I use flow for android. Its ama
zing at notifications. Set up is similar to fb app. The free version also requires the use if m.fb.com. When I was using the fb for android app I had all my notification settings to be emailed to me. That was I got them faster.
The FB app sucks for iPhone and Android, hell even the mobile version isn't that great...
Mines is working fine
its sad the blackberries facebook app is the Best -.-

Why am i NOT getting a notification in my bar when someone sends for something or replies on my facebook?
Because the Android app doesn't push. Download Bloo and it will push (most) notifications to yo.
that is rediculous! there is even a setting in the android app for notifications. The facebook app on this is a joke compared to iphones thats fa sho
The Facebook app is not that polish. On android 2.1 there is no push notification as noted. I believe 2.2 has this option. Once Facebook updates the app for 2.2 it should include that feature.

the facebook app is pretty lame... the pictures load way too slow
I agree, even verizon or motorola said something on their twitter page about it was the best just to use the browser..lol..
That n the trapster app are my main apps that I use and both work better at the iphone...makes me just want to buy an iphone 2g

its just weird cuz under the facebook settings you can turn notifications on. Why would there be a setting if it didnt work? Anyone who has used the iphone facebook knows this one is lightyears behind........and i didnt even mention the fact that there is NO chat option on this..
I know this doesn't help...
I was pretty sure I had facebook notifications turned off and today I got a notification. wierd.
i downloaded bloo, but as others have said on the app comments, it doesnt work.
My biggest beef with that"app" is the lack of phonebook tab. But there's. About a dozen things I could rant on it... no push updates, no syncing, etc.

So recently i switched from a white mytouch to a black mytouch.. on my old mytouch the facebook push notifications worked perfectly... now on my new black mytouch the facebook notifications no longer work.
Anyone else seeing this problem i googled the issue and its hit and miss on people having this issue.
for those of you that do have a facebook can you go into your facebook app settings and see if you see an option for push notifications. I suspect that for one reason or another the people that download the facebook app from the market place may or may not get a version with push notifications as an option, i could be wrong.
if anyone has a fix for this it would also help
Same here. I got my black MT4G on Fri & mine stopped worked by Friday night.
so it worked at one point for you also then it just stopped working...?
Try pushing Facebook to the system I occasionally get them on cm 7 when Facebook wants to work ... I notice stock espresso has a fusion of the app and HTC account as well cause it only ask me to sync Facebook with the HTC account when I sign in the app

the facebook app is the one i downloaded from the market, not the local system facebook app. it's just weird i have been looking into this and noticed it happen across all carriers that are running android 2.2 devices.
I have had this same issue with my facebook app. My push notifications were working, then just stopped one day. I might get a pushed notification when I open the app . . . and also my widget doesn't update all the time.
Yup, chalk me up to one who's facebook doesn't push notifications through. It worked for a few days...then stopped completely.
Me too not working anymore..

Ive had the same issue.. after playing around and trying a few things out.. ive realized its only when you leave a comment using the facebook app.. if someone responds, it doesnt tell you via email .. If someone messages you, comments your page ect it does email you. If you start a conversation with the facebook app it wont follow up.
If you start a conversation from the PC it does notify your phone but not the other way around. I tested it last night and left a few comments at a buddies page. the following day i went back using the app and later the PC and there were responses, except i never got a notification.
Push notifications has nothing to do with emails lol

I'm having the same problem for the last 2 months on Stock rom and CM7 RC1 and CM7 nightlys. It has to be the FB App issue. I just use the gmail app to notify me about stuff on FB for now.
Anyone found a fix yet?

I've noticed this problem recently only after switching to CM7 from Evil's DHD rom, but it's the facebook app and not the rom?
I originally had a white one and it pushed the notifications but now it doesn't on my black one. And now on the black mytouch I can't use Facebook in friendstream

Android fb app sucks period. G2 and mt4g both never gave me notifications.

