Has anyone been able to get Facebook push notifications to work with the leak? They are supposed to be working worth 2.2 and higher. I also am aware that the Facebook app its less than perfect.

Mine are hit or miss. To be more direct, for the 15 or so notifications I had today, only once did they get pushed to my phone
I was thinking the same thing. I haven't received one push notification yet.
yeah im not getting any either
how do you set notifications to push? only setting i see is 30 - 1hr - 2hrs - 3hrs - 4hrs

The whole point of push is instant. I know that they only work for certain things. Trying to find out exactly what they are at the moment. This would be the only thing I miss from my BB
I think the only things that get pushed is whatever is listed in the settings which are: messages, friend requests, and event invites. There's no option to turn wall post on and off so Im assuming it doesnt get pushed
On my wifes droid 2 there is a "Push" option listed where you have the 30 minute, 4 hour, etc choices. I have tried 3 different roms, Kaos, aosp, and several of the dl30's roms and this option never shows up on this phone. I do not restore my FB settings each time either, but totally reinstall it.
From reading around on facebook it seems that all the Galaxy S phones, even those with offical froyo, do not have the push option. It seems that overall the support for the push notification on FB is not very good and that tey do not work on a lot of phones currently.
I've received them for those mentioned by jepr0x11, but not for other notifications.
I don't believe android supports a true push like blackberry does, although I think 2.2 does somewhat implement push...pretty sure fb just polls the server at a time interval set by the user tho

Yup Perfectly
Yeah the Facebook push notifications have been working for me perfectly! On eclair (2.1) they would never go through and i would have to manually go check if i had new messages or things like that but now with this Froyo it works perfectly! But at least for me its the same as what "jepr0x11" said.
I wish our fb app was as good as the one for Iowa but judging on how facebook and google have been bumping heads, I don't think facebook is in a rush to upgrade their android app. Is that a run on sentence? Haha
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Its not an issue with DL30 rather the FB app that doesn't support wall post notifications. Had the same problems on OG through DL09. All other notifications work as normal. All we can do is turn on email notifications and hope for am FB app update.

Has anyone else started getting Facebook push notifications??? I haven't updated the Facebook app since a week or two ago, but as of last night I started getting pushes.
Anyone else?
I did as well and mine hasn't been updated either.
i haven't gotten any except for a random chat message that i got while i was still online on my computer.
I did as well. Either EC05 fixed it or Facebook tweaked something on their end. I did a double take when one popped up lol

Wasn't EC05 since I am still on EB13.
I was using Flow to get my notifications but last night I updated to EC05 and all of a sudden my fb app notifications started pushing again. Maybe they finally got their act together.

I wonder if sprint had them turn off the feature because of dk28 being leaked (remember it worked at first) and now that there is an official non-pulled version of Froyo (since only 2.2+ supports push notifications) they turned it back on... just a thought.

Are you expecting it to notify you of Likes? It won't.
Otherwise, there's nothing to set AFAIK. I did turn off the update interval though.

Its not supported yet which is a joke. You only get notified of messages and event invites.
I wasn't getting the facebook push and neither was my husband, but after updating to E05 we are now getting the push notifications. We also had an update from facebook so I am not sure which enabled the push again.

I just downloaded SyncSms. Work by synching your tablet and phone via dropbox and works very well. Can text and browse on my tablet for only 3 bucks!
Sent from my A500 using Tapatalk
curious
Let me get this straight. You download the app on both your phone and your tablet?
Is there any lag between sending and receiving txt's?
Interesting in purchasing and trying this out.
Yes, with android phone as well as a free Dropbox account (I have the Evo). you dl the app to your phone and sign into your Dropbox account and it automatically sets the device to "phone" then you do the same to the tablet and it recognizes it's a tablet. You have two options for synching, there's a manual refresh button, or what I do is set the "auto sync" feature to every 15 seconds (pretty close to instantaneous). I have seen neglible battery difference on the phone or tablet. Sent a few hundred texts using this method and not one issue. Well worth the price,and you're talking to a guy that has actually purchased only a few apps.

Does your epic have instant Facebook notifications when someone postson your wall or comments on something you posted?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Nope. Also have a lot of issues with being notified of a comment but when I open the app it says I have nothing. Tweetdeck workedfine for a while but I got tired of it.
Sent from my Epic 4G via Tapatalk
Yes, I've been receiving push notifications from the Facebook app. Didn't think they had em since there's a refresh interval setting, but apparently that's for everything including your news feed I suppose. You get push notifications as long as you have the "notifications" box checked in the settings.
Professor did you come from a blackberry to the epic by chance?

