the problem I am having is with Push notifications in Android. In order to receive my WhatsApp notifications I need to manually launch the application, which I don't want do. I want to be able to receive my notifications at any time...
I've heard that it might be due to the Push Notification not working so, I decided to download from Google Play the app PNF No-Root
which changed the heartbeat interval to 5 minutes (I use WLAN connection) and it didn't work at all (the same for similar apps). I tried looking for other solutions. I went to Settings > Data Usage > WLAN > WhatsApp
to check if the Restrict background data box was unchecked, it was unchecked.
I also went to Apps > WhatsApp
to see if the box "Show Notifications" was Checked. Went to WLAN > ADVANCED
and set "Keep WLAN on during sleep" as "Always". Finally, I launched WhatsApp and all the settings are correctly set for me to receive, but I don't. When I go to Apps > Running > Whatsapp
it says that there is 1 Process and to Services (although it shows 1 service sometimes), ExternalMediaManager
and MessageService
.
My device is a Lenovo A5000
with Android OS 4.4.2
I don't know what else to try, thanks.
