I’m having an issue with some apps performing background tasks ever since switching to LOS21. Some apps, e.g., K-9, F-Droid, and yr.no, do not perform the things they’re supposed to do in the background. For yr.no, it doesn’t even update the widget unless I manually start the app.

Other background apps, like Signal or Threema, work fine.

Did Android 14 add some settings that I need to switch on (or off)? I enabled the things I know about, i.e., allow background activity for those apps in their settings, as well as allowing unlimited data usage for at least some of them, but that doesn’t seem to have helped.

PS: Writing this, it appears to me that the apps that work, to the best of my knowledge, use push services, whereas those that don’t work all seem to use pull-based approaches.

stock camera has been fixed in 2024-08-14 update

That’s the update I’m running since the 16.8., so unless it has been hotfixed since the, there’s still a bug.

Since MicroG update of August 15 I often encounter global system freezes followed by a crash of “system UI”. Last time it append I suspected my phone to be running out of RAM and I think I catched “Android System” using 3.2 GB of RAM in the developper options (I’m not sure because it felt buggy, this was the only app listed). After a restart I have 1.2 GB of free RAM.

Also, I could hardly run multiple apps : TrackerControl (background tracker blocked) was killed, Spotify can’t run while using Firefox, …

Does anyone have similar issues ?

I did recently. I do not have MicroG thought,
Had to restart the phone to make it usable again.
But it only did happen once.

After the update yesterdag I can’s call anymore. The call will start bij is disconnected after 30 seconds with the massage “No Service”.
I have a FP3 with Lineage 21 and update yesterday.

Somebody has a fix?

I moved your post here, there’s a higher probability to get your issue sorted out here in this specialised topic.

Yes, but only with RAM consuming app like Pokemongo… using it for calls and take picture is not a problem.

Is it only for me that the notification led stopped working at some point (except charging)?

92

I can confirm that problem with the notification led. When i am turning the feature off and on in setup it works until a sytem restart.

The update from September 4th seems to have cleared up the issue where I was only getting some notifications. I’m getting at least mail notifications again, and widgets are starting to update as well.
