Twitter supposedly has push notifications. How the heck do I turn them on? I'd like to know when I get an @reply without waiting on sync.

I thought push was always enabled? The normal interval sync still does what it does but I thought push was forced on you?
I just downloaded it and looked and yeah there's no option for push...confusing. If you want, you can PM me your twitter handle and I can tweet at you to test it.

Push isn't working then. I get a txt message that I got an @reply but no notification from twitter itself.
I've turned off the txt feature so can someone hit up @gunnyman so I can test?

The protecting part yes. The notificationsetting is in the Twitter app itself.

This has to just be for the app though. I have Twitter for Mac installed on my laptop and @mentions get pushed to it immediately even though my Twitter is still private.
Also, I'm using TweetCaster Pro on my phone and I didn't get a push notification from your mentions. I don't even know of TCP even supports push yet though...so don't read too much into that.
Yeah just the Twitter app and ubersocial are the apps I've used that support push. Boid doesn't yet.

There is a problem with protected apps in this update for some reason. I'm working on it. A build.prop change back to the old fingerprint doesn't appear to fix it, but that doesn't mean it can't be done.

Hey all. I've run into an issue where my phone refuses to download Facebook from the market.
I'll click to download and it begins the download process but it terminates at approximately 45% every time. I don't receive any error prompts or anything, the download just stops and disappears from my notifications.
Any chance anyone could post the most recent version of Facebook for me and I coud see if sideloading it would alleviate this issue?
Try installing sgs tools and then clear your market cache.

in case anyone does need the latest facebook APK, here it is:
Facebook v1.5.2
Facebook v1.5.2 is pretty buggy and does a lot of FCs on my captivate. I wouldn't recommend updating your FB app if you haven't already.

I get push notification now with facebook. I didn't get it when i was on CM7 but after switching to continium 4 i started getting notification ... weird.
I wasn't getting push notifications myself and was using flow for like a week. All I had to do was change my current facebook email to the gmail one I made when I got this phone and everything is working properly and notifications are actually arriving on time.
as you know fb is no longer on the market, i thought i would put a working apk for yall to enjoy. be sure to add thanks!

Thanks for this OP. I was disappointed that I couldn't get fb to work anymore without using the browser.
I installed it without uninstalling my existing fb app first and it didn't work. It FC every time I opened it.
After uninstalling and reinstalling again, it now works like a charm.
Gave "Thanks"

Does anyone know if this means it will add sync for facebook contacts? Kinda missing that on my TF.
EDIT: Welp, I might as well should of just installed it to answer my own question. I did. It synced my contacts. Now I can post pictures to facebook.
This definitely is better for chat than the browser but I don't think it will notify correctly?
Anyway, thanks for posting the APK!
Me too. If I click Friends its going to FC. anyone else having the same issue?
Hi All,
First, I wanna say that you guys are so freakin awesome! I've been an xda lurker for a while, but figured it's time for me to join and interact with my fellow HTC Sensation-ers.
It'd be a good chance for me to contribute to these forums, as well as getting some help for my Sensation problems. Glad to be a part of you guys now
Question: Why doesn't Facebook for Android push notifications work on my Sensation 4G?
Background Info: Private Messages in Facebook get pushed, but regular notifications (e.g. wall posts, comments, likes) do not get pushed to my device.
Went into facebook settings, and everything it's at its default values (never touched a thing). Notifications are on.
Other information pertaining to situation: Background data is ON. Always-On mobile data has been tried on and off. Same results both ways.
Can you help a brotha out?
Thanks, guys! I look forward to being a part of your community.
I read that if you sign in on a blackberry it fixes that for android due to a permission that Facebook for bb gives. I don't know if its true but worth a try I guess

Hi fr0zenblood75,
Thanks for the response.
I also have read that before. I actually went far enough to borrow my friends Bold 9780 without him knowing
Alas, it did not work
Does every Sensation user have this issue? Or am I in the minority with this?
Also, I've restarted my phone, factory reset, uninstall and reinstall app....nothing works.
Facebook kinda sucks. You try another app like friendcaster?

It sucks that the Facebook app is garbage
I guess the developer has no incentive to get the app working properly for everybody, seeing that it's not ad-supported.
All good now, huge thanks to Joser1309 for the modified blur-services.apk that made this possible. go thank his post in here. Sorry it took so long to post this, I kind of forgot about it.
Only works on Deodexed roms for now
Please also answer the poll at the top honestly
What is this?
I have reworked phydo's original source for the cheesecake app we have been using and made it quite a bit faster to use than before. I have also cleaned up and commented the code a bit for those of you who want to take a look at the source.
How to use
It is very important that everyone on here is checking cheesecake as much as possible. Hopefully multiple times per day.
To use this first flash the attached zip with our bootstrap CWM recovery, then install the app. Click the button to go to the next server and check for an update. if you get a wifi error, that server is down. Most will be. select "skip setup for now" and go back to the app and click the button to go to the next. Continue to due this until you get through all the servers.
What to do if you find an update
DO NOT INSTALL IT!!!!
Instead download it right away so you don't miss it, then copy it out of /cache with a root explorer app or use adb to pull it. Upload it somewhere and post it in a thread or PM me and I'll get it to the right people.
What's next and other Ideas
This app is not done. I would like to make it even more automated if I can figure out how. If you have any ideas on how to make it continue after failing or getting an update please share.
I also think we need to get more organized with our Cheesecake checking. Maybe organize time for everyone to check so we can cover the whole day. Let me know if you think it would be a good idea to create a google calendar where everyone can put the time they will check, so we can all check at different times. Any other ideas are of course welcome as well.
Source
Please PM me if you would like the source code. I have no problem giving it to people, but since it is not entirely mine, I want to know who I have given it to.

It seem like i got a hit on almost every server ( your device is upto date) * i never get this lucky*
Coincidence?
I kinda zipped through it, so I'll check again.
It still seems odd that i got so many hits.......lucky i guess.

I've been getting wifi errors on every single server since I went to scv6, so I don't know, but as long as it is "almost" every server that tells me that it is changing it correctly so I guess it is working. If it was every server I would suspect that it was not changing properly.

Just tried it... every server is ostensibly up and running and up to date- even servers that are down with normal cheesecake.
Could you add a check for update button that doesn't change servers in the case of "Check for update unavailable.." messages so we can recheck the same server?

So, no more manual select for which servers, right? This app will just go through the list one by one if a server is down or no updates are found? This will save a buttload of time, thanks for working this!

Used regular cheesecake and went back to yours and it is wanting a wifi connection on all servers. It is telling me it is switching servers but like you said it may not be.
