Bug

Details

Push notifications don't arrive if the phone has been locked for some time (usually, more than 10 min). The notifications DO arrive immediately as the phone gets unlocked.
There is no issues with notifications of all other applications. Disabling battery optimization for zmNinja does not help as well as turning off Adaptive Battery feature (system wide).

Thanks!

I'm not really sure how to replicate this. My android device (Moto E, Android 7) doesn't show this behavior at all. If you can install adb on your system and do adb logcat | grep PushPlugin while the phone is connected via USB I may get some tips on what the phone is doing when a message is pushed

Ok, I think I may have a solution

1. Stop the server
2. Edit it, around line 842, add priority=>1 to the message like so:

 my $android_message = {
            to=>$obj->{token},
            data=> {
                title=>$title,
                message=>$header." at ".$now,
                style=>"inbox",
                myMessageId=> $notId,
                icon=>"ic_stat_notification",
                mid=>$mid,
                eid=>$eid,
                badge=>$obj->{badge},
                priority=>1
            }    
        };

The issue happens only when the cellphone is running on battery. If connected to an external power, all notifications arrive successfully

closing as OP confirmed latest fix above resolves this issue

[ifurman68]

Just to clarify. This is what fixed this issue

my $android_message = {
to=>$obj->{token},
priority=>'high',
data=> {
title=>$title,
message=>$header." at ".$now,
style=>"inbox",
myMessageId=> $notId,
icon=>"ic_stat_notification",
mid=>$mid,
eid=>$eid,
badge=>$obj->{badge},
priority=>1
}
};
