Not receiving facebook notifications - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey peeps,
I upgraded from my galaxy s3 to my xperia z2 about 9 months ago everything was working fine until Facebook updated there app to work with lollipop and since then the only push notifications I've recieved are from a couple of game requests and very occasionally from a post I've commented on.
I've cleared all my apps on facebook cleared my apps cache cleared the data uninstalled and reinstalled the app, logged in and logged out checked all the notifications are active on both the website and my app my sync is on on my phone and i've toed the app in with xperia for Facebook and without it.
Any one know how I can fix this, my wife has a z3 compact and recieves all her notifications she even gets a little number on the app icon to say how many notifications she has.
Many thanks
Andrew

I'd like to know how to make this happen on my phone... hate that the Facebook app runs in the background

Turn off built in calendar notification

Hi,
After installed Jorte on my X10 mini I receiving every calendar notification two times. Is it possible turn off notification from built in calendar?
Best wishes
ArekS
I don't get a notification from jorte, don't find the setting :-/
but I got several notifications from the default calender, every time again if the calendar and calendar.bridge app is closed by android duo memory reasons (and if the event is still running).
This ****s me up
anyone else with this software bug?

I get multiple reminders as well, and i don't know how to change it.. extremely annoying!
I don't have a clue how to go about fixing it either.
Did anyone find a fix for this?
I use all day events (like birthdays or anniversary) and that notification will not go away it keeps coming back each time the notification is cleared and I can't figure out the setting that makes it stop (other than deleting the event?)

Same here, had that problem on 1.6 and it hasn't gotten any better using 2.1
Drives me nuts.

Same here, plus the Sony Ericsson Calendar app sucks.
Why can't we have the default Google one? It's much better!
For viewing and adding events you should try TouchCalendar, it provides a great overview. Unfortunately editing and viewing details of events doesn't work on Mini Pros.

DO anyone of you guys know if Jorte update directly from google or from the SE calendar and will there be any problems if you remove the installed calendar.
"Unfortunately editing and viewing details of events doesn't work on Mini Pros."
This problem is solved in the new vision 0.9.11 But I get double notifications is there a way to solve this?

This thread explains how to remove the stock calendar, which would almost definitely solve your double notifications dilemma.. maybe a bit extreme though!

If you remove default calendar Jorte won´t be able to sync with Google.
I've been using my mini pro for a few weeks now and I too have noticed the weird behaviour with the calendar reminders (i am using Jorte too).
What's the correct procedure for dismissing a reminder? I don't really know if i've just been snoozing them.
I pull down the notification bar and tap on the reminder there and it opens the event in the standard calendar app; does this actually dismiss the reminder?

[Q] Facebook synch issue

Hi;
Since yesterday I keep getting notification, saying that it can't synchronize with Facebook service. It asks for making another authorization. When I click on it Facebook app says that "Sony Ericsson Xperia application already has permissions. Click ok to continue". After I press it, Facebook app closes... and that's it. 1 minute later I get the same notification about synch issue. I've already tried to reset Facebook app, logout and login, changing synch settings but with no effect.
Also I'd like to add that actually I have no issues with contacts, photos, timescape or callendar synch with FB. Everything works just fine.
I'm running on 2.3.3 stock ROM and few days ago I made FB app update.
No big deal afterall, still help would be appreciated

I just deleted the facebook accounts from ' accounts and synchronisation ' in the settings menu. After that is stopped bugging me.
Damn, I didn't expect so many folks to have the same problem. I assume it must be some kind of problem with FB service then.
And it's really annoying to see blue icon on your notification bar every time you unlock your phone!
I have a diff FB sync issue. I tell it to sync only with friends in my contact list, but it just syncs all my FB Friends and adds them into my contacts. (Which is the same as if I say "Sync All")
Yahoooooo, happy to know I'm not the only one....
Damn it, sad to know that so many people are having the same issue...
Oh well, hopefully it has something to do with a possible FB app update, to make it look like the web FB in mobile view, since the Iphone has got it already...
got the same problem, did someone found a solution? its really annoying
i'm on wolfbreak with doomkernel
Aparently its widespread issue with all xperia models, theres a growing topic about it in the SE facebook page
Its very annoying, my fone is harrasing me

I fixed it by going to facebook(browser), privacy settings, apps, removed my x10 from the list
Then from the phone in accounts and sync i removed the main facebook accounts(fix gets removed atomatically) and adding my account again
Just got the authorize message twice and after that i havent seen it again since yesterday

Apparently the problem solved itself. No notification today. The phone works fine.
^^ yep, it seems authorization issue got solved globally.

