Facebook Chat Heads - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone been able to get Facebook Chat Heads to work properly on the Note 10.1?
I'm running stock rooted TouchWiz with Nova Launcher and have chat heads enabled in the Messenger settings, but I never get the chat head bubble when I get new message.
Thanks in advance.

I use today an xperia z tablet and when you receive a new message from Facebook the bubble appear immediately on the screen, but on this tablet, Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, it doesn't appear immediately. That's weird. I hope someone post a solution

No one's knows why Facebook chat heads doesn't work properly on Galaxy Note 10.1?

Just found a temporary fix: go to messenger settings > chat heads and uncheck option 'Hide when using apps that take up the full screen'. Now the chat heads should be visible until you close them by dragging to close button. Still, you lose the option to hide them while using full screen apps.

that icon is pretty ugly
Awesome app! My two suggestions would be to use a Facebook icon or just an "F" icon, and to have the ability to not show the notification of there are no new notifications (count = 0). Keep up the good work! Thanks

Am I allowed to use a Facebook logo? I thought that would be against the FB TOS or violating of their trademark?

looks better, but it doesn't clear the number on the notification

how about a simple " f " ?
like anydash, but i think you have to design it yourself tho
just get the idea from there i guess?
Any chance of getting Facebook Messenger support? On my phone I use Messenger more than the actual Facebook app.
I rather like this notification setup. I like the new version. Great job with this.
Only wish it could go straight to the notification I'm clicking (if it's a single notification) rather than just to the Facebook App.
But no real complaints. It's great!

[APP][4.2] AnyDash - Show notifications from any app in your DashClock Widget

AnyDash is a small extension for DashClock Widget. It allows you to select any app on your phone and it'll grab notifications from that app (the same notifications you see in your status bar) and display them in your DashClock Widget.
Google Play Store Link
Donate/Pro Link - Allows up to 3 AnyDash widgets in one go - Will not work properly if AnyDash free is also installed
Note: Some apps notifications aren't picked up, if you find any which don't show notifications in AnyDash let me know and I'll see what I can do
Oh and if anyone wants to have a go at a better icon feel free.. mine's a bit pants I know.. Enjoy!!
For anyone who has a particular app that doesn't work can you do the following:
1 - Setup the app you want in AnyDash as usual
2 - Trigger a notification so, for example, send an email to yourself and wait for it to appear in your status bar
3 - Get the logcat (filter for 'robj.any.dash' or robj.any.dashpro' depending on which one your using) - you can use CatLog from the Play Store to do this and pm it to me
Once I get that I can add support no problem
hi there! thanks for this extension..
i tried to use this with 8tracks, however, it force closes everywhere. FC is solved as soon as the connection is removed..
New version is up..
- Added the option to change the icon
- Tidied up the UI
- Some minor bug fixes
As to the 8tracks bug I couldn't reproduce it could you try on the latest update and see if you still get it.. also which ROM are you on?
This sounds like an epic win. WhatsApp is also included?
Sent using herpdiderp
Is it possible to add multiple extensions of anydash for more than one custom app? It would also be nice if we were able to select an icon from an icon pack we already have installed. Thanks for all your hard work.
Are you planning on adding more icons? Or do you need help.
I'd love a WhatsApp icon.

I can add a Whatsapp icon for the next release, due to the way you add the icon atm there's no way to allow custom ones (I have tried) but I emailed Roman and he said this will most likely be possible in a future version of DashClock Widget.
And as far as multiple extensions for multiple apps I've tried but it looks like it supports 1 extension per app at a time so AnyDash can only show one thing, I'll continue to look into this though
Had a quick try at an icon, but didn't really end up with anything I liked. I've uploaded it anyway in case you want to use it http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7752006/1/anydash-icon-v2.png

If you like that icon you can use it. Let me know if you have any other ideas, maybe sometime I can try and work something out for you.
I do and I appreciate the effort but I was thinking of something more simple.. like shapes but using the holo colors maybe?
Anyone been able to get this working with Google Now?
I'm doing an update shortly.. if there's an app not working people want working let me know so I can add it in.. and if any Google Voice users want to help me get it working let me know as I'm in UK so can't even test it
So far I've got Talk and I'm working on Google Messenger, Plus, Now (how can you trigger notifications in now?)

