Mi9T not receiving notifications while locked

[cpper225]

Hi,
I have a Mi 9t Pro with MIUI Global 11.0.5 and Android 10. I installed a security camera client app (Reolink), which is supposed to send notifications when my cameras detect motion. If the screen is unlocked, or if the phone was locked only some minutes ago, I receive the notifications as expected (sound and vibration). But if the phone stays locked(inactive) for a longer period of time, I only receive the notifications after I unlock the screen again. Which absolutely defeats the purpose of motion-triggered notifications.

This is what I have already tried:

• Set 'No restrictions' in the App battery saver setting
• Enable 'Autostart'
• Enable all possible ' App permissions'
• Enable all possible ' Other permissions '
• Enable 'Show notifications', 'Floating notifications', 'Lock screen notifications', 'Allow sound & vibration & LED light'

Is there something else I can do ?

Yes, you should use the "lock" option for this app in the app switcher (long-press on the app window -> "lock" icon).

I will try this but I don't think it will solve it. As I said, the notifications are still delivered but only "trigger" (sound + vibrate) the second after I unlock the screen.

Yep, it doesn't help.

After more research it seems that Android Doze messes things up:
You can find more detail in these two long forum threads:

- [Guide] Notification FIX - Works 100%

The only solution for now seems to be "adb shell dumpsys deviceidle disable". Quite disappointing Google doesn't do anything about this.
