[Q] Stamina mode doesn't work? - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody,
I am constantly in Stamina mode and put gmail and whatsapp on the whitelist.
I expected that on wifi only these apps will be allowed to sync while others will have to wait till I wake the phone up.
However, I do get Twitter and native email notifications, which indicates that Stamina doesn't actually do anything.
What's wrong here?

Maybe stamina mode does this for you? As far as i know, stamina mode connects automatically (i think you have to choose this option) when you are near to a trusted wifi network. Disable stamina mode and see if this problems persists.
Hope this helps you sleep tonight
Nah, there is a separate option that enables wifi once you are near a "saved" wifi network! But this is not in stamina mode...
However, check if this setting is enabled. It is under Settings - power management - location based wifi..

Thanks for the replies.
I have checked everything is turned off, wifi off, data off, location based wifi off, I have turned even the stamina off for last night. Still I have got an ebay, gmail notification around 6am.
Maybe there is a automated sync option, which I have not found yet. The thing is I do not remember having these issues with the ICS version.
Can you not put the phone into airplane mode instead?

wifi and mobile data disconnects when screen goes off even with wifi ALWAYS ON mode

My wifi and data connection disconnects when screen goes off on my huawei ascend mate 2. For samsung phones it can be solved with secret codes like ##0011# but for huawei phones the secret codes are not working. or do you know a working secret code on hardware level for this? my power save mode is off. wifi is set on always on mode. auto synchronisation is on. my apps can all run in background. So I have set off all possible energy saving option for all apps. besides I have downloaded apps to keep wifi always on. but when I put it on always on mode on this app. It mentions that the wifi set on always on mode. but after 2 seconds I open the app (wifi always on app) it says that the wifi is on saving mode and not in always on mode. So there is another more dominant program (probably the huawei custom ROM) who has more privileges than a normal app so that it avoids that wifi is on always on mode.
Sometimes even when the screen is on, viber whatsapp does not receive calls or messages you should launch the app to receive calls and messages. you would say that it is a synchronisation problem. No. No. sync is on for all accounts. all accounts have full access on all my data and on the battery. All settings about battery saving options are set off.
I have sort of the same issue. I use KIK to talk to a lot of friends and on other phones I've had (LG G3 previously), I could load up the task manager and clear away all apps and it had no effect on getting messages. Now, with the HAM, if I clear away running programs, including KIK, even though I have KIK set as a protected app, I will not get any messages and people who send me messages say it stays on S (sent) as opposed to D (delivered). If I clear out all running apps and then load KIK up again before turning off the screen, the messages get delivered and I get notification. It's a little annoying, but keeping the program I want to receive notifications, running, seems to solve the issue for me.

Trouble with notifications

Having trouble when phone has been in sleep for half hour or more. Notifications coming through wifi are not working. I've being trying to solve it since yesterday but I'm not having any luck.
I've made sure the apps in question are on auto start in permissions, turned off ultra long standby mode in battery power management settings and set the apps to be exempt from cleaning in app protection settings and even turned off 'align wakeup' in power management, and of course wifi is set always on.
Phone is x820 model running fresh china 17S rom, to which i manually installed google play, gmail, bbm apps.. bbm and gmail are the apps in question are the ones not getting notifications, even though phone can receive an sms messages no problem, weirdly even receiving an sms doesnt spring the other notifications to work, also when turning the screen back on notifications still don't come for up to ten minutes even though wifi is working fine.
Any help would be really apreciated, thanks
Hi,
I'm in the same situation as you.
Also my calendar doesn't want to sync. I've flashed phonesky.apk for google apps but it doesn't contains google agenda sync adapter.. so no agenda sync
I've some app which is always run but seems to be cut by the system
Also have a lot of start up app (reboot) but nothing start huhu
17s china
Yeah it's pretty odd. Maybe the trying the Indian rom is the solution.
Generally the settings for notifications should be done in this way:
1. Check that notifications for the desired apps are ON under the menu Settings - Notification Management
2. Allow the apps to start automatically under the menu Settings - Permissions - You have allowed ... apps to auto launch
3. Disable the auto cleaning of the apps under Phone manager - Power Saving Management - App protection
I have Lock-Screen cleanup unchecked, Ultra-Long standby during sleep checked, Align wakeup checked, Clock night-alignment mode checked.
In this way I have no problems with notifications with whatsapp, viber, e-mail (I'm using yahoo mail with the stock email app), fb messenger, Facebook.
If the above are done and stil there are no notifications, then check in the app itself. The last but not least, reflash the firmware.

