IPhone 4 push notification delay

Hi guys,
I have a problem with iPhone push notifications for the last two weeks. I use the same wifi network at home and in the office and the same devices (MacBook Pro with retina display, iPad 3rd gen and iPhone 4). While the iPad and MacBook Pro receive iMessages, Emails, Twitter and Facebook notifications and all the other notifications at the same time, the iPhone receives it 5–10 mins later or even more.
I have push turned on. I have tried to restore the iPhone and restored data from the backup (because I need data on it). I don't know what is the reason and why it started happening. I haven't install new apps this time or changed settings etc.
Any ideas? iPad and iPhone has the same iOS 5.1.1. Mac has the latest Mountain Lion 10.8.1 as well.
I saw people saying it's the problem of iOS 5.1.1, but iPad works fine in my case, so the problem might me different.

Okay, if you set up Gmail and Yahoo mail in the Exchange fashion, then push should work. However, there have been a number of posts on this and other forums about the failings of Yahoo push for some time now. I would believe this could be your issue with that. As far as Gmail, if you have push set up correctly in all the areas for that and it is set up for the Exchange version, it should work. I do not use either of these mail providers, so I cannot make comments based on personal experience. As far as Facebook is concerned, I would suggest turning off the notification and then turning it back on again. I use Facebook but not push notifications as it is not that important to me, however there is a section in Settings, Facebook and that sets push notifications.
If none of this corrects your Facebook issue, I suggest a restore. When connected to iTunes, you can click on Restore. Make sure you do a backup of the iPhone, you sync your contact and calendar data to the supported application on the computer and import photos from the camera roll. Try a restore from a backup first, and if that doesn't work, then a restore as a new device. Then sync information back to the iPhone from iTunes.

  • Iphone 4 push notifications not working for any app

    hi, Actually I own an iPhone 4 os 4.2.1(8c148). The thing is that push notification for all the apps that support this feature is not working, I've been an iphone user for long time now, so I konw all the stuff about turning on the push notifications etc. the problem is that my phone give me the pushes like 1 hr or 2 late, or some times never , i just have to open the apps to see my new messages and stuff. Since i live in colombia I have brought the iphone to the store and they take it for like a week and then they give me the phone back saying that is ok , but it isn't. I' have reinstalled the software, I've done anything you can think of, like turning on an of push notification, put it in plane mode, restore as new, backups, and I don't know what else to do, and the thing is that in colombia they don't exchange your phone that easy as it is in the US. So please any advise? ANd I'm sorry about my English. Thank you!

    Unfortunately you have already done everything we can possibly instruct you to do.. at this point the only option is getting them to exchange it its under warranty its not working you have to get a exchange

  • IPhone 5S Push Notification Not Working At Times PLEASE Help Anyone??

    I just got this as a replacement phone for the previous iPhone 5S which I SHOULD have kept that one since I wasn't having problems much. First of all, Twitter push notifications weren't working then fixed it by going to reset settings..NOW when I'm in 3G or 4G LTE mode, at times I'm NOT getting push notificatoins whenever someone sends me messages!! it used to send me messages and push notifications for my previous iPhones!! How can I fix this problem?? Does it sound like a software bug problem? if I update to the latest iOS version, should it work?? This happened when I first used this phone. Do you think it SHOULDNT be the device?? I am very NERVOUS because I don't want to get stuck to this 2 yr contract my mom yelled at me saying i cant do anymore replacements because it will cost extra which it did!! (shipping fee and also 30 dollars) .

    Did you tried the button next to the volume?, to turn on or off the touchpad, is very sensitive.
    If this doesnt works you can try :
    - shut down the computer.
    - disconnect the electricity
    - remove the battery
    - press the start button 20 seconds
    after that,
    - connect the battery and the electricity and turn on the computer.
    I hope that works!

    I need a simple paid or free app that will allow me to have gchat (googlechat). Nearly all the apps I saw have issues, and there aren't too many that talk about functionality on 4.1 on Iphone 4.

    The server side push notification support is only available as of Beehive 2.0.1.5. What server version are you using.

