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?

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.

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 -.-

Friend Me for Facebook.. i think its awesome it basically looks like the gmail layout but for facebook

I've found friend caster to be better than friend me. Friend me doesn't seem to update as well, also friend caster allows sync of contacts

Or get google + and make life 10x easier

[Q] ChompSMS / Facebook for Sense 3.5

Hi. Been using ChompSMS since i got the phone but since upgrading to 3.5 sense roms, contact pics no longer appear in the SMS list inside Chomp. It has to have something to do with the removal of Facebook for Sense. Any ideas how to fix this (other than reverting to 3.0 roms)

The facebook for HTC sense does exist but now it is built-in into the facebook for android app..
Just download facebook for android and everything is gonna work
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App

Sorry should have been clearer. I have the default facebook app and this syncs everything that previous Facebook for Sense app did. EXCEPT ChompSMS contact pics. Even if i click sync facebook pics from within ChompSMS it opens a facebook page with an error.

Maybe you have to cync them manually the first time

Same issue with WhatsApp...probably related to the apps...they'll need an update to read the contact pics from the Facebook app I'd say.

Use an app called photo unlocker from the market. Sorted everything from viber to whatsapp for me.

[Q] Facebook Notification Problem

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..
Tapa2 desire s

It didn't work, I get a friend request but there was no notification even though I installed the messenger app. Any other ideas?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA

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.
