Did a quick search, nothing obvious popped up for me...But i have an annoying thing with my S3 and facebook messenger, it can sometimes take 30-40 mins before my phone tells me there is a message, doesnt matter if the app is open in the background or not, ive reinstalled it, cleared data and removed and re-added my account with no change - anything else that i could try? The normal facebook app never tells me of messages does for notifications though lol.

Hey! I have a rooted Thunderbolt (Das BAMF Remix 1.6.3, using Imo's 2.7.0 leanKernel), but I have the LauncherPro app and I have my dock display my calls, messages, GMail, as well as a shortcut to the browser.
When I installed this about three weeks ago, my SMS notifications used to work (when I get a notification, a little red notification bubble came up next to my message icon, which was customized, and so are the rest of my dock icons), and then it stopped working - once I installed SMS Go, it started to work again for a bit, and then stopped.
So for two weeks I sort of just accepted that, and then for some odd reason my GMail notifications stopped working... I would get e-mail, and it would say "Inbox (1)" when I click on the GMail icon to open it up, but to see it I would have to refresh and then it would pop up and then if I went to the home screen, the notification bubble would return. These notifications used to be instantaneous; I sent myself a test e-mail and waited for hours, and after doing several test e-mails, I realized sometimes (not all the time though) the application, even after an hour, was not recognizing I got mail until I refreshed.
I tried changing setting to check mail often, made sure on LauncherPro's preferences I set the notifications to be on... I am just unsure why my notifications would stop working (and my GMail is slowly going to crap - I even uninstalled and reinstalled, did not help).
Does anyone have any advice, opinions, or suggestions for this weird problem? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
Bump - does anyone have any suggestions? I just tried uninstalling and reinstalling GMail again with no success.

Check under accounts to make sure that sync is still on for your Gmail account.

Go into Settings > manage apps > all. Open the Gmail icon. Click on "clear cache " and "clear data ". Ignore the warnings. Return to home page, and open Gmail. It will resync, and your problem should be solved.

I've had gmail bug out on me about three times total dating all the way back to my OG droid. It always happened after flashing a new ROM even with full wipes. My situation was a little different (basically if I "deleted" a email in the gmail app it wouldn't actually delete. It would never resync to my phone but I still would get a x amount of new messages. I would then log into my gmail on the pc and there are all the messages that I had "deleted") I solved this once by just clearing data and cache, but the other two times I had to do a wipe and reinstall. What was interesting though is each time I back upd my current Rom and used that on the restore and bam it was fixed.
Is there any way I can change the frequency of when the GMail app checks mail/forwards them to my phone?
through the gmail app itself no. You could use the "mail" provider on the phone and receive gmail that way. In that program you (i think) can set up the frequency that it syncs. A couple of downsides to this though:
1. unless it has changed since I haven't tried it since the OG droid, it won't delete emails off your web based account only your phone.
2. you would need to delete the gmail app on your phone.
I am not sure if this is just a glitch or not, but it appears my Gmail app on my phone is no longer syncing.
Notifications are not being sent either. It seems to have started today randomly. I would have to go into Gmail app, back out into the "Inbox" for it to show that there are new messages. Otherwise, it would not refresh at all.
This happens on both WIFI & 3G/HSPA+. I'm using stock everything.
Any suggestions?
I haven't had Gmail sync properly on my phone yet. With my Galaxy S I'd receive emails within a few seconds of them being sent with push notifications. Now with my Galaxy S2 I'm lucky if I get a notification within an hour.
EDIT: Looks like after a manual refresh, the first message I get will get a push notification, but after that it seems to take ages before I'll get another notification.
Yesterday I noticed that Gmail on my S2 is not syncing automatically. I cleared data (the usual procedure) and that fixed it.
Today I notice something new: when I receive a new email and I get the Gmail notification at the top, the notification disappears as soon as I open Gmail even if I didn't open any new mail yet. For almost two years the notification used to stay there until I cleared it. What the hell is going on?
Since two days ago push notifications on my lumia 920 are not working!!!
Viber, Whats app show no new messages, but when I open them - there are unread messages.
I've tried everything, restart, re install of apps but nothing -..
Could it be something wrong with their servers or what? Before, everything was working fine.
Now, when I enter viber rewievs in the market app - I see that a lot of people are having the same issue!!!
How come - both applications to fail at a same time? Strange
PS. sms messages are working fine

is their option to run in backgroung disabled ? are you running in battery saver ?
this can explain your problems, also if your internet connection is not OK.
I don't have any problems with whatsapp these days.
You didn't turn "battery saver" function on. Right? Battery saver will stop all background service include people and e-mail sync too.
same happening to me...with whatsapp. no battery saver, no background task blocked....just no notification until you opet the whatsapp...used to work before...gdr2 messed up my phone...its sometimes quite slow...lag and not working as before the update...

hmm I notice something today I receive some error messages from whatsapp regarding push notifications, but earlier I had notification from data sense app that my data limit is nearly reached, because I was checked the option - "Restrict background data when I'm near my limit".
See below screenshot:
I have a very strange issue with my Facebook Messenger right now. I tried searching on her but found squat.
The problem is very specific. When I clear a notification about a direct message on Facebook (Regardless if its in the Facebook Messenger app or the regular Facebook app (I have different accounts on them as I have a business, has never been an issue before)), the Facebook Messenger app force closes. Every time.
So basically it goes like this.
I receive a direct message on Facebook or Facebook Messenger.
My phone gives me a notification.
I clear the notification.
Facebook Messenger Force Closes.
What's weirdest to me is that it crashes even though I have different accounts signed in. It should be noted I have tried being on the same account on both, and it still crashed. At first I thought it was my phone, but I just changed from a Motorola Razr XT910 to an LG G2 D802, and the issue persists.
What's the cause of this, and how do I solve it?
