I thought I was the only one waiting/being frustrated about this...
The latest info I could find was this

It was months ago that i tested it after receiving an invite (which was on the friday after signing up as promised). The app is just a log of all you do with your device, like calls and texts, mashed with your location and time... but then your phone already has all those info related to calls and texts, you're probably are using latitude which posts your location to your latitude dashboard, and you probably scrobble your music to last.fm etc.
Also, the app crashed often.

Facebook Places notifications

I'm running the latest Facebook application on my Nexus One using Cyanogen 6.1.1. Ever since the Facebook update, I keep receiving tray notifications every time one specific friend of mine checks in using Facebook Places. I don't get these for anyone else, and I can't find the relevant options to disable it.
Is anyone having a similar experience? Solutions?

Facebook Not pushing Notifications..

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?

No fix yet... sux i knw

mine never worked
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.
From my permarooted 1209mhz G2 with CM7 nightly 6
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.

[Q] sync facebook contacts?

coming from sense and touchwiz, i'm a little spoiled with the built in facebook sync, so i apologize if this question has already been asked before. in my contacts it recognizes my facebook, however whenever i receive a call or text message my facebook pics don't show up. is there a way to get this to work?
Download the facebook app from the marketplace and have it sync contacts.
That worked for me and all my contact info synced right up.

Its what I did, however its when I receive a call or text message the fb pic doesn't show, its still blank.

Yea mine isn't syncing up right either. Picture is not showing up
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
I wonder what I did differently because mine all synced and are running perfectly.
The pics show up in contacts, phonecalls, and texts...
Mine is also working fine. All contacts synced and photos showing for everyone.

The names have to match up mostly.. If not, edit contact> join> find contact.
I had the same issue.
I downloaded syncmypix and it syncs your Facebook photos right to your Gmail account and that cleared it up.

google did it
face book if you have synced with your google account it will work. syncing from facebook was stopped by google because they were not using the right api.
...I dont know if this is in effect on froyo 2.2.2 but it was and was highly publisized with gingerbread.
Of course this may be resolved if facebook fixed what ever google had a problem with.

Facebook sync works just fine in froyo. It was only removed on the latest update of gingerbread and it is not yet fixed.

If the sync worked just fine then we wouldn't be having this problem...i installed sincmypix from the market and it seems to work however I feel that we shouldn't need a separate app to get this to work properly.

The weird thing is that the facebook photo appears when I view the contact from the contact list, but when I view my sms threads, the photo is nowhere to be found. Also, when I use HANDCENT SMS, the photos show up just fine.

thanks for this app.. never heard of it till i saw u post the name of it here. works great on my g2x running gingerbread
slightly different problem.
I recently downloaded the FB app for Android. It asked to look at my contacts in order to see who was already on FB so I could add them as friends. There were at least 10 people I don't know. Obviously I have numbers in my phone that no longer belong to the people I know. Unfortunately I can't figure out how to see which numbers these are and either replace the old numbers or delete the contacts all together.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Google Shopper keeps disappearing after reboot after Gingerbread update.

Have you guys noticed that the google shopper app keeps disappearing every time you reboot you phone and have reinstall it so you can use it again? Pretty strange!
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
I have emailed Google about the issue. It seems it happens only for this app. Strange. If you guys use it, please do the same. I love this app it really usefull.

Same issue here - What is the google address?
Having the same problem you've reported here. I'd like to contact google, but I'm a "noob" and couldn't find a contact address on the Google Mobile website, or on the "Google Shopper" page... Am I missing something?
You can do it from the e-mail link on their app page in the Market.

[Q] Need to trick AT&T into thinking I own a better phone

Just got this new AT&T Avail (android 2.3), which I'm really happy with but its not on the list of supported devices to use with the AT&T Address book. Which I wouldn't give a damn about, if the Address Book wasn't needed to access AT&T's "My Messages" app.
So what do I need to do here? Change the IMEI? Yes, I read the sticky, and no, I will not need lube because I am in the legal right of way, because my device is on the list of supported devices for the My Messages app.
I'm not sure if I need to convince the app ( https://market.android.com/details?id=com.voxmobili.attaddressbook&hl=en ) that I own a supported phone, or if I need to convince the server side that I own a supported phone. From my search here on XDA, it doesn't look like installing that app is going to be a cakewalk either. Even people who do have supported devices have a hard time re-installing this app.
Google does all that for you in contacts!
Just search the market for a good messaging app.
IMHO.

Acquiring a functional AT&T address book* is a prerequisite to getting AT&T's cloud service (aka My Messages). What it does is when you get a phone call or sms, you will also be alerted to that phone call or sms via desktop and tablet. The only way to do this with Google is to use Google Voice. The problem with that is the phone calls are routed through Google voice servers and there is a noticeable depreciation in quality.
I spent quite a bit of time looking for messaging app that will perform a similar function. After lots of searching I found android-notifier. Which isn't a cloud service but that's not the main problem. The main problem is that even though it has an .apk, that .apk is only used to broadcast to your desktop receiver. There is no .apk to receive notifications on other android devices (ie: my tablet).
*For further clarification, AT&T address book is a cloud based app. It can also be accessed from the desktop browser. Same with My Messages
The model of phone in in the build.prop in the android software and can be changed. Sorry not a Developer.
It looks like AT&T should update their app for all their phones.
