*Written for OxygenOS OP3_O2_Open_7 (community build), no idea if this
|
|
|
|
|
happens on stable builds, but it will probably start happening there.*
|
|
|

|

A few weeks ago I got annoyed by a new update which introduced "a smart
|
|
|
|
|
background app killing mechanism" as after that I stopped receiving
|
|
|
|
|
notifications. I tolerated it for some time and, as this is some time after
|
|
|
|
|
I returned to Telegram, I went to
|
|
|
|
|
[r/OnePlus Telegram group](https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/4bucfp/introducing_the_official_roneplus_telegram_group/) asking for help after
|
|
|
|
|
official support had had no idea on what is the issue.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
They immediately had the answer, open *Settings*, go to *Battery*,
|
|
|
|
|
touch the *three dots*, select *Aggressive doze & app hibernation* and
|
|
|
|
|
disable *Enable aggressive doze & app hibernation*.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> When this is enabled, doze will operate more aggressively. Background
|
|
|
|
|
> apps will automatically enter hibernation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It might sound like a good idea, but it kills notifications from mostly
|
|
|
|
|
all apps and I already use Greenify's Aggressive Doze which is just the
|
|
|
|
|
normal Android doze launched in a few minutes instead of a few hours
|
|
|
|
|
and it respects my whitelist.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This might have fixed notifications as long as I started the apps after
|
|
|
|
|
booting at least once, but if I didn't start the app, I would miss
|
|
|
|
|
notifications until I started the app. I thought this was a bug and was
|
|
|
|
|
patiently waiting for fix, until accidentally finding out what is the
|
|
|
|
|
problem.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Open *Settings* again, go to *Apps* this time and there select the *wheel*
|
|
|
|
|
next to the three dots and under *Advanced* open *App auto-launch*. Disable
|
|
|
|
|
*App auto-launch* and reboot and be surprised when all notifications
|
|
|
|
|
work again!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> When you turn it on, the system will prevent these apps from launching in
|
|
|
|
|
> the background.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This might also seem like a good idea, but I still have Greenify
|
|
|
|
|
hibernating apps that I don't care about enough to have them receiving
|
|
|
|
|
notifications all the time, but I would appreciate communication apps
|
|
|
|
|
to send notifications to me regardless of whether I open them after boot
|
|
|
|
|
by myself or not.
