They seem to show up randomly for me, even after days of not using the facebook app.

ok how did you set it up!?! i cant access the facebook sync only the one for the feeds and updates...

I've never been able to get them to work.
Installed F Plus (now called Flow) and I never looked back. Photo tagging, notifications (pull, but functional), deleting of posts, etc.

the official facebook app is un-reliable for me
sometimes i get them, usually not.
i also have facebook set to SMS notifacations to be safe. they have been un-reliable too since i got the android.
sometimes ill get the same message from the app and sms or just one... or neither....

only notifications i've ever gotten have been messages and event invites. responses to status updates never give me notifications.

well went to the settings today in the FB app and checked notifications active and i never turned on refresh interval due to battery consumption but now i get my comments/chat/message all pushed to my phone...well its working for me but hope it works for you guys too!

High Battery Draining

So in the last two couple days i've been having a very high android usage even at night. and it's not letting the cpu go into sleep.
Can anyone help me find out what's causing this?

Some device on your network is waking the Note through the wifi. Try sniffing the traffic to find out which and why.

Thank you.
What app do you advise me for the sniffing thing?

go to settings settings>privacy and see if both boxes are unchecked. it does backup of stuff into google server. we don't need that really.

I understand it wastes battery, but my problem isn't related to that because it's ON since day one and i only experienced this drain 2 days ago..
Just reseted the phone and installed apps again it fixes the problem!

Your top three wakelocks are all WiFi related - svnet, wlan_rx_wake and wlan_wake.
Your fourth is sec-battery-monitor - some kind of battery monitor/saver app?
There were lots of cases of people reporting battery app savers/monitors/whatever actually causing notable battery drains, particularly if users don't set their sync policy right.
Let me give you an example: let's say you use some battery saver, and set it to disconnect WiFi when screen locks. Let's also say that you have some app configured to sync at all times. The app tries to connect, but can't, because the battery saver won't allow WiFi connection to be established, so the app tries to sync again and again and again....
And your phone can't get to deep sleep, hence the high battery drain.
Hope this helps.

Dial *#9900# then disable "fast dormancy" and press close.
Monitor your drain over a day and see if its better...

anjath, do you have Scott Adams' permission to reproduce that comic strip of his? I would not post it in your sig if you do not. It would be a breach of copyright, as well as being quite rude.

How to fix RILJ wakelock(:

In the forums i found a lot of people talking about wakelock dealing with RILJ and im pretty sure this should work for you.
Here's how you turn Background Location Reporting off.
1. Go to System Settings
2. Under accounts, select Google/Maps and Latitude
3. Maps will fire up and it should show the Location Settings screen.
4. On the top tap Location Reporting and select Do not update your location.
Now go check betterbatterystats after a few hours you should it go down.

Hadn't read this anywhere else, thanks!

If you don't have maps installed go to settings - locations - turn off locations. If you use google now, weather widgets or apps that require network location dont not attempt this.

I have noticed i have a major drain from partial wakelocks but believe it or not rilj is not my culprit,

Your not turning your data off your just turning off data when the app is closed. turning off locations is just limting certain apps
Not to function properly. not to argue and say it doesnt help i just dont see this as an fix for wakelock.

You go into maps and disable the location for maps.

If you have maps installed. It has nothing to do with a app preventing your phone to sleep.

Normal Power Saving has nothing to do with it. Checkout if you have any apps that control brightness, like say YAAB. I noticed that when I enable YAAB to control brightness, the slider is gone. And when I disable it, the slider comes back.

made it to 10 now, here is the screenshot with the message notification for a non existent message, when an sms comes through it then changes to 2, but back to 1 once I read the message. Hope someone can help.

It could be a bug imposed by the theme.
Sent from my D5833 using XDA Free mobile app

Tried different themes. Still no joy

from what i read this is a bug that persists throughout different android versions and devices, one recommendation is to install a 3rd party messaging app such as Go SMS and to read/delete the problematic message through it,
I cannot be sure that it's working as i cannot replicate the issue on my phone, good luck