[Q] Facebook notification issue

I'm sorry if this might be a repeated thread but I just couldn't find the solution to this problem after going through number of posts here.
So the problem with my Neo is I am not able to get push notifications for my facebook wall or when someone likes my comment. Though I'm able to get notification for friend's request and private messages. I just can get my Wall notification. I've made sure that it is enabled in the settings panel of facebook android app. I've tried logging into my facebook account using blackberry that has worked for many but didn't seem to be working for me.
So is there any other way out.
And yes I've also tried deactivating and then reactivating my account, still no success.
please help
thanks
Have the same problem before.. Unistall the update go back to the first stock version, then login using the old version after you login then update yo the newest version and try it. And remove your facebook inside xperia account, it Works on me

Go to account settings->notifications and check your notifications settings.

[FIX/SOLUTION] Facebook push notifications not working .. AGAIN (2013)

For awhile, my Facebook push notifications were working just fine until I had updated to Jelly Bean. I tried everything.. to clearing cache, data, uninstalling, and even the BlackBerry trick again (worked once before) and couldn't for the life of me figure out why they weren't working anymore. I thought maybe it was Facebook clashing with JB. I read everywhere and found out some people had no issues and some had some where every push notifications didn't work and some just Facebook.
Well I spend a day or so trying to figure it out and finally found a new, simple fix.
1) Open the Facebook app.
2) Tap on menu button on the top left
3) Account > Account Settings
4) Apps and Websites
5) Clear out Facebook related apps (Like Friendcaster or HTC Sense)
6) Clear data on the Facebook app and launch app
I noticed some off the apps in there have a push notification toggle button and I believe it was messing up the push notification system of there was to many to keep up with.
Once I spent 20 mins clearing those apps out, I cleared data and started the app notifications started working again. I didn't know it worked until someone wrote on my wall and I was shocked to see a notification!
I really hope this helps some of you out who have gave up looking for another fix.
If you're still not getting notifications, I'm sorry =(

Clear all those apps in that Facebook apps list.

Yeah, done that. Doesn't help
Sounds like all your notifications are broke. This is a fix just for Facebook while others are working.

After a whole day of looking around, here's the solution: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20120318142032AA1GpzE (quote below). As a step-by-step:
1. log out of your Android Facebook app
2. clear app data
3. go to facebook on a PC and then account settings → security settings → active sessions and end all of them. (not sure if that's necessary, but it wouldn't hurt)
4. Log out
5. Now log in on the Android app and enjoy push notifications.
If you are logged into Facebook on a computer or other device, then your android phone won't sync, one way is to hit the social network widget and tap view all updates, then click on the refresh button, that is what I have to do to fix mine if I am logged into the computer, or you can just log out of facebook when you are wanting to use the phone.
This was caused by the latest update from Facebook's Mobile App, and unfortunately it affects not only facebook, but also twitter on the social network widget.

I have just tried this, along with uninstalling Facebook, Facebook Messenger, and Friendcaster. They used to work perfectly. Now, they don't. I ess running the stock TouchWiz but now I'm on CM10. Could that be the problem? I will select the C2DM in Friendcaster, go through the process of entering my email and password, then nothing. It used to say that the registration was successful. Now it doesn't. I will then exit out of everything then go back in to check and the selection will be back to periodic polling.
it worked! Thank you very much!
Actually Solved
I have had this same problem for over a year now, they wouldn't work on my iPhone iPad android phones or tablets. It has nothing to do with resetting anything, clearing caches, reinstalling or restoring. There is an app that you have connected to your Facebook which has blocked your notifications.
Head into your Facebook app and click on account settings, click on the apps button and turn all platforms off. Close the app in your multitask by double clicking your home button and closing the app from there. Get someone send you a test and bam.... Notifications I never thought I would see a Facebook notifications ever again! Head back into your settings and turn platforms back on. Your apps will be gone but once you use an app and connect with Facebook everything will be there again. Worked with Cydia and all my paid apps were in my account again!
Hope this works for everyone to get their notifications back!!

