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.

Anyone get it to work on EB1.03? I know it works on CM7 but it's still waaaay too buggy for me right now to use as a daily.
Doesn't work on the leaked rom either. Doesn't even give the option in the facebook app to sync contacts.

If you read up about the launch of the Nexus S and Facebook, you will see this is because Google removed the sync ability of Facebook. Google is pissed because Facebook displays it's contacts in the address book without storing it locally. Previously, Google gave Facebook special API access to the contacts app, but they have removed it as of Gingerbread. Facebook will have to update their sync so it adds it to the shared contacts of the phone.

I've tried to export all my facebook contacts to SD card and import them from gmail contacts on my computer.. but still no luck
Anyone have any ideas?

Google removed the ability in Gingerbread, use something like SyncMyPix if all you need is contact photos. If you need more than that I'm clueless.

Is there a reason that when you slect a contact and choose any of the options History, Activities or Media.... nothing ever shows up under those menus?
I thought it was supposed to sync with your SMS and facebook and show recent messages, sttus updates, etc.? And I do have my contacts synced with Facebook.
is this a breoken feature when running a custom ROM? Or am I just missing something?
Thanks for any info!
Anyone on this??

You have to sync with the integrated facebook sns and not through the facebook app from the market. If you go to add account you will see facebook under the integrated accounts header.

I am synced through there as well. As, even if I wasn't linked with facebook, I should still be able to see call and text history with my contacts... that's not showing up either. Thanks though...
Anyone else?

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

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.
Since a couple of days I have no notifications when I receive a Facebook chat message. The app works normally.
I updated to 2.3.5 and didn't root.

Hello, I recently updated my infuse to CM 10 and have been mostly enjoying it.
I have one huge problem however, which is that I can't sync my facebook contacts
I don't fully know why. I can get my gmail and g+ contacts, but not my facebook, and seemingly, more than half of my original contacts came from facebook (I'll be sure to fix that).
I need a fix to this, if anyone knows what to do to get it working. I'm not sure why it wont, I've tried redownloading the fb app, deleting its cache, and even removing all phone contact accounts and re adding the, but to no avail.
Can someone please help?
That has not worked since ICS. It was disabled by google I believe..
You can try Liquid Smooth which has a hack to allow fb sync.

There is also Contact Sync for Facebook in GooglePlay that can be used.
Try friend caster. It has some cool features that the Facebook app doesn't have
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
if you ask me that contact sync feature is a huge privacy violation. having the facebook app give facebook your phone number, and anybody who also has your phone number can see you in the freind finder on their facebook app. when started seeing people i used to work with and other people who i had no buisness seeing their facebook account in the "people you may know" or whatever i deleted the app and let a few of those people know who probably would want to stay anonymous so that they could do the same.
at this point i'm not sure why i still have a facebook. but i probably wont for long. google+ is no better. i'll stick to the traditional google services in the future, ya know the ones that only allow me to see what's going on in my life.

This one doesnt sync phone numbers which I find pointless. It will however bring over all your friends as contacts to your phone with their pictures attached... still pointless if you cant call/txt them.

Friendcaster has a built in fb to contact sync and from what I can see that doesnt import numbers either.
