Foreground service killed in Doze mode for some devices like oppo,vivo,MI, etc

I am using a foreground service to track the live location of the user. it is working fine in stock android devices, but in brands like oppo, vivo, Mi etc, the app is killed when the device comes into doze mode. I also tried to use FCM notifications still of no use. I am just wondering has Uber or Ola been able to crack this, bcuz i have seen most of the drivers have been using these brands. How are the able to keep their app alive in doze mode?

Thank you so much guys, for your responses. I would like to tell you that I wrote an email to google support and highlighted the issue to google support, in reply they mentioned below reply: "Thanks for reaching out.

It seems that you can’t receive a push notification on some Android devices. Upon checking the affected device, it is affected by a device specific (known) issue, and it's caused by OEM features for battery optimization. When the app is swiped away, in some of OEMs which has implemented such a feature, the application is treated similar to "force-stopped" mechanism and services registered with the app that's swiped, is stopped.

For now, I strongly recommend contacting the support team of those affected OEMs to help get it resolved from their end. You can read more about this issue and a possible way of solving it in this blog post(https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/why-your-push-notifications-never-see-the-light-of-day-3fa297520793/).

you need enable auto start permission for apps in oppo , vivo and mi

try below code worked for me

 private void keepServicesInChineseDevices() {
        Intent intent = new Intent();

        String manufacturer = android.os.Build.MANUFACTURER;

        switch (manufacturer) {

            case "xiaomi":
                intent.setComponent(new ComponentName("com.miui.securitycenter",
                        "com.miui.permcenter.autostart.AutoStartManagementActivity"));
                break;
            case "oppo":
                intent.setComponent(new ComponentName("com.coloros.safecenter",
                        "com.coloros.safecenter.permission.startup.StartupAppListActivity"));

                break;
            case "vivo":
                intent.setComponent(new ComponentName("com.vivo.permissionmanager",
                        "com.vivo.permissionmanager.activity.BgStartUpManagerActivity"));
                break;
        }

        List<ResolveInfo> arrayList = getPackageManager().queryIntentActivities(intent,
                PackageManager.MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY);

        if (arrayList.size() > 0) {
            AppDataHolder.getSession(MyApplication.getAppContext()).setPermissionForChineseDevices(true);
            startActivity(intent);
        }
    }
