Dear friends. Thank you for your replies but I suspect you didn't get the point. Again, regardless of one of these three settings WiFi is still ON during sleep. Try to set it to "never" (given that global WiFi switch is on of course, thus it should go to sleep along with device), disable your mobile data and run Skype for example. After your phone has fallen asleep you still online in Skype and available to receive calls. You're still on WIFI! It doesn't switch off when phone sleeps!
I know this is an old thread but did you manage to figure this out? This has recently been bugging me too. Thanks!
If wifi doesn't disconnect when it's set to "never", maybe your phone doesn't go to deep sleep properly.
It'd be good if we could read somewhere what this "deep sleep" really is..

I agree! phone may not go in deep sleep even after switching off screen.
And also also this question is really not stupid, but I say google is stupid, that he assume we have a data plan active always. I have wifi at home and office, so am not activating data plan. So I was having the same question/confusion about this option!
Keep wifi on during sleep -> never, so how come it increase data usage?? data means not data transferred through wifi but sim card internet!! Ha ha ha..
Google should clarify it that when phone is connected to wifi, it will not use sim card internet, but if wifi is off and mobile data plan is active, android will use sim card internet.
Also I'd like to add that wifi signal itself is not eating much memory, but in most of case, fb/gmail/google+/twitter etc which are always internet crazy (hungry) will not let your phone asleep. and they eat memory. if wifi is off then we can have two option, 3G and 2G phone internet. 3G signals eat more battery, and 2G internet use more battery because of slow speed.
Background activities option came in picture with invention of smart phone, but always misused by google+ and facebook!!!!
I always hate fb android app, it is too slow in 2G and surfing site in Opera mini is way too fast and handy, anyway that was my taste.
Take a look at green power app as this handles 3g/WiFi connectivity very well. Much better than juice defender

Wifi switching on at 2am

Sorry if posted before but searched on here on googled to no avail.
I'm running cm9 rc2 on my sg2, recently I've got a issue with my wifi. It seems to happen ever other day where at 02:06 the wifi turns on and stays on. Meaning if I've not plugged in to charge it drains the battery.
My phone always gets switched to airplane mode when I sleep and runs juice defender(which in its log states the time of 02:06 that wifi has been switched on by user), I'm also running tasker which checks to make sure other conditions are not running then will place into airplane mode and set cm9 profile to sleep.
Anyone had this issue? Or anyone got any idea a program that can log why wifi has come on by itself?
Thanks

I'm very sure an app or wrong profile settings is responsible for your problem,
This is the cause if the problem:
-the app needs internet around 2am,
-it discovers your phone is in flight mode
-it has a permission or settings to turn on Wi-Fi in the absence of mobile data.
-it then turns in your data.
Just try to track it down
-this app will sure cause a wakelock at that period,
-You can use better battery stats to track the app down
Good luck

No push notifications in sleep mode

Hi everybody.
I just bought a Samsung S3 but I have a problem..
Every time I put my phone in standby, after 5-10 minutes the phone stops getting push notifications (fb, whatsup). I need to turn it on and after that everything's fine..
I tried do update to android revolution hd 17.1 but I still get this problem..
I've already tried to set Wi-Fi to always off, checked all notification setting but to no avail..
Is there a way to receive internet messages without turning on the phone every 5 minutes?

Their is a refresh setting of almost every internet app, try to change those. And check whether Do Not Disturb option in the notification panel is not on.
Hit Thanks if this helped.
Disable smart alert in 'motion' and that should fix it

I even did a hard reset 2 days ago. The only apps I have right now are whatapp and fb messanger
I just tried to uncheck "smart alert" but the problem persists.
Okay wait, when you say 'standby mode', you just mean you're locking it, right?
Assuming that the answer to my previous question is 'yes', tell me, when you turn your screen back on do you get a little notification on the bottom of the screen that says "You are now connected to (whatever your WiFi is called)" ?
He still doesn't receive texts I believe so this is not having the WiFi set to turn off at lock

My issue only occurs when in 3G. It seem the phone disconnects from 3g line when in deep sleep.
I've already tried to use different sims of different operators getting the same behaviour
If I connect my s3 to a wifi spot it always gets notifications instantly

How to stop 3g data from going into deep sleep

Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy A3(2017). This is an unattended phone with teamviewer host installed. I want to get to this phone at any times, but I seem to be unable to connect to phone after about 5-6 hours (or one night sleep).
I have tried install an app called HSPA+ tweaked and this fixes the problem, but it eats up my battery really fast. It sends ping request every 5 sec or so.
Is there any other way to keep my 3g/4g from going into sleep? I have tried different programs that stops phone from sleep, but mobile data (3g/4g) will still sleep after 5-6 hours unattended.
Please any help is appreciated.
Thanx

Did you tried connection stabilizer booster?

Seems able to keep a data connetion alive as you need, by using "Keep Alive" and "Reconnector".
Let us know if works.
EDIT: under the settings tab for "Keep Alive" you can also set the timeout for the ping command: by default is set to 5 seconds but you can increase this value.
This app did not work at all. Active keep alive is suppose to work, but it doesn't. It will stop sending ping quite fast. I tried to set it to ping every minute. After 15 minutes it stopped. No error in logs. active reconnect needs root access. I don't have that now. I tried to root, but I almost bricked my device.
