FB Notifications - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Is anyone else having problems receiving their Facebook notifications on the EvoLte? I wonder if it's the aggressive task manager that's messing with it.

Stop.
No.
The Facebook app just sucks. It always has.

Never liked the FB app much, I turned off notifications, but didn't seem to get any for the first three days when it was set to refresh every so hours.

The only reason why I asked is because I didn't have any issues on my OG evo and my wife's 3d notifications work ok as well.

It's been happening on my EVO 3D too. It's just their latest update. The app sucks :beer:

I just noticed but I'm not getting any. It worked flawless on my 3d. I think we may have to do the bb trick to get it to work again. Thats how I got it to work on my 3d

Tango Issues

Hey, did anyone else with Tango on the old Evo try to set it up on the E3D? It keeps asking me to verify my number, but then it doesn't send me the text :/
My friend and I have both installed this app with no problem. Quality of the feed wasnt so great and the connection wasnt too good as well.

But is that your first time installing it?
I have no problem on verifying the account on the 3d. I also have it on my evo 4g previously.

I got sick of it so I use the mobile site. Much faster in my opinion.
At first I thought it was a error, but I think its for security reasons builtin within the App. It times out after a while so if anyone picks up your phone they can't access it. its like the bank of America atm machines. After your input your code a few minutes of inactivity would bring up a prompt to re-enter

If you don't report it to them by calling in and getting a technical case filed they can't fix it. Also an update just came out with some bug fixes does it still happen after the newest update?

Email widget with notification number of emails

Is there anyway on the Photon to have the Email or Messaging widget show the number of unread emails on it (like in Sense)? I can get a preview of the email's contents, but I just want a number on it of how many there are.
Maybe try this? I haven't done it but it's worth a shot.

Thanks, but I guess I wasn't clear enough. I need it for non-gmail email.

Well you can use K-9 MAIL link it to your corperate, imap,or pop email. It has an unread count icon widget.

I've considered K-9, but have seen too many reports of instability. Sense has a regular email icon with uncount number on it -- why can't there be one for the Photon too?

Lol yea I came from an Evo too..
just loved that Sense,its a no go with the mopho though
I have been using k9 for over a year now and in earlier vs. Yea it had some issues, but the past 4-5 months its been rock solid for me. Even overseas.
There is also another app on the market call email widget pro I think it cost a dollar though. It will give you an unread count widget to your native email apk.
But the icon is so darn ugly

When you say "email widget pro" I assume you mean this one https://market.android.com/details?id=de.foobarsoft.emailwidget&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImRlLmZvb2JhcnNvZnQuZW1haWx3aWRnZXQiXQ.. that I found in the Market for $1.92.
However, it says in the description "* Motorolla (Droid/DroidX/Defy...) only with root (please read additional info on my website! )".
I am talking about using it on a Photon which is NOT rooted. Do you know if it will work on that?

Worst case scenario you could buy it and test within the 15 minute refund window. If it doesn't work just get a refund.

[SOLVED] Facebook contact pics in 3rd party apps - MUST BE ROOTED

Posted for those who haven't seen this yet - install Photo Unlocker (not available in play store - download here).
And thats it.
For more information, check out this Good & EVO post.
This works perfectly. Thank you for the post

It explains it all nicely if you click the link. Short story is it shows contact pics from facebook in other apps besides the people app.

A bit sketchy about installing this right now.
Will wait for more details and/or another solution.
Honestly, this app is perfectly safe. Zero risk.

Perfectly safe, until Google/HTC becomes better friends with Facebook, I recommend using this for all your third party messaging apps.

No one needs to worry about the safey of this app. If you don't trust it, you don't trust the standard SuperUser app everyone uses. The developer is ChainsDD.

I installed it last week and works like a charm.
Excellent! This has been frustrating me for weeks!
Works amazing!

It keeps saying the “contacts database seems to be busy” any help? I am rooted. Is there a certain spot I suppose to install this, SDcard2 or SDcard?

Will this work if you're running CM9 or AOKP?

Go to manage applications and force close your contacts storage, then try again. Worked for me.
I just kept hitting the "check" button and I finally got a SU request. After the SU request, it worked perfectly. This app worked super fast too.

getting a phone next week

And it'll be the Evo LTE or the SGSIII.
I have handled both and like the Evo more. (rocking a Photon currently)
My one question: is there a RELIABLE AND BUG FREE workaround yet for the botched multi-tasking??
If not, I think that will ruin my experience.
Thanks.
Nope, even with everything I've tried it is still crwp when compared to other phones I've owned, specially stock android 4.1.

Wow, not good. You have tried the custom ROMs that are available with the supposed tweaks to fix this?
Thanks.
I haven't noticed it at all. I can leave an application and go back into it 10+ minutes later and it's still where I left off.

I tried multiple roms and so far it seems there is no fix.
For example I was on the web browser. Backed out with the home key to go to home screen. I then went to settings to change my display settings went back to browser and the whole page had to reload and refresh.
My GS2 and Galaxy Nexus was better then this phone in the performance department.
Not to mention after you start installing apps and setting up your home screens the phone just gets slower and slower and less snappy.

Yep. It's bad.
Bad enough that my lte is sitting in a drawer as I use an alpha cm9 build on my evo 3d. Multitasking, background downloads stopping, and overall sluggishness compared to stock drove me away.

Try playing a game. Then get a text, reply and check your email for the hell of it.

Jelly Bean will be running on the LTEVO any day now, which will mitigate the multi-tasking issue. With that said, I've tried both and the LTEVO was the clear winner for me. The Galaxy is way too plasticy for me.

The multitasking will get better with AOSP, I think. Actually, is it possible its because of the s4? Could anyone else using a phone with s4 respond to this? Much thanks.

Nope. Just this phone. I returned this phone due to crappy gps, lag and horrible multi tasking. Having to keep my screen on to download something was unacceptable. I'm on a s3 now and xda app was still on the last Page I viewed yesterday evening and I've played a few games and run a few other apps. Gps is best I've ever experienced on a phone. Hard to say that and Samsung in same sentence lol
One thing I miss is reception though
