Not receiving Facebook text notifications - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I thought I'd start here.
I'm on CM 7.2 RC1
even though I've set up my facebook phone notifications, I only receive occasional ones. If someone comments on a status or photo, I'll get a notice. But if a friend invites me to an event, I never receive anything. Not sure if this is a FB issue, a CM issue or an Android issue.
Almost forgot: I have teh latest Facebok for Android app in case that's relevant.

Anyone experience this issue with Exchange on 2.2?

I am using the built in email app to connect to my Exchange server and I have my phone with me at work like most people.
What I experience is a message will come in to my mailbox, instantly I get the notification in both Outlook and the N1. I will read the message in Outlook, decide to keep it (mark it as unread)/delete it (move it to deleted items) and the N1 will keep notifying me via Trackball glow that I have an unread message even though I've read it.
If I read or delete a message on the N1 it is always pushed back to the Exchange server (and consequently Outlook) immediately.
Anyone else experience this? It is okay when I am not near Outlook, but when I'm in the office it is very annoying to be alerted about messages that I've already read or deleted.
This type of behavior is not happening on my iPhone 3GS when I had it connected and this type of behavior does not happen for my GMail account on the N1.
I actually believe the update to a message from read to unread may actually get pushed to the device they just don't clear the notification. I can confirm this by going in to the mail app and I noticed all the changes I've made are up to date.
The issue seems to be that the notifications won't auto-clear on the N1 once the changes have already been pushed to the phone. This really sucks
Can anyone confirm my findings? Thanks
I can also confirm this. The notification has to be cleared manually. Once the notification is there it's there until you acknowledge it.
Froyo, Desire, they all do that. Notification doesn't clear automatically apparently. Would be nice if it did. Once a check of unread/read is done, just clear the alerts once open/moved etc..

Google Mail notifications will clear automatically so it is definitely something they left out inadvertently. I hope they can fix it soon.
I switched back to my iPhone for the time being because of this. Does anyone know if there have been any attempts to fix this issue in 2.3?
Thanks.

Facebook Notifications not working? Possible real Fix...

Hello.
I was having trouble with the facebook notifications not working in 1.5.2.
I tried to uninstall/install the app
Clear cache
Installed 1.5.0
Re-flash ROM
etc etc etc...
And nothing worked.
I logged with a friends Facebook account in my Captivate and Push notifications were working !!
I re-logged to with my account and notifications still not working, so WTF?
So I started to mess around with the Facebook settings, privacy etc, and nothing helped to receive push notifications...
Until I deactivated my account and re-activated, and now I have notifications back! Is like a hidden setting in facebook that tells if push notifications are enable/disable, and after re-activating my account in some way is restores it, no idea but is working now...
If you have this problem, give it a try!
To deactivate: Account->Account Settings->Deactivate Account
To Activate: just log in.
Best Regards
Trying it now ... I've tried everything else... hope this works ...
EDIT: HOLY MONKEYS BATMAN IT WORKED! I'VE HAD MY DINC FOR 7 MONTHS NOW, WITH PROBABLY 12 DIFFERENT ROMS, AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IT HAS EVER EVER WORKED! Thankyou!
Details:
I just flashed the newest version of Magnolia with Clockwork 3.x. Clean slate wipe (other than sd).
I deleted the old version of fb that came with the rom (just from the app list in settings), cleared all data from that....DID NOT set up facebook for HTC Sense when doing original setup of phone right after reflash.....
Logged onto FB from my pc, deactivated, waited until I got the email, then logged in again.
DL latest FB from the market and set it up, asked someone to comment on a status, and voila, fb started notifying me EVERY TIME someone did, not just every 30 mins like the settings show...
YAYAYAYAY!! I'm so happy now! I'm gonna pass the word along.
Thank you!
Did it work for you?
Yes - see above edited post!
Or just log in to fb, register phone and check boxes to receive SMS alerts. Faster than the 1 hour intervals.

My notifications are popping up in real-time. The only thing that goes once hourly is messages or friend requests, as far as I can tell. I'm watching my facebook on my computer and my phone alerts me nearly at the same moment my pc does.
umm... ??
deactivate my facebook account? message posted day before april fools day...
something doesnt add up
You can do that without deleting your profile. I hear of people deactivating it everytime they log off for privacy concerns. When deactivated you dont show up on any of your friends pages or searches. Just log on to reactivate, you'll get an email welcoming you back.
you dont loose anything?
Nope. Not that I know of. Check out cnn story. http://articles.cnn.com/2010-11-12/...ngs-new-facebook-facebook-accounts?_s=PM:TECH

You have 2 weeks. If you don't login for 2 weeks it'll close. You can login again and it'll cancel deletion

I cant deactivate account as there is a business page attached with some development app attached.
Is there a modified app I could try?

