Very sorry! Thank you very much for the help! You're awesome!

I've had the "fix" suggested by jetspeedz on my phone for several days now. So far, I don't think I've missed a single push, wifi or cellular. Keep in mind I also made the change on my router (disabling IPv6). For now, everything is working and I'm pleased!

Keep in mind Wildo, my issues were mostly fixed even before this. I'm leaning towards my disabling of IPv6 on my home router as being one of the major fixes now though, bearing in mind everything jetspeedz has shared. However, I'll check back in a couple days and let you know.

Awesome, thanks for the explanation and backstory behind this! Always nice to hear information from the inside. Now after all these settings are made, is anything else necessary (reboot?) and is there any way to turn off the other one or do you just add an APN like that and be done with it...

Re: Not receiving Gmail push notifications on Galaxy S6 Okay I will admit I know nothing about APNs. I read back and finally found your post about APNs and I know how to find them on the phone. What exactly do I need to do, just create a new APN with the exact same settings, but omitting IPv6...

Re: Not receiving Gmail push notifications on Galaxy S6 In my case, I just don't like the "sit and wait" philosophy, and I'm sure others don't as well. I'm sure it's also a motivator that some peoples' issues seem to be at least partially resolved.

Re: Not receiving Gmail push notifications on Galaxy S6 This was one of the reasons I was very hesitant to switch from iOS to Android... I'm being hopeful and optimistic though. I ALMOST decided to hold out for the next Nexus phone for this reason.

Re: Not receiving Gmail push notifications on Galaxy S6 Exactly, those were where my issues were as well. By the sounds of it I think that's where most people are seeing their issues. I agree with you, it took me a while to find any threads that really applied too. Everywhere I searched it...

Re: Not receiving Gmail push notifications on Galaxy S6 Well I've been using my Note 5 for four days and some change now. I've tweaked about every setting in the device, moreso just exploring and getting the battery consumption where I want it than worrying about my push notifications. After a...

Unfortunately that still has not resolved it. I was sitting at my desk, unlocked my phone and was navigating around without any notifications until I actually opened Hangouts. Once I did, I had two messages that had not notified me.

This may be a premature answer, but I think my notifications are indeed doing better now. I'll need to mess with this setting more later and see if I'm seeing the same results if I toggle this back. One thing that I definitely noticed before is with Hangouts, every time I would open the app, it...

I had wondered about this too, Tim. Theoretically wouldn't that turn WiFi off while the phone is sleeping, thus using your data instead of WiFi for notifications? I'll try that though and see. Thanks!

What version is it so I know what to look for? I know very little about Android (just switched from iOS)

I wish I knew what you did, still having the issue myself.

I'm having similar issues with notifications. For me it seems to be affecting Hangouts and Gmail. I have a Note 5 through AT&T. Sometimes everything syncs up when I unlock it but sometimes I have to go into the app. Really frustrating..
