Facebook question - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I don't know what's going on but all of a sudden any notification I get from facebook actually shows up in my status bar. But I dont know what I did for it to do that and can't figure out how to get it working on my gfs fascinate. Any idea what could make this happen?

I'll attest to this. Suddenly this morning, notifications were working. It was odd.

Yes, it is simply Facebook trying to get the Push notifications working. Mine randomly have been working for a couple of months. But only here and there, they are having a hell of a time with it for some reason.

Facebook 1.5.0

Anyone having a good experience with the newest Facebook release? The changlog spoke of push notifications (FINALLY) and chat.
Push notifications still dont work for me and while chat works it only notifies you of a new message in the notification bar, no alert tone..

It works for me It goes off of my notification ringtone

No tone for me but notifies me, chat and likes/comments. Kind of strange. Wish they would add video upload...
Chat is alright

Lame.. I don't understand why we can't have a fully functioning facebook app. Was better than this on my blackberry. So sad...

just a reminder: push notifications is only compatible with 2.2+ (says it in the market description)......so if youre running 2.1, thats your answer. if youre on 2.2, who knows, try uninstalling/reinstalling
I un/reintstalled this morning with no luck.

it was working great for me, however, I reboot my phone and now I still get notifications, but it doesn't vibrate either ringtone. I check the settings and all the notification are on. Any advice?

Text issues

Recently my thunderbolt has been sending 4 copies of the same text message to everyone. Has anyone encountered this problem or know of a fix?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Mine sent a message three times today. Not sure why. Using Go SMS Pro.
This is a Verizon network issue, along with several others regarding the thunderbolt. Hopefully it will be fixed soon .

I'm having a different kind of texting issue.
Sometimes when people text me, I'll pull down the notification bar to reply, write my message, and try to send. But the "Send" button is greyed out! I have to close out and reopen for it to work again.
Are you running a custom Rom or a different sms app than stock?

Yes that was directed at you. For the little time that i was on stock i was noticing that too. I think that it is a bug with the sense text. I disabled everything in stock sms and started using go sms, seams to have fixed it for me.
Sense seems to have some issues updating it's texting widget for me, I'll get the notification for a new sms, I'll go to my widget screen to read it and it won't be there, it's not until I go through the notification bar to read it that it shows up, kinda annoying.

[Q] Facebook App?

Alright...so I just downloaded the Facebook App for my phone, and when I attempt to upload a new status message, the app just force closes itself. I want to know if anyone else is experiencing this and if there is a fix for this?
I am not sure if this makes a difference, but I am currently running on Slim ICS.
Facebook has been...and probably will be the single most hated app ever created that everyone has.
Every single version made never works right.
I've actually sat my phone on to of my router...with all other processes off......and still took 4min to even open the app

Yeah, I am starting to hate it myself now, however, mines does not load that slow. My only problem is I cannot post status updates..and I don't feel like using a web browser to log on and do it.

Friend of mine using samsung 7plus on stock rom also having the same problem..still cannot resolve...if u dont mind..u can use other facebook apps..such as friendcaster..
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwxLDEsInVrLmNvLnNlbmFiLmJsdWVOb3RpZnkiXQ..
i strongly suggest this. its not perfect, but i would say its the best facebook app out there. def better than the default. one major feature that makes it stand out is PUSH notifications for EVERYTHING...not just messages, friend requests, etc.

I'll try it out and see if it would work for me. If not, then I guess I am stuck using the web browser method.

Haha, but mines does not work at all ever since all the updates. Has been really annoying having to log on to FB using a web browser (I use Chrome Beta or Dolphin. Either works for me) and having to update my status like that. Mines does not FC, but only when trying to update my status. Otherwise, I can basically do everything else, just cannot write a new status update.
It seems to work perfect in diferent roms. I been using euphoria for a few days and it works like a charm

Mine makes my battery its biznitch. I'm talking like losing 8% in about 2 minutes. I just don't use it. Twitter on the other hand...
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA
Yeah, I know what you mean about the battery thing. That's why I just stopped using it, and from one of the suggestions on top, used Friendcaster up until when I deactivated my account about 5 days ago. I agree with that person that it is not perfect, but at least it gets the job done.

Alarm clock issue after JB Update?

Hey guys, I am wondering if any of you have experience issues with the built in alarm. Mine sometimes does not tend to ring anymore
after updating to jellybean from att over the air update. It will show up in my notification bar asking to snooze it. When I click on this, the screen sort of freezes for a second and does not open the app. Even when I quit the app and try to open it, it just freezes unless I restart the phone.
Have you try clear data?

I will try that for tonight. It happens very randomly don't know why. I have not had any phone issues or updating issue or any of that sort. Except
for occasional lag but could be due to a lot of music on the phone

I had a few problems with my alarm before the update, but it seems to be working fine now. Just go download another alarm clock app from the market. I know it won't look as good, or feel as good as stock, but it's worth a try If your waking up late for work every morning.

Hey, seems that clearing the data has worked so far. I don't know whether its working because of that or not so still waiting till it hangs again. As for downloading a new alarm clock, that was the first thing I had done. But it seems that didnt ring eiher. So i think this was a problem with the phone having to ring,
Ahh, yeah sounds like a phone problem. I hope you got it fixed: )

If I have time, i will try to compile AOSP 4.3 for our hd2. That is just a MAYBE, since i DON'T really have much of free time.

I have been developing on a less known manufacturer based phones, but i didn't get much attention, so i have quited. Then i was searching for another device, and got hd2 from someone(for free ). Currently im using this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2126053 .
Most stable i could find . Maybe (if i DO have some time) It won't be the best jelly bean rom out there xD
in my op they have a working version for us (alpha version). just a heads up to those interested

So which one do we download (if we're on a stock 4.2.2 ROM).... v1.4 or v1.5alpha2 ?

I'm on the 1.5 and its working. but SMS does not work if you are using the stock touchwiz sms. this is because it wakes the screen when you get a message so that ruins it. but hangouts, emails, instagram, etc work fine for me

mine never had the problem but I'm not sure why yours did though. the Dev may respond on the thread from my op. he seems pretty set on keeping it updated and fixing bugs.

I think the talkback is just an accessibility bug for samsung devices. Only happens when an app is using accessibility.
dev claims to have fixed the Samsung SMS bug. haven't tried it yet.
added several new options. most notably (for me) was the option to use this as the lock screen. went ahead and went premium!
