Possible Solution For Notifications

I think that the notifications that don't appear when screen off is caused by the restricted background data that lenovo has pre-checked. Just untick the option ​shown in the picture to allow background data for the application you want. Tell me if this will work for you

Also turn off battery optimization for this app.
Settings->power management->battery optimization and then choose all apps instead of not optimized, find the app you want and disable battery optimization

I have done this also :crying:. Upon re-opening Messenger while on data, it shows 'Waiting for Network' then 'Connected' and all the notifications come through. Ive also tried disabling Doze to no avail. Notifications work fine when on Wifi so not sure what the problem is, looks like a software design problem made by Lenovo. I might try Lineage in the future.

I find that when I return home and phone gets WiFi while pulling in drive I suddenly get Gmail notifications so seems mine is same.

The only way to fix notifications I've found that actually works is to disable doze via adb shell.

Sadly this fix needs to be reapplied every time you restart the phone making it a bandaid for a gunshot wound.

It feels like the OnePlus 3 all over again...