Well back to report. I tried pretty much everything I rooted my phone switched roms to several different ones. I also tried to push a stock Facebook app to the phone to no avail. I don't know how to get Facebook to push my notifications again.
More so then anything it's not the fact that I love Facebook thy much it just irritates me that something doesn't work when it use to.

I like the facebook app for android, it's finally getting close to the functionality of the iPhone app. I have one annoying problem though, I want links to facebook I get in gmail to open in the Andoid facebook App. Does anyone know how to make this happen? Is there maybe a helper app in the market that fixes this?

No idea how to fix your problem, but try "Flow" its a facebook app thats has push notifications, etc much better than the official facebook app.

Also try Bloo

Let meknow if you can't find the app, its no longer under development but I choose to believe its the best app that I ever come across for Facebook

Bloo was awesome. Flow seems to be what Bloo could have been. I just wish there was a an intelligent connection between email and the Facebook Android App.
Facebook app for Android sucks compared to the iPhone version. One of the few things I miss about the iPhone.
[Q] Facebook Widget issues
the facebook widget force closes at every attempt to use. I am running the initial build (not update 1 or 2). Is anyone else having this issue? Btw, the app works just fine.
Will not work on mine either
Yeah doesn't work on mine either
This is a stupid bug in facebook code where they pass a null intent and Honeycomb won't allow this. Same issue as Google Voice. Can be fixed, but not really worth it. Facebook widget sucks, and the app is updated often
I can't seem to be able to access Facebook through the stock browser or through the Facebook app. Is this a problem for anyone else or is it just me?
I think it is a Honeycomb and Facebook issue. I have the same issue on the Acer. Use another browser in Desktop mode and you should be fine.

Kinda works for me. I sometimes get redirected to the Mobile site where it just doesn't load the page and pretty much breaks it. Facebook chat lags, commenting photos lag and facebook games lag.
Use Flow for facebook, I installed it last night and works like a charm
I'm using the standard Facebook app and I have no issues at all.

And default browser in 'tablet' view mode. Working fine. Widget for the home screen in the app doesnt work though.
I haven't had any issues with the regular FB app but I use Friendcaster instead. Doesn't have all the features but it is optimized for HC.
Here is maybe a more generic FB question:
I am technically logged on as my real name, but I use my photography bus. as my main account. If this makes sense? I go Account - Use Facebook page as - then my photography bus.
It seems like on every app or on this tab I can't "switch" to use my photog bus. Any idea on what to do here?

Have you tried Friendcaster? It is basically just your news feed but looks better since it is made for tablets.
My Facebook app force closes whenever I try to view "Friends." I thought the latest update was supposed to fix this, and indeed it has on Gingerbread, but it's still happening on Honeycomb.
im using FriendCaster THD at the moment. Works great but the widget is a bit puny.
Hi there.
Altough I've searched it through Desire S forum, I couldn't find anything about it. I've been using Endymion V3.5 ROM for about a week and I can't get any Facebook notifications. I've done all settings on the app and phone's accounts and sync. But nothing happened. All other social network notifications works perfect e.g. Instagram, Foursquare, Twitter. Just Facebook resists. Wondering is it about ROM or anything else? I've started using Facebook after I've installed this ROM btw. I haven't been using it since 2009. Thus, I can't say anything about my previous use.
So is there anything I can do about it?
Thanks for your help.
Did you install Facebook and Facebook Messenger? Notifications are working again since I uninstalled the extra messenger..

It didn't work, I get a friend request but there was no notification even though I installed the messenger app. Any other ideas?

It's the app. The push notifications don't work.
@john, I've read yours wrong first. Messenger app wasn't installed. Nothing changed.
@fini what to do?

You could Try the App " Friendcaster ".
Just login with your Fb credentials & allow the app access to your Fb profile.
The App has everything you need, from notifications.... To Syncing your Fb friends list!

Friendcaster didn't send notifications either.
Now I'm wondering is it because I've cleared all notifications for mail.
