Facebook instant notifications

Does your epic have instant Facebook notifications when someone postson your wall or comments on something you posted?

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.

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?
Anyone else getting push notifications correctly?

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.

New Notification

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?

The only app I have installed now that was not before I switched to CM7 is Go SMS Pro. Has anyone had any experience with it?

Go sms pro doesn't do that, but i don't use go fb chat. What opens when you click it?

Found this after a bit of research. Looks like an adbased app on your phone is using their apk. Seems they do support opt out, but aren't doing a good job a securing your identity period.

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.

wats a myspace?

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.

Girlfriend had this problem. There's an app called airpush detector on the market. Download it to see what's causing the ads

Google voice is so slow

Ok, I'm finally making a thread about something that has been irritating the hell out of me. Every time I receive a text from google voice my tablet just freezes. Especially when I have google voice open or the keyboard up and I'm typing something. The keyboard becomes completely unresponsive for about 10 secs. This is extremely annoying because I have to use this damn app to receive texts from my Google number.
I'm just wondering if anybody has the same issue or a slight idea into making the lag better?

I haven't noticed any lag while using Google voice.

GV works fine for me.
However, the one thing about GV that bothers me is that the text messages don't get threaded like the native messaging app. Its more like how blackberry would thread incoming texts back in the day.

Oh Yea, that too! Man that is so annoying. I have like 100 threads but I've only texted 4 different people. And not having batch delete is especially frustrating.

Problem must be situational. I use GV daily, and have not noticed lags.
Just fired it up and sent a test message. Definitely no lag on that one.
+1 on wanting threaded messages and thread delete...

How about if you have Google voice open and as you're typing you receive a message right at that moment? It's when I receive messages that it lags bad.

works fine for me too...

The issue mentioned occurs when there are too many threads in the inbox. I had this issue as well. I could not send texts consistently as they would just queue forever, and sometimes freeze up my phone. After deleting the threads down to like 150 in Google voice, the issue was resolved. Do this on a computer, as it takes a long time.

it could be your internet connection, for me it works well!

[Q] Problems in sending a large number of SMS messages in Jelly Bean

I've trawled through Google and XDA to find potentional fixes on various platforms for Jellybean but I can't seem to remove this on JB. I've tried used GoSMS and alas, no such luck.
I've also got SQLite Editor and inserted sms_outgoing_check_max_count into the secure settings.db and still no success. This is really frustrating me as I do text a lot and I can't seem to find a fix!
Help would be much appreciated.

I remember that on CM10 there was an option to increase that warning till it reaches 1000 under Settings > Security
I hope it comes to CM10.1 because that bugs me too.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

YES! Me too, thank-you for this thread.
I've tried the methods you talked about as well and nothing seems to work on the Nexus 4 version 4.2.1. (updated on Friday btw).
=(
Anyone have any success? I really don't want to use any other apps to text.

I've used GoSms but still had the same issue. The stock app won't send messages to groups which is super lame as I like the simplicity of it.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

This is really frustrating. I sent a text to my group of friends at 7am in the morning and 10 hours later its still flagging the error and its unsent. I can't send any more texts :banghead:
Can someone please help?!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

Anyone had any progress in resolving this?

Not in stock, as Google have done the right thing as to stop rougue apps sending SMSs in the background without your knowledge. OK, there should be the option to turn it off but tbh if you're sending that many SMSs why not just send an email instead? Or call? You'll get the conversation over in 5 minutes!!
My rule of thumb is more than 5 SMSs, call as it's quicker

I have large groups of friends and regularly text a lot on a weekly basis, calling and email is out of the question for such large numbers.
To justify this is madness I tell thee! Point being it's down right ridiculous and it has never been a problem before. I'm having to hit allow for 100+ text and its a huge problem
It takes best part of half a day to get these approved. I've tried everything out there still no luck.

Solution
I was able to use the max_outgoing... trick on my ICS phone but it stopped working on my JB phone. I don't know what's the trick but there is an app on Google Play that worked on my JB 4.2.2 phone - I'm not going to advertise it here but you can search for yourself. Bon chance!

Custom roms dont have this issue, but there is a solution... go find SMS limit remover. Don't remember if it requires root.

What SMS app do you use?

Hey guys. With the new hangouts there are a lot of the features from previous SMS apps missing. Like the quick pop up reply from notification menu and multiple contacts.
I like hangouts and to be honest I'd like to use just one app only. Using Textra and it is awesome but can I uninstall hangouts and just use Textra on its own? What you guys use

I use google voice, barely any improvements, very buggy. But I haven't found anything better for texting thru voice. Also kakaotalk which is very bloated. I want a clean app that has option to send/not send push notifications. Know any?
I'm glad u said Hangouts is mandatory, I hate that. Can't we revert back to an older version and not be forced to use proprietary crap.

Hangouts is NOT mandatory, you can use any texting app you want.

Yea totally not Mandatory I used it for a week or so as my default sms application but then i switched back to the regular that came with the phone.

I use Hangouts. Its functional and full featured. The only annoying thing is that convos with the same person are separated by SMS and IM hangouts.
