FB Chat heads - Wow - General Topics

Anyone else blown away by the persistent chat heads on the updated FB Messenger app? I never used to like my FB messages pushed to me, but this is just too mind-bogglingly fun to use.

Yes i agree:thumbup:

I should tell you that this isn't facebook so that you could put "what's up with the new messenger!" We all know it!

Facebook app and chat

I have try to find a real god app to facebook and a facebook chat app but those who is there now is **** sorry to the dev who made them but they are not god, i was hoping here that some dev could take time and make a nice facebook and facebook chatt app.
It'd probably be helpful to find out what you do and do not like about the chat/app, and not just say that they're crap.
AOL on the market does facebook chat. no AOL account needed
ebuddy works pretty well for fb chat

Droidbook

Hello, I am currently working on a app called Droidbook. Why? Basically I was tired of getting 1,000 email notifications from facebook but I wanted to be notified, I was tired of filtering my the facebook email notifications, I was tired of not getting a sexy little task bar notification ( I know I know, use bloo), most of all I grew tired of all the other OS's having a fully working facebook app. So heres my shot at it, but please. What would you like to see in this app?
very interested in this.
i have the same complaints with all the email notifications.

[Q] Facebook Push Notifications

The Facebook Push Notifications doesn't work for me. Chat is working fine, but not comments, Friend requests and so on!.
Does it work for anyone here with Facebook 1.5.1? If Yes what are your settings?
Android 2.2.1 DHD Leedroid 1.5.1a Facebook 1.5.1
it does not work for me either ...
I haven't had it working for me either..I will get notification bar updates but no push notifications.
damn it ... I think they removed this function.. but why? What is with a downgrade.
Should be 1.5.0
Yep, it's been quiet for a while here too.
It has been quiet my end as well for some time.
I remember we used to get them
Does anyone have the Facebook 1.5.0 version, I would try this out!
I tried it with fb 1.50, too.
Doesnt working either!
My understanding of Facebook push notifications is that they SUCK!!! Sorry about that. When normal people think of push notifications we think of notifications of things we actually want to be notified of like wall posts, comments, likes, etc. Unfortunately for us when Facebook thinks push notifications they think about pushing us notifications for things we don't care about like event invites and inbox messages.
I don't have much in faith in facebook in that we will ever get push support for all notifications :-( It seems to me that facebook's strategy for android will be to integrate features into the phone instead of delivering a stealer app people. This means working with OEMs as they have been as of late. I don't think we will ever get a useful app from facebook.
Currently I think Tweetdeck provides you with the most comprehensive facebook notification support and when you combine that with the actually facebook app all notifications are covered I believe. The only downside is that Tweetdeck is poll driven.
I used to get it for comments, wall post, inbox bla bla..
now didnt get it anymore.. oh well, thats fine... it's not like my world will end without push noti anw
I think 1.5.1 broke or disabled the push notifications feature.
flow
Have you guys tried facebook flow? I just installed it testerday. I has the option of utilizing gmail push notification to send/recieve facebook notifications.
Ive liked it more and more since I have installed it, and the push works great
Yeah man. Sad that Facebook not going to deliver an application for android users. Sigh..

Any IM app that is PUSH technology rather than Pull? Besides Gtalk.

I believe both beejive and trillian use push notifications.
trillian is half the price of beejive and if you use trillian's desktop or web app you can have your im conversations on your phone synced to those products.
beejive on the other hand saves your conversations to your sdcard and also has the ability to email the transcripts to what ever account you want.
trillian lets you set a custom ringtone for notifications where as beejive only lets you pick from either the yahoo, msn, or aol im sound. I think this is unfortunate though beejive lets you set a different sound when the app is active and when it is idel which is cool
beejive will notify you in the status bar when you receive an im as well as blink the led, though I think the status bar notification is timed (by that I mean the notification disappears from the status bar after some set time. This is what I have noticed idk anything official)
I believe trillian also notifies you in the status bar. trillian also allows you to suspend the app. this logs you out of the app on the phone but keeps you logged into all your im services on trillian's servers. I think this is prob similar to beejive's idel stat in that it is designed to use less battery when not actively using the app. If the app is suspended you will receive an email notification that you have received an im.
As far as support goes, trillian has a forum that you can post any questions in. The only support for beejive that I know of are their email addresses listed on their website and the market-place and I haven't had much luck when emailing them questions.
beejive also lets you set your status: available, away, busy, and invisible and also have custom status messages for each service. You can also delete, appear offline, and block contacts though I haven't had success with those features.
I think that they should re-add those features back.
For a second there, I thought I was the only one that noticed that Facebook push notifications actually existed for a short while and then died. I've done multiple phone wipes and rebuilds to try to correct the problem. Now it's clear that it's a Facebook thing and not my phone.
I setup a gmail account just for facebook....I get instant notifications....I gave up on face book notification. And only reason i setup another gmail...so i can have a diffrent tone and nothing but FB mesages. THe moment you get your message its sent to your gmail you setup.
I think the lack of notifications is on purpose, and it makes sense. Here is why, an average person has well over 100 friends on FB, if you leave a comment on any post you recieve a notification on facebook each time someone responds, if you "like" a post, the same thing happens, now figure that you commented on 20 or more different posts and made a few yourself, Do you people have any idea how incredibly annoying it would be to get a notification everytime someone "likes" or comments on those same posts or links anytime after? It makes perfect sense why FB only pushes Friend Requests, PM's and Events. I won't even get into the amount of server bandwith it would be using. It's common sense.
I suppose it would be nice for them to offer an option in the settings for the people so incredibly obsessed with every little thing that happens on facebook but I myself would go insane if my phone vibrated or beeped everytime someone responded to a wall post.
Uh....Facebook allows push notifications for everything. Just not push notifications from app. Everything you mentioned is pushed to my gmail account or sms. Yes does get annoying if 50 people reply to a post but FB does push notifications.

No Facebook notifications anymore?

last couple days i don't get any notifications anymore. Thought it would be fixed with the halloweeen update but still the same issue here. I'm not sure if it's facebooks fault, an app issue, or windows phone related. But I'm having similar problems with my galaxy s android device.
Only Chat is pushed on windows phone right now. On my galaxy s i can get messeges via messenger app, but no notifications someone post on my wall too.
What about you?
Working fine here, even after the new update... messages, friendship requests, the works.
Works fine here, I just got 3 for Wall posts/comments
Do you mean the Facebook app or the built-in system?
If you mean the Facebook apps then i have no clue, but the built-in system show the notification through Live Title of "me"
If youre talkin about the facebook app itself it doesnt give u anymore notifications once u hit more than 19 unread notifications u have to view those notifications to clear them out then u will get more notifications
I don't even have 1 notification.. no push notifications at all on the facebook app......
