Weird notification issues

In the last few days I have a problem with notifications. I get notifications when the screen is on. But as soon as I turn the screen off the alarm doesn't ring, I don't get notifications from Whatsapp or Facebook Messenger. Weirdly enough, I get my e-mails instantly no matter if the screen is on or off, same with receiving phone calls. What could be causing this? My phone is rooted with Cataclysm ROM. But I have the ROM for some time now and it worked normally.

I have the same thing here.
Did you use gmail for works ?

I am a stupid idiot. Since I have a custom ROM I enabled "Long press back to kill user app" in the Cataclysm settings. In time I started killing all apps like that upon exiting them. When you do this to your clock, facebook or whatsapp it kills them and they go to sleep. You can only wake them when you start them again and then the notifications come. Maybe it's the same for you?

whatsapp not respecting DND

As the title suggest, am having issues w/ whatsapp not respecting DND, in that audio + vibration notifications continue through DND hours. these alerts come from messages sent by both favorite and non-favorite contacts. my DND settings is:
type: custom
repeat callers: allow
calls from: contacts only
messages from: none
events/task alert: off
reminders: off
priority app notification: none (definitely not whatsapp)
am on the latest version of whatsapp but have had this problem on earlier versions as well. anyone else encounter this problem?

Having the same issue.. And Facebook messenger aswell. Can't understand why these apps force to work around this...
Edit: Sorted. I had in DND settings allowed custom notifications, but had the message from favorites aswell turned on that was causing the issue in whatapp and messenger. Turning off for messages (but left for calls) it seemed to sort it out

Not the first time with emails...

I've had this happen before, and forgot what I did short of restoring the device to get the email notifications to show up, but I'm not going to keep that as a solution. I'm rooted, up to November's patch, running Xposed, running flatstylebars under Xposed, and running Xtouchwiz. I tried disabling both of them. I have used Blue Mail, Alto, Gmail, and not getting any notifications other than the badge via Tesla and Nova on the dock. No notices in the notifications bar, and none on the lock screen. I've gone through and made sure every notification is set for even in Do Not Disturb mode. Rebooted more times than I care to count. Anyone have an idea why these just flaked out, and how to get them back? Using Evolve for messages because apparently when you root, Samsung's default messenger quits sending on AT&T, but those notifications show up, and so do Facebook messengers'.

Disable Power Saving only for specific Apps?

Hi there
I have this issue again where I don't receive notifications with Google Inbox app when I receive email.
I had this issue before on my s6 and it was related to power saving. There was a way to fix this and only for a specific app. But now I can't find it even did Google Search.
Also tried to look into it via S8 settings everywhere but can't find it and I don't want to shut off power savings mode.
Any idea how I can disable it just for specific apps?

you'll need to set Inbox to "Apps not optimized"
in battery usage (device maint. > battery > battery usage > 3 dots > optimized apps )
choose All apps then turn off toggle for Inbox.

I've been having this kind of problem with WhatsApp. I see the notification icon arrive but it doesn't really notify me with sound until after a couple of minutes.
Hopefully what @crayonyes wrote is what I needed. Thanks in advance!

Thanks. I did that. Unfortunately still doesn't work. I checked everything, all notifications & sync is on. I even put Inbox as high priority app. Still no notifications.
I've had so many problems with Google Inbox & notifications on my previous Galaxy and now again. Just really annoying it persists.
Not sure what to do now.

Try clearing data for Gmail. This has worked for a few people.

No Whatsapp notifications (whatsoever)

Hi,
I have a redmi k20 on Chinese ROM. I receive no whatsapp notifications at all. I had this problem on miui 10 and it persists in miui 11. This issue is driving me insane.
I have granted all permissions for whatsapp, disabled battery saver, enabled notifications and locked the app in memory. I have also cleared app data and reinstalled whatsapp multiple times. It's very weird. When I open whatsapp, any new received messages appear. Also, if I'm in a whatsapp chat and I receive a message from a different conversation, it closes the chat I'm in and I lose whatever I was typing.
Any advice?

MIUI always close apps that use too much memory, you need an AOSP ROM to "fix" this

Put the original theme.
or test various themes until it works.
themes don't work well with lookscreen

How to fix MIUI push notifications in 2019
MIUI has come a long way in the last two years. And while the interface has received a much-needed facelift and a trove of new features, it still has a few lingering issues. Push notifications continue to be a significant problem in MIUI thanks to Xiaomi's aggressive memory management, but there is a workaround. Here's how to fix push notifications in MIUI 10.
Open Settings from the home screen.
Scroll down to the Apps sub-menu.
Select Permissions.
How to fix push notifications in MIUI 10
Tap Autostart.
Choose the apps that aren't sending push notifications.
Toggle the slider to ensure the apps always start in the background.
How to fix push notifications in MIUI 10
If you don't see a particular app listed in autostart or are still facing issues with notifications, you should disable the built-in battery optimization. Doing so will ensure that the app isn't being restricted by MIUI's memory management.
Open Settings from the home screen.
Scroll down to the System & Device sub-menu.
Select Battery & performance
How to fix push notifications in MIUI 10
Tap Choose apps.
Select the app that isn't showing notifications.
Choose No restrictions.
How to fix push notifications in MIUI 10
Choosing the No restrictions mode is the best way to prevent MIUI from killing off an app running in the background. This is also the method that has worked for me over the years with Gmail and Slack. So if you're having problems with push notifications, this is the best way to get around the issue.

Interesting question but is the sound set ON for the notifications? Just curious because some of the apps on my phone had it muted and set to vibrate only so I had to go to Notifications section find the needed app and set the sound ON.
And the other thing is that Whatsup is blocked in China maybe Chinese ROM is missing some service required by Whatsup or preventing it to work properly, no clue can't say.