If the problem is caused by an app, yes, it would. But for many that's not the root of the issue, so it's not correct to say it has nothing to do with… Anyway, thanks for contributing with a new solution.

No probs, but I have read through so many forums all having the Same problems and people always giving the same answers, restoring whole fone, getting new fone, updating software, clearing caches, reinstalling the app blah blah blah and the solution I have found fixed mine and many other devices, friends and other forums. So generally it's an app that they have connected to fb that has conflicted with notifications. Instead of going through 1 by one which I tried and everything else, turning off all then starting from scratch completely restored mine and brought it back to normal!

Hi
Found a solution that worked for me so thought I'd share here.
I was using FB 1.9.1 from an old Titanium Backup I kept on my Sgs1 and after setting up Zeam launcher and disabling some system and memory hogs like Google Play Svcs I thought I'd give the newer FB app a go.
Sure enough I stopped getting push notifications.
However rest of notifications on phone kept working, email, gtalk etc.
Then it occurred to me the push notification system might prefer to send notifications to the device rather than the account.
By which I mean every android device had an Android ID supposedly linked to the physical device itself.
I thought of this after noticing that whenever my phone should be popping up a notification that I just sent to mu account from another GB accpunt, namely a chat message, OS monitor would always show a peak of activity before relaxing again and nothing actually happening.
The rush was already happening when notifications were still working.
(I had previously used the newer fB app before and did get notifications to work.)
So i had a close look at Titanium Backup Account settings, and my Google Play store settings, and found out both were *not* using the *main* Google account my phone is linked to.
After which I set both G Mkt and Tit bkp to the right main Google account and immediately after, I updated FB app through G Market.
Hey presto, notifications came back!

This Worked For Me
I am assuming that anyone with this problem has at one point rooted and installed Blackmart, AdBlock, AdAway or Freedom. If not this may not work for you.
I installed Root Commander then went into \System\etc and deleted the hosts file. Using lucky patcher I cleared dalvik cache and rebooted. Then I factory reset my phone and VOILA all push notifications are now working after nearly 4 months. I hope you get your phones working without having to flash your ROM.

I had the same problem, i could not receive the push notification on my nexus 4 and also on my ipad and i think i finally figured out how to correct that. took a minute. log in on a desktop browser check your email notifications: It needs to be at least "important notifications". After that you should be able to open the app and select what kind of push notifications to receive. i am sure that will not help everyone as there are different things that can block push notification but it's still something to look into.

gTalk notifications - no Talk app installed - Weird

Hi
I am having a very weird problem.
I am using IMO for Instant Messaging and so i removed the TALK app from my Nexus one (running Oxygen Rom) using Titanium backup.
Recently there was an update in TALK app and i wanted to try it (Hangouts) so i installed it from the playstore. It was very slow on my mobile so i removed it again.
Now i am getting Talk notifications (with the old TALK icon) in the notification bar. along with the IMO notifications. When i click on the Talk notifications it does not open any app. and the messages that are notified by TALK are missing in the IMO app so its very frustrating.
So i thought it must be the HANGOUTS app and re installed it from the Play Store. Now i get Hangout notification, Talk notification and IMO notification.
Its very annoying. I removed the Hangouts app from the Application Manager and i still getting the TALK notifications.
Please help me get this Talk Ghost out of my mobile.

That is quite bizarre you could try reinstalling the Hangouts app then wiping its cache and data, then uninstalling it and finally rebooting it. Another suggestion would be provided you don't have Talk/Hangouts app installed as a system app is to boot into recovery and perform a factory reset as well as wiping the data and cache partitions. Also re-flashing your current ROM should fix the problem.
