[Q] no push notifications on wifi with KK

[razen_kain]

I'm having the same issue with KitKat CM11 ROM on my HP Touchpad (which is WiFi only), and will have to try this. Notifications come in instantly on my iPhone/iPads, but my Touchpad gets some serious delays...sometimes right away, and sometimes delayed.

By the way, did "Sync App Data" setting for an account have anything to do with push notifications, or is that more for backup purposes?

Oh darn, mine is still delayed even with the push notification fixer installed and WiFi heartbeat at 5min. Even after I've just rebooted my Touchpad, actively using it, and not even 5 minutes has passed. Delay was 8 minutes and then the notifications came streaming in.

With Android/KitKat, do you have to have the app open in the background for push notifications to go thru? Or run the app at least once after a reboot?

You shouldn't have to. Try setting the heartbeat to a lower time. Also (and this was the root of my whole problem) try using a different router.