Nope, came from the Samsung Instinct... lol, hella lame phone.
While it really doesn't make sense to me, this is the experience I have had.
Facebook notifications work wonderfully for a few days after I flash a new ROM. They fizzle out and stop working and I forget about it. Then I decide to flash a new leak or SRF comes out with a new version and all of a sudden they work again for a few days.
I don't know why that would be, but it happens every time. I stopped trying to understand and just live with it.
honestly... stock, rom, whatever, I could never get FB notifications to work. is it because I have it being autokilled?
I would have no idea since I turn them off to save battery life. Actually they do work until one goes off after I flashed a rom. Then I turn them off.

My girlfriend has had 2 Blackberrys and I recently got her a Desire and the only thing that bugs her is how she used to get instant notifications from her Facebook app and now she doesn't. The only things that come to her phone as notifications are event invites, friend requests and messages. That's all I get other than through my email as well.
Didn't even know FB pushed notifications. As of now I get notifications to my gmail.
Mine just started working correctly a few weeks ago. I get an instant notification when someone posts, comments on my wall, or sends me a message.
Not sure why it started working but it did..
I'm not sure, but I don't think Facebook uses C2DM. If they do, then they really, REALLY need to fire whoever does the coding for it because it sucks badly.
Edit: Apparently they DO use C2DM, they just suck ass at implementing it.

There is currently not a Facebook app in the market. They haven't optimized it for Honeycomb yet, but you can get it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1143913&highlight=kanged and that should work. The only issue I have with it, is that the friends list part force closes.
They must have recently taken it down, thanx for the link tho

There is actually a Honeycomb/Tablet edition, though in beta...
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.handmark.friendstream&feature=search_result
Works well for me, and definately less crashes than the native Facebook for Android app...
I've actually gone so far as to uninstall the official Facebook on my Vibrant running CM 7. With the last update on July 18th, for some reason, even if you set it to never poll for notifications, never refresh, and not to sync, it still keeps the news feed open in the background and constantly refreshes it. I noticed huge battery drain one day when I took my phone off of the charger, barely used it all day, and later that night around 11 I had 14 percent battery warning. When I looked into the battery history, Facebook took up a whopping 81 percent of the battery drain on that particular charge.
Will stick to using the 3rd party options.

There are a lot of apps that you won't find in the market because they haven't been optimized for Honeycomb. I normally just install them on my phone, pull the apk, then transfer it to my tab. So far every app I tried worked just fine including fb and google voice.
Friendcaster for Tab seems great to me, but it loads continuously when I select the messages tab, not showing anything... if that'll be solved, and chat will be added, it will be the perfect FB app for me!
PS: anyone solved the messages issue?

Mine does that with messages too, and yes, chat is a must. At least chat works on the Facebook app though. That's about the only good thing about it. While we're on the subject of honeycomb apps and notifications not working; how hard is it for Words With Friends to get notifications to work?! Is it really that difficult? I play a word and THEN it tells me it's my turn.

My Messages tab does that too, as does the Events tab. Very annoying. I really hope a new beta's released soon. I sent the dev a PM about it but haven't heard anything back yet.
Strangely enough, I've seen a walkthrough video of the app (on Android Central I think) which showed them using the Messages and Events tab both working fine.
EDIT: New beta just released fixes the Messages issue, but I still have problems with Events.
I've been running CM7 since the last "Alpha" release and have it updated with the Oct 22 update. I don't recall exactly when, but I started recieving these "optout" notifications. I don't know if it's related to CM7 or something else, but they're not cool at all . Does anyone know where they're coming from or how to stop them?

I'm not going to click those %^#$%#$%#$ Spam messages... I clear all the notifications. The only features of Go SMS Pro I use are SMS & MMS. I don't have Facebook, Myspace, Google+ or any other "Social networking" (Read: Stalking) crap. Want nothing to do with any of them. Any ideas how I can track down where it came from? I've looked at the installed apps and services with Titanium Backup and nothing stands out. Unless One of the other apps got 'updated' to include this new 'feature', Go SMS seems the most likely suspect at the moment.

Although I usually have 150-200+ apps installed at any one time, I started getting those annoying little "notifications" almost as soon as I installed the free version of the IPhone keyboard. Not cool at all...
How often do they come up? Is it at a predetermined time or is it random? A relatively easy way to narrow it down may be to look at market reviews of suspected apps.
