I haven't heard anyone ask, can I get notifications and text thru Pinger on watch? Can it be rooted? Also I've heard some say you can't get facebook notifications but then seen a video of a guy rooted his to get that, twitter, and internet. I mostly just want pinger, phone, voxer, fb & twitter and maybe words with friends. Can you and if so point how? Thanks

There is no "Menu Button", but when you are in an application, there are standard options that are applicable and allowed for that app. These options can be accessed via the three dots at the bottom right of the screen within in the app.
If you are taking about a notification alert like in the BlackBerry, NO. You do not get notified when someone posts on your wall. If I am not wrong, no other FB app for a smart phone has this feature except for BB. But you can always sign up for an SMS alert or an email alert when someone posts on your wall. I guess you would already know that.
Yes, you can check your FaceBook inbox from your phone and reply.
I really like the FB and Twitter app on WP7.
Hope this helps.
OMG thanks alot I didn't even know they had twitter. Also how exactly do I check my inbox for Facebook. I don't but for some reason my phone doesn't notify me about anything and I have all notifications checked off
Download the Facebook app from the Marketplace to get the full Facebook functionality from your Windows Phone 7.
As for notifications, push notifications for Facebook are not yet available.
Thanks alot btw is there anyway to get the led notification blinking for more then just missed calls? That's the only time it seems to come on for besides low battery
Help please.. I was told that my phone has been sending sms messages to my friends on my contacts list. Without me knowing it, of course. What causes this? Any help would be appreciated.
You have obviously installed some app that has permissions to do this. Go though the most recent installs, and uninstall any that have the rights to send messages and see contact information.
Look at the sms's sent and see if there is any clue there, too.
ok thanks for the quick reply.. But how about some apps, that came already installed on the phone, I cant remove them.. Also some social apps, like the facebook and yahoo messenger.. They have this permissions, is there any way to unable the said permission? thanks!
Preinstalled apps won't do this.. Neither will facebook or Yahoo Messenger.
ok.. because those pre-installed one's also has reminders like those. So its safe for mo to re-install fb and ym?
its safe to install fb yahoo .
What are the contents of these SMS? Is it like a butt dial SMS or are your friends getting strange advertisements and links?
Sounds like malware.
uhm, they were receiving txt messages that I have already previously sent them. I mean older ones..
anyone? who has the same problem?

Yes, I had this. For some reason the texts were marked as unsent, probably because I have bad cell coverage at home. On a reboot they were all resent, regardless of if they had been sent.
I started using GO SMS and I have not had the problem. I also updated my kernel, but I cannot imagine that was the issue.
I also rooted the phone and killed off the bloatware. Perhaps it was the social hub, which I have now disabled.
could it be the "sms popup" that i installed? I installed it for me to be able to reply much easier to person texting em. Its like a pop up where you can already see the message and reply at once..
I looked at the GO SMS, I saw that it also has a reminder that it allows the phone to send text messages on its own.
Whats the best messga widget do you guys use? Thanks!

Not impossible. I think I did use that to, but the GO SMS has a popup of its own which seems better.
There is also a GO SMS widget that works quite well, I find. I prefer the popup and an unread message count shortcut.

I'm trying to get toast notifications for when I get a facebook message but even though it's enabled in the settings, I still don't get them (this is all when I'm not online on the messaging hub). Anyone else seen this problem before?
If u r not online, how do u expect to get messages?
If u mean u do not get messages, just because u r not IN the hub, then I would have no other idea what might be the problem.
basically for me Facebook chat has been broken for several weeks now. I started on Windows Phone 7.8 and it still happens on Windows Phone 8. I can not get Facebook to reliably deliver me messages to my phone, neither via the messaging hub nor via the facebook app
It's really annoying, I can not get it to work properly.

I'm talking about the official Facebook application. There's an option for Toast notifications for FB Messages but it doesn't work, all the other toast notifications for that app work though.
Sorry, I do not use crappy apps, especially when every basic thing can be done via the Me, or People Hub. So I find the existence of Twitter, FB and these kinda apps redundant. Why the hell would u install things u already have implemented in the OS?
But that is just my opinion...
Sorry, that I cannot help any more.

Do you have an alternate solution to Facebook messages aside from being online on the messaging 24/7?
Negative. Since everything I need from FB is embedded in the system I am in no need of such apps. And any other app that has features that are already a part of the OS itself.
Hi all. Was just wondering with notifications, is there anyway to view each notification in full? For example, if I get one text from one person, I can read the entire thing, but if I get 2 or more texts from the same person, they are all grouped together and you end up only seeing the first few words of the text. This is even more noticeable for whatsapp. Is there any way to solve this issue? Thanks.

It all depends on the app supporting wear
Latest couple of whatsapp versions support wear and show each individually (can even reply via voice)
I would like to see more that a title of an exchange email but I think it has something to do with exchange.
It is the same if you have a Pebble, Gear or Android Wear, with Gmail you can read the email, with exchange you can not

It all has to do with how the notification gets delivered by the app itself, nothing to do with the watch
Hello guys.
I hope someone knows the answer to this because I can't find any information anywhere about it.
When I get a FB message on my Urbane all I get is a notification that I have a message. Ironically, there is an option to reply, but if you can't see the actual message while would you reply?
The notification for whatsapp messages on the other hand, includes the actual message as it should be. Messenger may well be the only app that doesn't do this.
On my Samsung Gear S Android, FB messenger worked like whatsapp, but I sold it before I could apply the Wear update to see if the issue is related to Android Wear.
Anyone else have this problem?
Thanks.
