Facebook notifications on CM9 A2 - TouchPad General

Anyone have it working? I have it set to 30 mins and have a ringtone selected but nothing ever shows up. Now on my Motorola DroidX2 the notifications work fine. Latest ver of FB. Only thing I haven't tried yet under app management is clearing data and cache. Just looking for confirmation one way or the other whether it works or not under CM9 A2. Thanks.

Is your wifi working correctly? Reason I ask is because my wifi disconnects after like 5 min of me locking my screen, so I get no notifications for email either. Do you have to restart your wifi when you unlock your pad after you haven't used t in a bit?

Wifi seems to be generally ok even after sleep. Once in a while I do have to reset it though. It could be wide awake and not get the notifications. Email, Tapatalk and TweetCaster notifications work fine.

Non-sense toggle data widget

Does anyone know if there is a widget comparable to the sense "mobile" widget, that will turn mobile data on/off, and works with the Eris? I've tried toggle data widget and switchpro and neither of them work. Thanks!

I used to be looking out for one, but I found out I always had one!
I assume your on a vanilla rom and dont have sense? use the control panel. there's a button with a circle and 2 arrows on it.
now this doesn't actually turn off 3g, it turns off active syncing. active syncing is what drains your battery when you aren't touching your phone. so if you turn it of, it will be exactly like if you turned 3G off all together. but! doing it this way, you can open up the browser, and it will still automatically load.
like, if you turn it off, your phone wont be using 3g to constantly check on your new emails, but if you went to the mail application and hit refresh it will bring in the new emails for you.
Thanks, actually I'm trying to convince myself I could use a non-sense ROM. There are many things that I love about sense and the mobile widget is one of them.
I'm on pageplus and only have 50mb of data, so I like to keep the mobile connection off unless I need it for some reason. One time I was listening to pandora over wifi and all the sudden my data usage was maxed out. I believe the wifi radio was turned off after 15 minutes because of one of the phones settings (I've since changed that setting and haven't seen this problem). Needless to say, since then, I've been paranoid.
The suggestion to disable syncing will help but I would prefer to cut the connection completely. That way, any app that might happen to be running in the background (That I no longer need) won't be able to suck away at my limited data. Or, if wifi get's turned off automatically for some reason
Are there any other suggestions?

would that work ?
Thanks rv, I've actually tried that one and it doesn't appear to work on the Eris. Other people have reported the same in the reviews.

I am on page plus also, and i faced the exact same dilemma trying a non-sense rom. I couldn't find anything reliable. I know its not as convenient but what about just pushing the power button for 2 secs and then selecting turn on/off mobile network from that list. I have to do this in sense sometimes because the mobile widget doesn't work occasionally.
For those that are using roms that still have HTC Framework, then a shortcut is to long press the end call button and select the last option. Which is Mobile Network ON/OFF
Atleast that's a workaround but not a complete widget replacement, sorry
Check out beautiful widgets, it's 1.99 but it might have what you need.

Yeah that will work fine, I never noticed that was there... but do the AOSP/Cyanogen builds have this option?

I actually have beautiful widgets, but there isn't one to turn off data.
Just to post an update for anyone interested:
SwitchPro widget works great at least on White Widow. I'm assuming it works on any AOSP ROM. I tried it with a stock sense rom previously and it didn't work for me, so I'm assuming that it doesn't work with sense.

Gmail Google sync issues?

I posted this on another website...but you guys at CDS are usually the best with solutions..do here goes...
Not sure if this is a prime thing, tablet thing or honeycomb thing...but here goes...
I have a huge pet peeve that I slowly discovered...I have my old milestone phone next to me and my prime in my hands...when I receive an email on my gmail account, I get it near instantaneously in my phone...but in my tablet, it takes anywhere from 2 to 15 minutes.
All my sync settings are fine and on...I tried clearing my gmail data..changing from echo to balanced to normal modes..and no significant difference...
Anyone know what may be causing this?
Thanks...
I've noticed the same thing. I'm not sure what causes it. But it would be interesting to see why

Are you using the Mail or GMail App? I have noticed the Mail App does not have "Push" Sync Capabilities to GMail accounts. You can only set polling intervals. Try setting up the GMail App and see if your results improve.
What kind of connection were you using on your Droid? Wifi or mobile data?
Because push via wifi is very slow...if your are on mobile data switch to wifi and test again
I am having the same issue, using the Gmail app on both devices, both are on the same wifi network as well. I hear my phone notification go off but I have to go into Gmail and refresh to get the new emails to appear.
I am using the gmail app...not the email one...I know about the push for gmail, that is why I use it with my phone
I guess it may be wifi since it is a wifi only tablet and my phone is on both wifi and hspa...
Glad to hear it's not only me having/noticing this issue...but kind of disappointed that there might be no fix for this?
If anyone knows, please let me/us know!
But it's interesting that even on wifi we seem to still have the problem...
Yep I'm having this issue as well.
TF201 / XDA premium
My phone is instant. Then Outlook will go off, then my tablet.
Well..hopefully the ics update will help or even fix the issue. Can't wait...supposed to come in February at the latest...we'll see
Other than these little possible adjustments...love my prime so far!

