Chatty does not work after suspend mode

[user641]

Hello, I have been using chatty for jabber, but there's this thing that after the phone goes into suspennd mode, the incoming messages cannot be decrypted. Is there a fix for that?

Hi, I think the issue you're experiencing is related to the way that your phone handles background processes when it's in sleep mode. When your phone goes into sleep mode, some apps may be paused or even terminated to conserve battery life, which could be causing the issue you're experiencing with Chatty.
One possible solution you can try is to go into your phone's settings and make sure that Chatty is allowed to run in the background, even when your phone is in sleep mode. This will ensure that the app can continue to receive and process incoming messages even when your phone is in a low-power state.

What Chatty version are you using and could you describe more detailed what happens?

Are incoming messages not decrypted completely after suspend or will you see them if you reboot?


(Upper answer does not help you because you can't leave anything running in the background with PP when you suspend. It just suspends all expect modem )

Unfortunately it looks like your options are more or less these:
Don't use encryption
or
Stop using Chatty as xmpp client and use Dino instead
or
Build latest Chatty from git and hope for the best (but expect that it will not work so you wont get too hyped )

There are several issues open and it seems that encryption is not working reliable
