I don't know if an update occurred, but a number of days ago now (maybe since the FB outage), my FB Messenger messages on the Messenger app (not the Facebook app, or Facebook for Desktop) are not coming through when my phone is locked and the screen is off for awhile (even like 15 minutes or something). When I unlock my phone I don't even get them. It's only when I open the FB messenger app that all the notifications come through and pop up at once . It seems to only be FB messenger that's affected. I get Google Calendar Reminders and Text Notifications. They are coming through immediately and just fine on Messenger.com and Facebook.com .
Completely cleared the cache/data for Messenger and uninstalled/reinstalled the program. Makes no difference. I haven't changed any battery settings or restricted anything. Do not disturb is not on.
Is anyone else experiencing this?

Now that I'm running a 2.2 blur-less ROM (RubiX), I'm using the actual Facebook App again instead of the Blur social networking. However, when I open the Facebook app, I don't get the option to sync contacts anymore. My Droid 1 running the same exact facebook app does, so I'm guessing it's some sort of build.prop check that it does on whether to hide the sync or not.
Is there any build.prop solution to get this to re-appear?
Here's what I did.
First I removed any Facebook account from contacts.
Then, uninstalled the native Android Facebook app.
Next, created the account again for facebook contact sync (the one that comes with the DX).
Waited 30 minutes for all pix/contacts to sync.
Re-installed native facebook app.
My guess is that you'll still have a few issues but give that a try and see what happens.
I have a Samsung focus and did the mango update and now about 80% of my facebook contacts pictures (on the phone not the facebook app) do not show up on the phone. Anyone else have this issue or a way to fix it?
Thanks
Did you try to refersh your facebook account?
Go Settings --> email + accounts --> Facebook - Sync
if you search all you contact will come up. If you want it to list all of your FB contracts in you phone you have to change the settings.
Please post in the correct forum next time. Should have gone in Q&A.
As for your question, are you talking about contact photos for your contacts, or your Facebook contacts themselves not showing up.
If your contact photos aren't showing up, maybe your contacts need to be re-linked to their Facebook accounts. Check if they are linked.
If your Facebook contacts are not showing up at all, and you want them to be displayed in your People list, then you need to go into People settings and change the filter to display Facebook contacts (if you haven't already done so).
thanks for all the input. I am aware of all said above. I updated to Mango and this is a mango issue. All of my facebook contacts show up, the only issue is about 30-40% of them when i try to choose the facebook picture or my contact picture the facebook picture is missing. This is not a settings issue otherwise the other 60-70% would not work properly. Is there a way to delete the facebook account and redo it in mango? I have already tried to resync it many times but for many facebook contacts it shows a blank picture while others it does not. Attached is a screenshot showing only my facebook contacts, as you can see some of the pictures are missing. IS there any way to reset just facebook on Mango Beta?
Thanks
well i got a worst problem, i have a htc hd2 with mango beta 1 with marketplace, everything is fully functional but "IM". I've tried everything even change languages for both windows live and facebook, but always says in set im status "cant connect to im".
Guys,
I am having problems with synching facebooks MESSAGES on the stock Facebook App.... I tried Friendcaster Pro as well, the only thing is that I am not able to retrieve Facebook Messages received after 18th July. In Friendcaster pro, i get the notification for a New Message, but it also fails to retrieve it.
I tried:
# Restarting the cell phone;
# Uninstalling the Updates of Facebook App from Android Market;
# Deleting the Facebook account from Settings>Accounts & Syncs;
From the Mobile browser and Laptop, it works fine.
Any of you are facing this problem?
DO I NEED TO HARD RESET ?
I have a feeling it may have something to do with the merger between Facebook's Chat and Messaging. I've had issues with chat/messages for a while now.
Hello,
I'm fairly new to android and have been playing with RCMix's ICS ROMs, I'm currently running v3.2 which is Android 4.0.3 with HTC Sense 4.0.3.
I seem to have found that push notifications do no work, namely:
* Apps purchased from the market website do not get installed on the device. (although now my device does not show in the market website - related?)
* Androidlost.com works fine if you manually fetch messages or set it to poll, but the (C2DM?) messages do not get to the device if left alone. NB, the tests that are available within Androidlost all come back OK, so the device is registered correctly.
* Facebook messages (and Facebook Messenger) are not pushed, but are there if I log into Facebook or Messenger.
* Pushed emails using either the standard HTC Mail app and Exchange Activesync or the GMail app. If you set the mail to be polled every 15 mins then new mail is received correctly.
Would this be expected behaviour for a leaked/beta ROM hence me not being able to find much information about it?
Is this a known problem with these ROMs? (I cannot find any particular reference to it on here or using google)
If the answer to these two questions is no, where should I be looking to try to rectify this?
Thanks
Chris
Having said that all the tests from androidlost come back OK I have just upgraded to the new version (2.17) which has more tests! Now it comes back with:
"Test no: 9
Sending push command from server
COULD NOT RECEIVE GOOGLE PUSH MESSAGE"
Update 2...
Phone now appears under list of devices on the Market Website.
I deleted my Google account from Settings > Accounts & Sync, then cleared the data from Google Services Framework in Settings > Applications
Then re-added the account under Settings > Accounts & Sync. I can also now remotely install apps from the market website.
All other problems still exist though...
Making progress....
Update 3 - Fixed, by doing the following:
Delete Google account.
Clear data from Google Services Framework.
Re-setup google account.
Uninstall Android Lost from the app (under advanced).
Re-Install Android Lost.
Open Android Lost
(Still does not work at this stage - Trouble shooter reports it has
picked up my work email address not by Google one)
Re-register Android Lost (under advanced).
Hey presto - it works! - and so does everything else
Hope this helps someone else in future!

I've had Instagram installed on my Android phone (Nexus 6P) for quite some time now. I decided to download Facebook's standalone Messenger and when I went to log in, it knew that I had my Instagram account and suggested that I log in with my Instagram account. How can prevent apps from being able to read each other like this?
