Fixing notification issues on LeEco devices
Fixing notification issues on LeEco devices
Overview
Like many Chinese phone manufacturers, LeEco tailor their devices to be very aggressive in closing down applications and services in the background which can lead to missed notifications.
In this post I will outline the modifications required to minimise this issue, along with a few other tips on setting up a LeEco device.
Auto Launch
Settings / Permissions / You have allowed n apps to auto launch
Select all the applications that are allowed to start up when the phone boots. This should include all apps for which you require notifications - e.g. email clients, messenger applications, social network apps etc.
Power Saving Management
Settings / Battery / Power saving management
Ultra-long standby during sleep - turn off
Lock-screen cleanup - turn off
App protection - select all apps from which you require notifications
Battery assistant - turn off
While in the Battery section, I like to enable Status bar - battery percentage
Background Resource Control
Dial *#*#46360000#*#*
Enable background resource control - turn off
Notification management
Settings / Notification management
This allows us to define notification type on a per-app basis. The defaults for this are usually acceptable, but it is worth taking a look at the options available here.
Settings / Display / LED notification light
Mobile data restriction
Downloads app / Settings
In order to download apps and files over the mobile / cell network we need to lift the restriction.
Data connection download notice - No limit.
