  • If the data connection is solid, notifications should be almost instant (assuming a properly-written app using the Google push notification service). There are so many different things to check that I would probably just recommend checking for updates (unlikely for a 4a) and then factory reset.

    The really crazy historical way to test for crashes is num/scroll/caps lock. That’s handled by a very low-level kernel driver. If those are responsive, it’s probably just your display (gpu, X, wayland, or something) that’s locked up. If they’re unresponsive, your kernel is locked up. (If you’re lucky, it’s just gotten real busy and might catch up in a minute, but I’ve only seen that happen once.)
