[Q] is there a Facebook notifications etc. widget?! - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have a widget which i can put on my s3 mini to post a status on facebook etc. but i don't have any widget which shows me if i got new notifictaions messages or friendrequests, despite i see a "1,2,3 etc." number on the normal facebook icon.
Do you know a widget like that? And if not, could maybe somebody develope it (maybe?)?
Thank you!

Thank you, also thank you for your "thanks" which you gave me

Well, so I myself tried now these widgets... some of them are only for cash, and all of them want full access of fb (obvoisly)
If there would be anyone who could just sort of extract the usual notifications-bar out of facebook as widget it would be very cool...

hello
I have found a Flip clock widget that actualy flips!
Its not actualy on the market but you can get it from 4shared.If you want the link you have to email me. My email will be on my profile!
Because XDA wont let me post links becuase i am only a new member.
You can download it from your phone or from the computer
(If you dowload it from the computer you need ASTRO or any other file app)

After the update, you need to log out and then log back in for changes to take full effect. I prefer to uninstall completely then install the updated version, it avoids the bugs.
Once you've done that, it will no longer ping GPS when viewing the news feed

Use friendcaster, a friend of mine has it and no complains, i personally use the mobile site, and have an app to upload pics and vids to fb, and fb notifies me via gmail, works best for me no issues

A lot of Android apps love to keep tabs on you and are constantly gathering location, personal, or contact data info. That's why I use LBE Privacy guard app, it allows you to deny permissions that go along with downloaded apps

They are trying to make it closer to the iOS version (pull to refresh...etc). And the iOS Facebook app pings the GPS every time it refreshes the news feed. Not totally sure why.

Yeah, I forgot, location based updates are something Facebook is doing now. Weird that it's wrong for you though. I never update my status enough to notice.

Social widget syncing

It worked for me, but I felt it wasn't necessary. The UI was too basic to really use compared to the full version of the same apps.
Thanks for the input but do you have a suggestion for me?
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
I had to return here for suggestions (so I get notifications), I get Linked and Facebook. When I go to add an account, I see them (checked because I have them) and I see Twitter (Not checked because I don't use it).
I want to add Google+ and Yahoo. Even when I am up and chatting on both of them, Social will not show them to add. I am clueless!

This is EXACTLY why I use this Widget. I work in IT and have done so for MANY years. I had Yahoo IM @ 12 years ago, @ 4 years ago I started with FB, This June, I got Google+. The last 3 years I have traveled the world with job, some friends are on Facebook, some on +, some still on Yahoo.
I have 760+ contacts, everyone keeps asking "Whats up, what have you been up to?" I cannot possibility answer them all, except with Social Networking, weather they want to read it or not. One post, everyone is happy.
Now, Like you stated, If I want a more personalized experience, I go to the app it's self.
Thanks everyone but the problem I'm having is I don't get anything on the widget and all it says is add an account.

[Q] Stock ICS Email Links?

I just spent 20 minutes searching the threads and can't find my answer, so I thought I would take a chance and make a thread about this. If there is a thread about this, I apoligize in advance and I will go and crawl under a rock and hide! I'm just curious Why are all links in our emails not clickable they are just text format, I found something about this in a different site but I think the expertise in XDA is far superior, IMO so I don't trust anybody else...Thanks in advance.

Just to elaborate on my original post, what I found on the other site was that someone said that the legal team at Apple is what caused us to lose the ability to click on links in our email, which sounds stupid....

Yeah I don't use stock email app since gmail is my only email :/
That's weird... Google has been slipping lately
But to elaborate on your elaboration, if the legal issue was true, why does Gmail allow it? Is HTC in the meat grinder deeper than Google maybe?

With all the bs apple is doing to keep their competition on lockdown just so they won't get out sold, you can't really blame htc, best option would be to find an alternative email app as you previously said, though to be honest, I only use the default because I'm too lazy to configure my school account on the hotmail app.
I have the same issue.
Rooted and Flashed my Amaze 4g Telus yesterday and now on ICS.
Can't click on any links in emails and that's very anoying since i have 3 email account link to the phone and have plenty of links in them.
Anything that could help to bring back that feature ?
It's a no go, thank apple for that.
I don't think that's the case cause i had ICS on my Desire HD just before that phone and the links where still there.
I figured it out you have to go into settings, then send & receive, and change the mail size limit. The default is at 5kb, which is only text. If you change it to maximum size it will even show pictures. You have to reset app after you change the size limit so it takes effect though.

Nahh. I was just browsing appbrain market and saw facebook home then I bump in to this thread and I just want to tell the op that you don't have to download fb home from xda anymore you can find it on g play but I'm wrong it is not yet compatible with desire x.
Lol I don't need facebook. I don't need to post my pictures etc so the world can see. I don't need to tell my friends what songs im listening to and what videos I just watched. I don't need to post pictures etc of places that I visited etc. No sir I'm not into that Bull****. I like to live my life privately

I second you. It's a nice app to try.
But I couldn't stand the retarded comments and ridiculous photos shared by my deluded friends.
Uninstalled it immediately
p.s. If someone really wants to stick with fb home, then you better ask your dear friends to share HD pics. The low resolution ones don't look good on the device.
