Push notifications stop working after some time. - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a problem with my SGS2 : Push notifications (Gmail, chrome-to-phone...) work when I just started the phone, but then they stop working after a few minutes.
Then if I reboot it works fine again, and stops working 20 minutes later.
I'm running XWKE2, rooted, and I have frozen a bunch of samsung apps with Titanium backup. Does anyone have any idea where it might come from ?
Thanx !

OK, I'm now on XWKE7 rooted and I kept all the samsung apps but nothing changed, I still can't rely on push notifications at all (sometimes they work fine, most of the time not at all, and sometimes they arrive late).
Also, and I think it is linked, Gtalk doesn't really work either : It will show all my contacts as offline when they're obviously not, and sometimes when I send a message to a contact (s)he will suddenly appear as online, or my message never gets sent. Same for messages sent to me, sometimes they work and sometimes they get lost.
It happens on Wifi, 2G or 3G.
I'm going back to my Nexus One for now but it's hard... The screen seems really small now that I'm used to the SGS2 ^^

Still no solution... Any idea ?

Not receiving sms

I'm getting tired of this annoying problem. Four times it had happened to me and each time I reinstalled the phone software with the pc companion. It doesn't matter whether I'm not rooted (the first two times) or rooted. It kept on occurring. SMSes don't come in while others seem to be working fine, phone, internet, etc. I've tried restoring the sms related things using titanium back up but yet it seemed that the only remedy is reinstalling. Thought this time, I got an idea of may cause this. Each time it happened, I seem to be coming out from plane mode for the second time since the software installation. Going to try that now. But in the mean time, any ideas what may be wrong or if any of you experience the same problem?
Hi, i've had the same pb, it seems coming from lack of memory, if you got the little hard drive icon with the red exclamation dot, it means you don't have enough space free, and sms aren't received. So the solution, after all, is to desinstall some of your apps to get rid of that icon and finally a little test is to, when you've done that, send a sms to yourself and see if it works again.
hope it helps.
Well that's a huge possibility as each time it happens, that warning has pop out. But I'm sure each time the warning of low storage come on, it still has at least 10 mb. How can 10 mb not enough for texts?
Well i don't really know maybe some configuration, but i can assure you that it is one of the cause: i did a simple test, on the edge of 10mb i installed an app from the market, then the icon showed up and no sms could be received. after desinstall that same app, icon disappear, and sms was received.
I just noticed it so i try to always have this 10mb amount of memory... i just do with it, maybe someone who understands better how it works could help more than me
i have different problem. after root i cat receive nor send MMS.. working like charm without root. x10mini, 2.1 firmware.
i have no clue why

[Q] Weird Texting Issue (Queued Texts?)

I am having a weird issue with my LTE involving texts. This morning I restarted my phone and then a little bit later I got a couple text from some friends asking what I was talking about. I went into Handcent and looked at my conversations and found one text, which I sent on 6/5 or 6/6, was either resent or just sent for the first time this morning following the restart of the phone.
I called one of the guys asking him about the message sent to him and he said he never received it when I originally sent it, even though my phone showed it sent successfully.
Has anyone experienced anything like this?
this happens to me too. the radios seem to be able to only do one thing, so if while you sending, it needs to reconnect, connect to wifi,3g, or if you get a text, chat, or phone call while the first action is going (sending a text in this case) it seems to just hang. the thing being sent won't finish but looks like hanging forever (I've found some texts like 2 days later still spinning) and whatever the other action was won't come through. I've been told about chats or texts or talks sent to me I never receive if sending something, or usually the thing will hang for like 5 minutes and then I see I voicemail icon pop up and, surprise surprise, it came 5 minutes prior when my txt was hanging(it still is hanging, hangs forever) or a website loading hangs or connecting to wifi that never finishes. something about how this thing handles multitasking is just rubbish.
I think it has something to do with the way switching back to browser reloads the page, switching back to gmail reloads the composing page, switching back to angry birds forgets your pause and restarts the game, basically,I think they borked the multitasking somehow. sense itself reloads, quite embarrassing when trying to show off the phone, when you press home button from certain apps.
I've read if you flash a custom rom, it fixes all this. seems drastic to me, you'd think a hack would fix this.

[Q] notifications issues (whatsapp)

Hello guys how are you? Although I have found similar threads about it, I couldnt find a solution to my problem. I got a Star N8000 with android 4.1.1 1 month and a half ago and I think its a great phone... anyways the point is that when Im connected on wifi everything is perfect, notifications arent delayed at all but when I use data mobile its different =/ when the screen turns off for 5 mins or something like that, notifications are quite delayed... sometimes I have to turn on the screen and wait like 20 secs after I open whatsapp and all messages start to come. I dont know why I cannot connect to 3G service, maybe its because Movistar doesnt have it (Im from venezuela) so I use EDGE and I figured out about something: when I open whatsapp (after inactivity) it starts to try to connect I think because in the signal icon appears two white signs like an arrow or something like that. I dont know if it the software but it doesnt happen on wifi:.. so I dont have any idea about it. Im not root user (tried to be but didnt work) and I dont have any task killer... even I reseted the phone but didnt work either so I dont have any idea how to fix that
nobody?

Constant SMS Notification

I have (obviously) an HTC One AT&T Model, running CyanogenMod 11 M2? Whatever the current milestone is. I'm pretty sure it's 2. Anyways
EDIT: The CM version is 11-20140104-SNAPSHOT-M2-m7att
I'm not sure if this is a ROM error or not, but I've got a really strange bug. CM 11 was running mostly fine, aside from the occasional reboot, which was a deal breaker fr me, as I really enjoyed it otherwise.
However, yesterday, right before class, I was on a phone call, and when I hung up, I locked my screen as usual. Well I went to unlock it a few minutes later, and the screen was black, but the backlight was on, and the control keys on the bottom were on. I could not get the phone to respond to anything, so I hard shut it down(held the power button for about 10 seconds). When I booted it back up, it had made 2 changes I noticed immediately.
1.) My background was reset from the one I had to a random CM wallpaper, and not even the one that comes with CM11.
2.) (and the more annoying one) I now have a constant notification from my default messaging app that tells me i have XX amount of new notifications, with the number growing every time I get a new message.
Now, I use EvolveSMS as my default, having just recently switched from GoSMSPro to Hangouts with CM11, and now this one. I have never used the default messaging app, as it just plain lacks some features I want. I've gone through the default app, however, and "read" every text,and the number in the notification did not decrease. When I clear my notification, it returns within 3 seconds. I think 3 seconds is longest I've gone without it.
Yesterday, I went through and, regretably, deleted ALL of my texts. At that time, I had 35 "new"messages. That got rid of the notification. So I went back to using my EvolveSMS, and now today, I got the notification again, and have 37 "new" messages as of now.
Any ideas what the heck could cause this? Obviously that random freeze had something to do with it, I just can't find anything out.

Change your messaging app from hangouts to messaging, the notification will go away, and stays away after you switch back to hangouts. Done and done.

Anyone else with texts not sending issues?

Seems like over the past week or two, I am routinely getting errors when sending texts. Sometimes it is an MMS, other times a text to a single recipient.
Sometimes it happens, other times not. Happens on Wifi, and when in data.
If I reboot, it usually fixes it, but only for a short while.
it happens with both the Samsung Messages app, as well as the Google app.
Any ideas that don't involve hard reset of the phone? No other issues, just texts...

Having the same issue here. It seems to have appeared with this last update and is now occuring about every other text (outgoing only). I have so far been able to "tap to retry" and it sends after that but the fact that its even happening at all makes me hate this phone even more.