  • New/Upgraded iPhone - No Push Notifications

    I recently upgraded my iPhone 3G to a 3GS. Both are running the latest version of the OS.
    iTunes set up the 3GS by importing data from a backup. Now I'm not receiving any push notifications on the 3GS, even though they were working fine on the 3G and notifications are turned ON on the 3GS.
    Do I need to reinstall everything, or is there a simple fix?

  • Push notifications not working in ios 7 on iphone 5

    Since upgrading to ios 7 on my iphone 5 push notifications are not working, specifically for mail, mailbox, whatsapp and messages. I have checked all settings multiple times, hard reset and restored from back up a number of times with no results. I set the notification centre so show on the lock screen just for notifications, but get nothing.
    Is anyone else having the same problem? Is it a bug with ios7 or a bug with the apps?
    Regards

  • Google Talk on iPhone (push notification)

    Does anyone know how to get gtalk on the iphone with push notifications?

    Well, pretty much all the instant messaging apps for the iPhone allow you to remained signed into their servers after you've closed the app, pushing new messages via Apple's push services. However, I don't think any of them are going to let you stay signed in on their server for more than a day or so. I think the free version of IM+ lets you stay signed in for about 2 hours.

  • Push notification settings changing on their own

    I have an iPhone 4 and so does my wife.  We understand how to set push notifications on our phones for different apps.
    On my wife's iPhone, the push notifications for whatsapp and viber keep switching on their own from Alerts to Banners.
    We do not understand why this keeps on happening, time after time.  Basically every time the Phone is powered off and back on again.
    Any input greatly appreciated, thanks

    I've been on Pay As You Go from the start so it's not a contract SIM but there was a little card in with SIM when I bought the phone that said to change the setting to idata as O2 had just changed it, so I did that, but since the data outages that O2 had a couple of months ago that setting didn't work so looking for a solution I found out about changing it to payandgo and that worked but keeps changing back.
    Maybe it thinks that idata is what it should be, but I don't even have to sync the phone to iTunes for the setting to change back to idata, its like O2 are sending a signal to the phone to change it back or something or maybe the idata is set on the SIM and the Phone checks that from time to time and overwrites the way it is in the Cellular Data Network settings screen, very odd and infuriating either way.
    There has to be a way to fix this, anyone have a clue?

  • Delayed push notification

    I'm having a problem with both iPhone 4 and iPad 2 on iOS 5.0.1. As in title, my push notification is delayed by 5-15 min in both devices in both 3G and wifi. Almost all apps including iMessage and mail notifications are delayed. Even FaceTime sometimes don't work although my friends says it is ringing. I tried hard and soft rebooting but still didn't work. I don't have the time to restore my devices with its huge amounts of apps and I'm not sure if it will work.
    My friends are having the same problem. Is it from the device? Firmware? Or from my Internet provider? Please help..

    No, I made sure it is from both wifi and 3G. The mail is the only app that sometimes works fine, but I message is delayed by like 5-10 mins. Umm I didn't say FaceTime is delayed, I said it is not working like there is no Internet connection eventhough it is on wifi.

    Return the iPhone and get your money back. It has been
    hacked/modified/jailbroken and likely cannot be made
    operative.

  • Messy Push Notifications on iPhone 4 running iOS 6.0.1

    Well guys, I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 6.0.1. Initially push notifications for all apps worked fine. I never missed a notification on any of the apps especially Facebook. I even got every notification about friends and pages I have liked on facebook. Recently, I only started getting sound notifications (no banners no alerts) for pages or friends I had subscribed to. Other notifications worked fine like Timeline posts, messages, friend requests, events e.t.c But recently even those notifications stopped working and not only for facebook but a few of the other apps as well. One of the weirdest things was that I still seem to be getting some notifications when my device is an unlocked state. But when my device is locked I am hardly getting any notifications for apps like Facebook and Twitter. Any one here who has encountered the same problem? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    I might do that eventually but right now I have so much app data and  settings and configurations on it I cant risk changing the iOS because i  will lose most of it that way. Isn't there a way of resetting all the  Push notifications settings and preferences in order to get working  again from scratch?