Connecting to DM server

I got this out my phone a few weeks ago when I checked to see if I had an ICS update :thumbdown:
Of course I didn't.
Well now this message "connecting to DM server" stays in my notification bar. It also stays running. I did a check to see how much they battery life it was eating and it was well over 60%.
I tried the settings, manage apps, att update, clear cache but it still ran.
I finally used app quarantine to stop it.
Well now that we may get ICS soon I want the update option to run with out it running at all times.
Anyone else having this issue?

Connecting to DM Server
I had the problem today. Went to manage Running Apps and was able to stop.
If this does not work, did you try rebooting the phone?
I have tried resting the phone.
I even shut the phone off and took the battery out for 5 min.
It won't go away unless I put it in app quarantine.

I'm also having this same problem and have done everything that you've done to try and fix the problem, but it's still happening. Have found a fix by chance? This has been going on for about a week or two.

Load titanium backup and freeze it, or you could delete it too.
I just deleted it.....g
Mine just started showing this in the notification tray yesterday. I can freeze it and the notification goes away, but I don't think we want to delete it though, right? Isn't this how the phone connects to the AT&T server to get software updates? I figure I'll freeze it for a few days then defrost it and see if it fixes itself or connects to the server.

Whatsapp losing connection to the servers?

Basically this picture explains the problem in a nutshell, if I am on whatsapp and I minimize it for a while or if I set the phone to go in standby after around about 10 minutes the phone will supposedly lose connection to the whatsapp servers and not be able to receive any messages. If I come onto whatsapp and check at this time it will basically say I was seen the last time I opened whatsapp, I will not be able to see the last seen of any of my contacts, and not be able to send or receive messages. The only way I've found to fix this temporarily is to toggle airplane mode and then again whatsapp will work until I go to standby or something. I'm not sure why it's doing it it never used to do it a few months a go I'm confident I'm not the only one with this problem I've tried push notifications fixer nothing seems to help it is just losing connection to whatsapp when in standby and I have no idea why.. it's driving my crazy because I'm not getting my messages and people think I'm ignoring them and its just making whatsapp really unreliable .. anyone got any help on how to fix this? !

losing connection with only one contact
I have been using WhatsApp for a long time but lately I am having problems with one specific contact.
Sometimes I am talking with this contact and suddenly it stops, the last seen information also disappears and any message that I send get the one check mark, so it stays in the server and do not reach the other recipient. When eventually the contact comes back any message sitting in the server never is sent.
Nobody loses internet connection and all other contacts work just fine in this same period.
The same problem occurs on her side at the same time. I disappear to her.
None of us block, it just happen during conversations or sometimes we go into WhatsApp and the contact is blank it out with only the name available.
We tried cleaning the app cache, force stop, restart the phone, recreate the contact and not solves the problem. Eventually it comes back, sometimes stay on for a few hours or a couple of days, then stops. Sometimes it stays off for a couple of hours and come back, sometimes it take days to come back.
Again it is only with one specific contact, all others works just fine. This problem starts to happen about 2 or 3 months ago and it is aggravating.
The big problem is the one I need the most and vice versa.
We both use android.
Please, we need help.
Having the same exact problem, definitely frustrating as hell

Notification on / off auto settings

Hi finally got my edge today. Loving it all ready.
I need a way of setting notifications by time meaning the phone auto switches to mute at a certain time on certain days then goes back to on in the morning at a certain time. Does anyone have recommendations please.

do not disturb will do that for you in sounds and notifications
Thanks that's about 90% what I'm after. It would be great to be able to add certain contacts instead of all or favourite etc.
Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
Same here! I don't really use the 'Favorites' feature, but I had to reset all of them so that this feature would work.
There a software name Audio manager pro as I remember, try searching it. Good luck!
Did anyone find a way of using do not disturb to mute notifications? It seems less reliable for third party apps.
There is also Phone weaver, It does everything you said. The only strange issue is when you switch in airplane mode, manually or automatically, only wifi go off, the phone radio doesn't!
There is a trial version too!