Issues with Android 5.0.1

Hello everyone.
I've updated to 5.0.1 and I've been having issues with updates basically I'm not getting notifications for my Emails or WhatsApp or any other app for that matter, i have to manually go into my apps to get my notifications. For example, once I go to my WhatsApp i get my messages all at the same time (iOS style) and also my emails, I have to go into my mail box to refresh to get my emails. Is this an issue or i'm missing something in the settings?
I searched before starting this thread couldn't find anything.

Sounds like you need to do a factory reset. Always good with an update anyway.

tell me, are you using greenify? i had the same issue for a day, until i found whats causing it. i never greenify my apps with notifications first off. greenify has a setting to keep notifications, when i enabled it i stopped getting any notifications. as soon as i disabled it and rebooted, i got notifications again.
I just did a factory reset and it seems that it has solved the issues so far so good.

No Hangouts notifications

I've had this phone for a few days and I've noticed that if not getting any notifications for Hangouts. I have to constantly check the app to see if I missed messages. It's the only app that's doing this to me. No problems with any other app. Anyone having this issue?
YES!!
It's pretty annoying because I am missing a bunch of google voice texts because of this.

I've noticed this as well -- but it seems to happen when I leave Hangouts as the active app on the screen when I turn it off (or it times out). If I go back to my home screen and out of Hangouts, then I get the message notifications.

Odd that a core Google app would have this problem when no 3rd-party app has done it. But Hangouts is due for an update anyways....

I saw this for the first time today when I picked up my nexus 7 and saw I had a google voice text from several hours earlier. Opened hangouts on my phone and saw the text had been received, but I couldn't remember seeing a notification. It then happened again a couple hours later. I've had the phone since Thursday and been receiving hangouts notifications until this morning.
I've been having the same problem. Has anyone seen a fix

I thought it was an issue with the ROM I'm using and/or the kernel. But as it turns out my girlfriend, using a Stock, Unrooted T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Avant, isn't receiving any hangouts notifications either. It seems it could be a bug across all hangouts apps. She has android version 4.4.2. And hangouts version 2.5.81636427, same as me.
Same problem here, 100% factory. Noticed lots of texts a day after they came in with no notification.
so everybody thats using greenify, and doesnt have hangouts greenified, there is a greenify setting that many enable) but will prevent you from getting a hangouts notification.. the setting is to have greenify notify you if you get notifications. turn if off and dont turn it on, as it will prevent you from getting hangouts notifications.
I'm not using anything like greenify. Running a custom kernel but this problem seems to happen regardless of kernel changing.
MMS Bug Again
I'm starting to think it's related to the MMS bug creeping back in again from the Developer Preview.
If you go into Hangouts and try to edit your Access Point Names, you won't be able to because the menu drop down isn't there
I'm having the same issue. I'll hear the hangouts messahes come in on my Nexus 5, but nothing shows up on my Nexus 6 and I have to manually scroll the conversation to eventually get it to update (when I finally updates)
It's within the settings of SMS from the Hangouts app.

Did you read the rest of my post @dawad
Yes, I did, which I responded that it's in the SMS settings from within Hangouts. APN doesn't appear if you select your hangout account, but is in the settings menu of Hangouts>SMS.
I'm seeing the same issue on my stock Note4, I'll not hear any verbal notification and don't see any visual notification, only way to know a text is received is to open hangouts and then I see several new texts.
Has anyone found a solution yet?
Same issue, I'm going to try what Simms suggested.

Delayed/Absent WhatsApp Notifications in Pie-based Custom Roms

Hello there,
I tried several Android 9 custom roms from the local xda rom forum and faced an issue with WhatsApp notifications in all of them.
When I use the phone and receive a new message, it shows a notification for it properly, I also get notifications in the lockscreen if the phone was used like 5 minutes ago.
But as soon as the phone is unused for like 15 minutes and I wake it up, no WhatsApp notifications are shown (notifications from other apps are), neither in the lockscreen nor after I woke it up. I then need to open the app manually, only then I get all new messages and corresponding notifications at one blow.
So far, WhatsApp is the only app where I noticed this problem, notifications from other apps like Telegram and Gmail work without trouble and as intended.
I always do a clean flash, don't use any customizations and set up WhatsApp freshly. I also excluded WhatsApp from Doze in the battery settings, but this didn't solve the problem.
In MIUI and other Nougat-based roms, I don't face this issue. I didn't test many Oreo-based roms to give a report about them concerning this issue.
I'm not sure if I do something wrong or if there really is an issue.
Do WhatsApp notifications work for you without problems?
Or do some of you also face this issue? If yes, were you able to fix it?

Gmail and Telegram works fine for me, there is no issue with that. but i have issue with Instagram direct message that it does not shows until i open app but other notifications such as comment,new following are shown properly but i think it is a bug with Instagram since other notifications working fine.
