samsung background apps

ggnoredo@lemm.ee to Android@lemdro.id – 13 points –

I almost give up. I tried many many things but my samsung s23 is killing important apps and I miss notifications. As soon as I unlock my phone, all of them showing up instantly. I'm missing messages and important notifications. I'm constantly checking phone because of it. BTW, it's working sometimes I don't know how and when it decides to kill my apps. I disabled any memory and battery related optimizations and mark my important apps as unrestricted and never sleep but it doesn't work mostly

EDIT: it's definitely duckduckgo app tracker. It somehow kills some apps. Disabled it and all of my issues are gone away

do not have this issue with my s21. what important apps it kills?

Zulip, talk, banking apps, home assistant

that's weird, I haven't faced any optimisation issues on my S23 Ultra, I get all messages like normal

No such issues on my Fold 4. I even have battery saver mode on all the time, but I turn off optimizations for some important apps and it works fine.

do a factory reset and start from scratch. do optimizations step by step to learn the cause of your problem.

Starting from stratch will take huge amounts of time, configs and other things , is it really the only way. Im using android for 2 months and i just installed my apps.

That shouldn't happen with fault free hardware and standard apps from official appstores. have you tried reaching out to the support?

Do this. If you don't want to start from scratch you can reset all permissions in the settings somewhere, but that means you'll have to re-grant permissions again. It is possible that there is an app installed that is "managing" things.

Settings > Battery and Device Care > Battery > Background Usage Limits > Never Sleeping

Add all the apps you want constantly running to this list.

Will leave this post up but just a heads up on rule 2 in the sidebar. Tech support and other questions related to Android are welcome at !askandroid@lemdro.id. Thanks!

This website has some good tips.

Yes, i did all of the advices there

I don't have a Samsung, but check your apps (maybe system apps?) and look for "Google Services Framework" and "Google Play Services". See if you can disable any optimisations and clean the app data. Reboot and then open the Play Store - which might not work well right away - but will force Services Framework to "reload". Reboot again after a minute or so and see if the problem has improved. I'd also try to remove and re-add your Google account.

One of these (Play Services/Services Framework) handle the "cloud notifications" used for push notifications.

Thia gave me problems on galaxy watch, it won't connect to samsung and google, tried to reset it but cant add it back

It doesn't work even after rebooting the phone again? Weird. Cleaning app data for these apps does stop them from working, but opening the Play Store and doing something inside (eg: checking for app updates) and then rebooting makes everything work again on my devices.

I'm testing now but this seems to fix the issue.
