Hi everyone,
Is anyone experiencing problems with not getting notifications from facebook?
I can't see whether anyone has written unless I open the fb application.
Has anybody experienced such problems?

I don't use the facebook app on my phone, but I would download Light manager from the play store and use it instead. I had the same problem with the Y! Mail app and light manager helps. Try the facebook app setting and make sure notification is enabled.

I have experienced, not with Facebook, don't use out, but with G+.
I'm thinking out has less to do with the phone, although it's worst, but instead some Google update because my previous device did it too. Even with SMS.

It works fine here. Check and make sure the Notification is enabled in FB settings. Also I hope you're not using any TasK Manager that aggressively close FB.

Found it. The solution was obviouse, but it worked on Galaxy S4 which I switched to G2 from I thought it is a device problem.
The reason was multiple sessions opened in facebook. Which also means that you will not have fb apps properly working on two Android phones.

Facebook App

Hi all,
I download Facebook on windows market.
But when i use it, i dont have any notifications. Does anyone knows if there is something to activate notify message ?
thx a lot
I also have noticed this problem with the Hd2 facebook app, and notice a ton of info/notifications when i log in with my pc that i do not see on my HD2...would be a massively helpful tweak if htc/facebook would get on it!
Also noticed the lack of a proper facebook chat client that is done so well on the Iphone facebook app... ah man!
The facebook app for windows sucks. really needs a massive improvement
just use http://touch.facebook.com for the time being

[Q] GMAIL not auto-updating

Hi,
Recently, my GMAIL stopped auto-receiving mail and will not update until I manually sync it.
It was working fine until yesterday evening.
Any idea how to fix this?

Did you change any settings? I know it doesn't sync as fast anymore when one has the "undo" function enabled, found under gmail settings. GL
I was having the same issue and addidng to that was that I was not receiving all the email. It showed that there were new emails but those were not always appering. Fixed it by wiping data with Titanium.

To my knowledge, I didn't change any settings. Looking at the feedback in the market, I noticed that some of the other more recent comments show the same issue.
I think it was Gmail, not your phone. I had the same problem today. Then I got a bunch of emails all at once.
I'm having the same issue today as well. Probably a server issue.
+1 here, very annoying!
looks like this is a google server issue and they are looking into it:

It appears that Google has fixed this as of 6pm eastern

Google Talk / Problems

Searched but couldn't find anything.
I'm having some issues with Google Talk Client. I show logged in but to my contacts I'm logged off. I am also unable to get messages sent to me.
APN settings are right.
Anyone here having the same problems?

I have the same problem.. Did you found any solution?
Have you guys tried changing your status on the phone? (Tap your name at the top screen and change it to away or something to see if that helps.)
If you log in to GTalk via gmail on the web on your laptop, do you have the same issue? (this will help show if it's a phone problem, or a GTalk in general problem)
I have this same problem, I just noticed it today becuase i was signed in to gtalk and instead of a chat notification i have an email notification because the chat was emailed to me. Hmm... I hope we get a resolution soon..

Not sure what you mean by broken. I have it loaded and can browse around without issue although it is clearly not designed for tablets. I have also not posted anything using the app but can verify that it does install and can browse without a problem.
Won't Sync
I cannot get Facebook to sync. Anyone else have this problem? Application seems to work otherwise.

What do you mean by sync? Like the phone, add it to Accounts and Sync in the tablet settings? It is not showing for me here as it does on my phone. I do not think that will work until we get a Honeycomb version.
EDIT: Actually it does show when trying to "add account" but does nothing.
I can't use the FB widget. It's FCs on me when I drag it over to a screen.
As for FB/Google integration... there appears to be a fight between Facebook and Google. I guess Google patched up some type of exploit that FB was using to merge/link contacts. It's fine for HTC, TouchWiz, MotoBlur... but not with a direct Google experience device.
Just search Google for more info on this. I read only a paragraph or so and got bored of the politics behind it.
If I remember correctly, facebook is now blocking google from exporting numbers/pictures status's.
This was on the news somewhere

It still works on my Samsung Captivate though.
Same as others.. Can load the app and use it however trying to add an account to sych friends, as I've done on my D1 Droid, it blinks then does nothing. After doing this I've found occasionally the actual app then crashes, even with reboot, and must be re-installed to get it back.
I'm sure a native Honeycomb version will arrive in due time.. For now I'm just using TweetDeck which works great for various accounts including: Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare, etc.

Yes they did. Google wants them to use there software to sync thru.

Possible App Sleep Issue

I noticed this on my S7 Edge after it was updated to Nougat and it persists on the S8.
I've noted that apps like Facebook Messenger and Nine (Email) sleep much differently than before. Facebook Messenger will often appear "disconnected" as when I open the app, it has to "reconnect". My email app, Nine, is also not pushing as often when the app isn't open either causing a bit of delay in receiving emails.
Has anyone else noticed their apps not sleeping the same and losing connectivity since Nougat / S8.
I have noticed this too, also happened on my Pixel.
So possibly a Nougat issue then?
Anyone else experiencing this?
Yep, I almost gave up on this phone until I found that you should disable optimization for import push apps. Ever since I did this, no more delays.

Just did this for Nine and Facebook Messenger. Will let you know how I make out. Thanks so much!!
So far, Facebook Messenger has not disconnected when the phone is sleeping. Will be able to confirm Nine back to normal tomorrow once I get a bunch of emails.
Looks like I'm resolved now!
Awesome! That what this community is about.
