Whatsapp incoming push notification delays. Need help

[kohkindachi]

Hey guys I've a problem with my whatsapp (on S3). Example: My friend sent me a message at 830am, but at 1030am I've still not received any incoming notification (screen is off)....until I open whatsapp personally to check. Any advice?

I don't have any task killer installed and already tried restarting the phone and reinstalling whatsapp

lousy telco?

 

[gapboy]

try whatsapp plus mod version and full of customization (and its free), Google for link on XDA forum

You are not alone, it happens to me once in a while as well on s4.

I believe one of my friends on S2 also had the problem where she has to log into whatsapp before receiving the message.

Could be an issue with the telco.

Telco issue if I'm not wrong..

 

[kohkindachi]

Really telco problems? I'm using SH.
What I see here is when the phone screen is off, whatsapp isn't working, until I open it myself.

I'll try the custom whatsapp. Hope no root require :/

i'm currently having this prob too after i reset my s3 yesterday. besides whatsapp, my facebook and internet loading is slow too.

SH only able to solve the internet potion. whatsapp is a third party software and they are unable to advise.

i understand iphone5 have such prob too.. but not so common?

 

[kohkindachi]

Hmmmm...what telcos are you guys using?

Ok so far i did some test. A painful one though.

Did any of you all did install battery saver app before (inclusive for those whom uninstalled before)? Those type whereby only when the screen is turned off the Data is turned off?

What i did was to factory reset it. After i factory reset it and i never touch any battery saver app ever, my whatsapp comes in promptly. Has been good for the past 2 days.

Im using starhub too. Faced the same problem. Sometime cant even load fb. Data service really sucks.

 

[leon0079]

definitely starhub.

cos i tested on 2 models and same results.

STARHUB REALLY SUCKS!

Want to blame telco also very impossible. Whatsapp text are in BYTES leh. You tell me even running on 2g it can even send loh. Dont need until 3g or lte.

 

[Iceman127]

having the same problem since 3 months ago on S3. I'm on M1. Currently there seems to be no fix.

 

[alvinblank]

Do you have any battery saving apps installed? They do interfere some-what...

 

[pker88]

[sbu7360]

My s4 also having tis problem already.. n im on a new s4, nothing done to the phone

 

[kl39717]

My S4 kena... My friend Note 2 also kena... We both on SH.

 

[cheryl81]

me n my fren on m1. I only receive the msg like 10-30 mins later. not once liao

 

[alphaone]

Samsung S2 user here, also on Star Hub.

Have noticed this delay for around 1, 2 weeks... Either msg comes in 15 mins late, or I'll have to open WhatsApp for a while, before the msgs flow in...

Gonna reset my phone n try...

I believe is not telcos fault. Cause they can help send the text to whatsapp server. And whatsapp server will re route to your receipents. So i dont see the issues with telcos. Cause if we are able to load a webpage easily in megabytes. I dont think so its an issue with telco to sent it in bytes. I believe its whatsapp.