SMS app like Chat Heads??

So the new Facebook messenger comes with chat heads and I really like the idea of it. I was wondering if anyone knew of a strictly SMS texting app that is similar in that it allows me to reply AND VIEW my messages on top of any other app? pop up reply is cool from certain apps but I like that I can view my messages with chat heads. thanks!

Thanks for the tip! Does it use a lot of data if i just use it for SMS? And i'm looking into Ninja sms now
So ninja SMS is cool but I like chatheads in that I can actually view a convo whenever I want (not just when I receive the message). like I want a tab or something to always be visible

Ya I saw that to! I emailed the developer about that, and a few other glitches I found in the 5 minutes I had it running. I can see it going far in the app world, but there are some items that need to be addressed.

It appears that there has been an update since my first install. I had it disabled and it didn't update. Just updated but gonna disable again, looks like none of my finds were fixed according to the change log in the playstore.

I love the idea but I'm still wanting a tab or something to ALWAYS be showing in any app, ya know? so I can view (or create) messages anywhere without leaving my current app
I would love to have only the popout function (like on FB-messenger) but on my stock SMS-app.
I really like the stock-feeling and honestly, Facebook really succeded with their popout. Sleek, good looking, smooth and functional.
Wish there were some kind of extension
Wish it would work with whatsapp too

Screenshots:
Works on SGS3 4.1.2.
This is the best notifications app I've tried so far
A bit laggy but works on my Xperia Z 4.2.2.
Would be great if both apps would be merged.
Installed nils+ on htc one x/cm10.2nightly
I'll give it a go next few days and see if I can make up some suggestions
This is just what I needed.
Let me try this

Ok, works very good.
suggestion: build some kind of filter, I get notifications from xprivacy, titanium media sync and apps I installed through the web playstore. Notifications which I personally find not interesting enough to display on the lockscreen. Maybe something like: "press 5 seconds on the notification to put the app on the ignorelist"
I would pay for nils+ by the way, how much is it gonna cost?

ok, ignore my previous post, it's in the nils app, not in the nils+. I assume it will work
@Roymam I have NiLS from the Play Store installed as of right now... do I have to uninstall that version, then download and install v1.2.5r2, then download and install NiLS+ v0.5r5?! Thanks man, awesome app, been using it for about 2 weeks now, used to use DashClock but find this much better!!
EDIT: Nevermind v1.2.5r2 just went live on the Play Store!

You right - you can set to ignore apps on NiLS settings.
I cannot guarantee prices yet. But the introduction price will be as low as I can.

Does this work with widgetlocker?, i have the original nils on my phone and tablet running on top of widgetlocker
My other question is, does this have the ability to keep the notifications even if theyre no longer on the status bar or if i click them? In the original Nils it doesnt do this even if i check the option to do it
I really would like to have that option

Feedback
Hi!
I´am using this fantastic app from the start and helped with the first translations. A great project!
Here is my feedback for the new extension:
1. There are apps that add always new lines to the same notification. The problem is that new lines are added to the end of the list. But I need the newest line on top (it´s also an issue with the main app).
2. It happens too often that you accidentally swipe down and kill all entries. There should be a symbol to reach (match) or something else (like you have to do to unlock to the app directly).
3. I would be great to delete expanded notifications my dragging the icon on a symbol like a trashcan
4. How about a system where you can flip through all expanded notifications or display the next one after deleting the current?
5. There should be a mode where you can use the extension together with the widget of the main-app to have the configurable clockfaces...
Keep on rockin!

Always On Display - is there a mod to show all notifications?

Has anyone figured out how to modify the always-on display to show notifications for all apps, not just the default Samsung messaging and email apps?
+1
That would be nice.
maybe an update will trickle down from the Note7, who knows
I hope that update from note 7 is coming to s7.
