No Facebook push notifications - HTC EVO 3D

Is anyone else seeing this problem? I don't get any notifications when someone posts on my wall or anything.

i noticed that also but then i checked under sync and it was set to ONCE A DAY

Yeah but on my wife's epic its instant. Also sync is not push, so the sync time has nothing to do with the notifications. In fact the sync time is just for the news feed

Touch wiz and Sense aren't the same, so touchwiz might have push facebook notifications. Do you have the facebook market app installed?

u need the facebook for android app, the built in fb for sense just updates friend stream and contacts

Facebook app + notifications = fail. They don't work half the time.. Google it. Very very common problem..

It always works on my widest phone the epic and its just the app that does it. I have the app and have all my settings on Facebook.com and my EVO the same as hers. Still it does not work yet it always works on hers.

Do you have Facebook for sense active too? I didn't activate it cause I hated the way it sync'd on my EVO 4G
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App

yes facebook and facebook for htc sense are both on sync

What are your setting for what all is sync'ed cause mine still isn't instant
Also are your notifications instant?

Agreed. Friendcaster is much better. Notifcations pop up, can tag photos, etc...

King Ty so much for your help can I ask one more thing of you? What are you notification settings inside the Facebook app? Thx again

I was about to make a new thread until I saw this.
Anyone else really upset that there's no fix to this? The Facebook app is absolute garbage without push notifications. What gets me is that the app was SUPPOSED to support it a while ago, but it clearly doesn't work and Facebook doesn't seem to be doing anything about it. Funny, because the Google+ app handles push notifications perfectly
I've done a lot of research and it honestly seems as though MOST people don't know what exactly push notifications are. You read a lot of 'well I get them almost right away" or 'I get them almost instantly'. Haha with push you're supposed to get them immediately, no questions asked You shouldn't have to wait for your phone, or the app to sync with Facebook's servers. Facebook servers tell your phone immediately as soon as there's a change.
There has to be something we can do to fix this. Sorry I'm just really bothered by it LOL

I have the Evo 4g and i no longer get push notifications. I though it had something to do with my Facebook account but recently purchases a htc amaze and sg2 and both of those phone received instant notifications. I since returned both so now i am stuck with no or very late notifications.

What is the blue number on People widget?

This is my first HTC phone so excuse my ignorance. I have a page size people widget on my phone I use as speed dial. It's an HTC widget filled with pictures of my favorite contacts and I can quickly call or text someone. But at times a blue number appears on one of the pictures/contacts. I don't know what it means or how I can access any information from it. Any idea?
Facebook updates.

The blue number represents a missed call, txt, or an update from a social network.

Hmmmm, thanks for the responses but it doesn't make sense. My wife's picture has a number 7 by it. She had not texted me, has no missed calls, and does not have a facebook account. I do not sync with facebook anyways. How do I clear it or access it? Any idea?

I assume you have tried rebooting?

It also includes calendar events. I had a contact with a birthday coming up, and it showed a "1" by their name. I do not have Facebook linked to my contacts.
So I figured it out. It appears that anything related to that person is connected to that number. In my wife's case, there were emails from her that I had erased but not opened. Somehow they still show up. As soon as I opened one, the number reduced by one. Silly if you asked me. You can access it by pressing the number and then on the lower edge of the opened menu you can change tabs to see what is new. Whole lotta blah.... Gimme aosp any day over this sense crap.

IMHO the stock email app sucks, switch to K-9. It actually works.
Will do. Trying it now. See what I think. Thank you

Facebook birthdays now in sync with HTC contacts?

I remember a while back ago this being discussed as one of the less important fixes for HTC to make. If you use Facebook and use it to sync contacts the birthdays under HTC's people tab would appear to be exactly one day off. I believe this has been a problem with Sense 3.0 and 3.5. It appears with this new OTA release, this problem has been fixed. Has anyone else noticed this?
Yes. It does seem to be fixed now in the people app. They seemed to always be correct in the calendar app.

Messaging app

I always delete the stock messaging app and browser (among other apps), i use dolphin and gosms but I think deleting the stock message app is keeping me from receiving pictures.. Can someone please upload the apk for me

Not nativly no. SMS/MMS does not work over wifi, regardless of the source phones type...( iMessage will do this yes, but iMessage is not using SMS/MMS even though they do it from the same app. it's handleted totally diffrent, and it's only iphone to iphone, there is no option to get an imessage on an android, it's apple gear only).
I froze the legacy sms app with BT.
Then loaded gosms. No pictures would pass thru. Even after making adjustments in advanced.

I've always been scared to delete stock messaging app
Any phone speed, ram, or other benefit obtained from this?
I normally just leave it alone, and disable notifications.
You can even hide the app in the app drawer if you're using Go Launcher, other launchers may have this ability as well.

No options in notification for latest Gmail app

Hi guys,
I've been meaning to post this for a while, but with the new Gmail app, I don't have the options in the notification bar like you are supposed to get (delete, reply, etc.). I am currently running Viper Rom, if that makes a difference. Is anyone else experiencing this as well?
Seems to only work when i have one new email. Two or more emails and I have to go to the main app to delete /archive etc.

I noticed that as well. If two or more emails that option does not show.

That is really weird. When I first downloaded the new update, it wouldn't work even with 1 email. I reinstalled the Gmail app, and it now seems to work with only 1 email, which makes sense because it could get a bit crowded with multiple emails.
I have the same problem as well. I have removed the app and reinstalled several time but still don't see the options. Quite odd.