thanks for the info, you may be right that it is bbm and the specific gmail account playing up, the phone is for my son and on his old phone was getting @1000 notifications gmail a day lol, i cleaned it up and maybe that's made that gmail acount weird for now.

It's seems when my screen is off, the data is also off because i've shown 0.00kb/s when there is a connection to internet (wifi or data)
but when i turn it on, 1 sec later it show 0.00kb/s so when screen is off, no data ??

If your data will work all the time, then the battery will be drained fast. The phone connects from time to time to the Internet and then you'll get the necessary notifications. I cannot tell you how often is this, but you can decrease the time by deselecting Align Wakeup in Power Saving Management.
I am not sure that the way described above is correct, so if someone knows differently, please state.
edit.. thought i found a workaround, but I jumped the gun. Still trying to work this out.
I'm giving up, thinking about sending phone back under the reason of not fit for purpose
Maybe we need to try cuoco rom.
I've installed gapps by myself so maybe they is a bug with it
I've been testing WhatsApp all night, checking every hour if a message will get through and so far it has.... but i bet as soon as i post this it will stop working, that's the luck i seem to have lol
oddly on 19S rom WhatsApp is automatically set up to lock itself in memory, with the lock sign in recents screen, and autostart enabled in permissions
edit, put the phone in airplane mode while i slept, turned airplane mode off and now whatsapp won't get notifications even with the screen on unless i open WhatsAppl
I'm sure it shouldn't be this hard

Gmail stop syncing after ultra battery saving mode

Hey,
I often use the ultra battery saving mode but i noticed that Gmail stops syncing mails, wich is fine during battery saving. But after deactivating battery saver it does not turn on and has to be activated in Gmails settings. Anyone else has this issue? I actually missed 2 important emails this week because i didnt notice Gmail was not syncing.
Anyone knows how to fix it besides using another email client?
PS: I noticed something similar back when i had my S8+.

Has anyone else encountered an issue with notifications and power saving mode?

So I got myself an S9+ this past weekend and have been getting used to it for the past few days. Sunday or Monday, I turned on power saving as I have it on on my Galaxy Tab A 10.1 with no issues. Well after activating it, notifications stopped. I didn't get any Gmail notifications, no Discord notifications or Groupme notifications. I thought it was weird and started browsing for what could be the problem. After browsing and chatting with their support, who said I should be getting notifications, I decided to turn off power saver and send myself an email to test. Imagine my surprise when the notification came through.
Does anyone know why Power Saving Mode would disable notifications that have complete permissions and urgent settings for their notifications? Is this a reported issue or are there forum posts I haven't seen yet regarding my issue?
Thanks!

There are different levels to the power saving mode however you should always get TXT messages. Check the options that you select in Power Saver mode. That could be the difference. I would be more direct but I dont have my phone, its upstairs.

I had similar issues and had to dig around get advice from these forums before I finally made all the issues go away. Power Saving mode can put applications into a permanent sleep mode where they can't run unless you specifically call for them. Which means all those apps you mention aren't able to wake up to check for notifications even if they were pushed to your phone. It's annoying to open your application to check for messages, and after reading the message it tells you "Hey! You got a message!!" (because now you opened the app and it could check notifications).
The other issue I found was "Doze". After 20 min with the screen off, the phone enters a low power mode where it won't accept notifications pushed to it. This is oddly, completely separate from power saving options. It is possible to hand select applications that you never want to Doze (I believe). It was tricky to find.
