Hi together,
Within Facebook I configured an auto-sync and receive notifications but I do not get them :-(
tried already to de-install and install but did not help.
latest Facebook version is installed.
Does it work for anybody?
Thanks and cheers,

by default sense has very aggressive memory management meanng it will close apps quite quickly there are some app on play and as a mod on the forums, to improve it.
but before that have you tried unticking and reticking the box? clearing cache/data of FB or reinstalling it?
I have no memory management tweaks and i am getting them just fine :/

Does nobody else face this issue? :-( Do you get FB notifications in your taskbar?

I don't get them either, but I didn't get them on the SGS2 either, so not sure if I'm supposed to get them.
I get a notification via tapatalk though when someone sends me a private message. - so, not every process gets killed.

What kind of notifications do you miss?
Perhaps you should activate them yourself, on your fb groups you should visit the group and turn on notifications to get them, for IM you game messenger perhaps (no problem there I think?)
You can also check the refresh interval @settings on your Facebook app if it is high then you won't get notifications so often.

where to check - within the app or within FB itself?
This is an Android issue....the only way I solved it myself was get access to a blackberry (yeah I know) or the virtual Blackberry software for windows.
Once logged in to Facebook log straight back out, you only need it for a minute, then go to Facebook on a PC, account settings and then apps I believe, in there somewhere will be Facebook for Blackberry, allow this access and that's it!
Its a bit fiddly but it solved it for me!
If you Google the right thing you will find a step by step guide, sorry I did this a year ago, so its all from memory :-\

I can confirm this. When I was still using my Galaxy S2 and lacked notifications for Facebook, I used the virtual blackberry software for windows from the RIM site, and logged in on facebook with that to fix the problem. It's been mentioned a few times before.
this is an well-known issue and affecting majority of Android devices, there are two workarounds
1. use MB Notifications for Facebook from Android Market
2. try the Blackberry FB tricks here:

I used the 2nd method and it works like a charm

Or use Friendcaster (or Friendcaster Pro) from the market.
I get all notifications with no problem by using this app and it has a push setting too (although it is still a bit buggy atm)

I want to add a hotmail email account?
Also location services not working on map. When I press navigation "waiting for location" appears. It seems to be taking a long time. It works after a few minutes. I went into maps found my location as you said. Anyway to make location work faster.
Also at the top right hand side of my phone the sync arrows are there? What does that mean.
Also I do not see a browser that installed. I thought Chrome would be on the device. Don't see it?
Thanks for the fast response.
For the browser why won't u just download chrome from the play store? Location works but it is slow. U need to remember miui or any custom ROM for that matter are all work in progress and should not be taken as a perfect working ROM. There should be a tab on the email app that should let u add another email.

It happens if you are using some screen adjusting app like Screen Adjuster. You will have to turn it off to make the install option activate.

Also AppWidgetDisplay for Sony Smartwatch causes such behavior.

Yup, I have a Note 2 - the OLED screen can be problematic for my artwork without toning down the red. I imagine I'm not the only artist to use a Note as a quick and dirty, extemporaneous and backup portfolio.
Sure enough "Screen Adjuster" which allows RGB color balancing also makes the Install button unclickable when directly installing APKs. Drove me nuts - always found a temporary solution - rebooting, stopping Play Services, clearing caches for Services and the Play app (plus Aptiode, etc.) but these were hit and miss. Turned it off and it worked without any other hoops to jump through.
Glad I came across this - I don't usually install APKs at this point as my Note 2's apps/uses are pretty stable at this point, but for those days when you have 15 Xposed Framework APKs to install... and. clicking! stabbing! the damn! install button. does. nothing. ...yeeesh.
Figured this out from an Phandroid thread that listed similar apps:
Easyeyez Screen Filter
Twilight Filter
...and other screen dimming filter apps. The post is long because it's been a hassle for a long time... and hopefully to make it a bit easier for someone to find, including the above apps.
God that was annoying. Now to fix my memleak/lag issues.
Rotation manager is causing this too.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2405849
Echo Lock Screen was the culprit for me.
Happened to me a few times I reboot and if that doesnt work then I clear the caches. Its been a while since I have seen that.
Wow unimaginable
This is unimaginable. Who could think something like a display app (Twilight for me) could create such a condition.
I checked and checked my security settings to confirm I have set the option "to install from unkown sources". I also tried various developer options, but all futile! Also tried rebooting the phone! Nothing worked :crying: until I hit this post! :laugh:
Lots and lots of thanks to this post. I can now turn of the Twilight app and install other apps.

@fernandovg did you ever find a solution or alternative app for this? if it wasn't for your post about this, i'd still be scouring the internet for answers to button functionality being broken. Also, did you experience any apps that you allowed to rotate not rotating? ie - i set chrome, youtube, reddit, any other app i may view video in to enable rotation so i can have full screen, but that function was broken too the app worked 100% for the first while i had it installed then just crapped out on me for some reason. I messaged the creator of the app for a response so i'll see where that takes me. did you notice malfunction around the time of flashing any roms with stagefright patches by chance? it's the only thing i can think of that was out of the ordinary that i did around the time i notice malfunction. thanks for your input.

Hi,
My friend also faced the same problem, and then he asked me if I could help him fix this.
Then I made some research, and finally I was able to find a solution to this problem.
Solution:
1. If you use any application "Screen Filter" , please disable the screen filter.
2. Then you try to install the application, then re-enable your screen filter. (It is up to you whether you want to re-enable or not, if enabled you should turn off your screen filter if you want to install an apk.
Press Thanks if I helped.

Usually low memory means you have low ram storage the best thing to do is to use app killers if you are rooted or just close apps when you are done with them aka instead of using the home button press the back button

I figured one solution for this that has worked for me. While I was working on an issue with the android stock browser, I realized there was an issue with clicking on a hidden form field using jQuery. I used this method on a file upload spot so I could style the upload form.
Developer fix:
The way around this is to set opacity to 0, position absolute and hide the form element. Hope this helps.
User fix:
I have not seen a user fix as of this point.

So where do I find 'Developer tools' on my Nexus 5?
The above suggested solution has not worked for me. I have cleared all history, shut down all tabs, updated to the latest version of Chrome. I have even uninstalled apps I have recently installed such as AVG protection (not even sure I need that, can anyone tell me?) ..and I tried to install an app killer and boot manager, both of which won't work without first installing Xposed Framework and when I tried to install that (after half an hour trying to find it) my phone went mad with warnings about bootloops and bricks and asked me if I was sure..fair frightened me to deaths and I abandoned the whole idea!
Now can anyone help me to solve this problem?
I can upload to Facebook fine but any other forums I'm still getting the 'Could not perform previous operation due to low memory! I have over 11GB of storage and plenty of memory as I'm not running anything. As stated I have a Google Nexus 5 on Lollipop Help!

To get devoloper options open,

Then start tapping on build version or build number until developer options becomes available.
press the back button.
you should now be in settings and developer options should be near the bottom of the list.

Yep. That did it for me as well. What the hell? That is just weird they require that to be off. You can download a video, but not upload a picture? I can also upload it to the actual apps.

Removed the option to kill apps after use in developers options and it all worked fine for me

Makes sense to me. As soon as you select the photo, the system dumps the procedure, causing it to fail, and giving us yet another cryptic error message.

Unfortunately neither of those things work. going to settings then accounts and sync and Google just opens up the normal Google now settings.

thats why I installed a custom rom as soon as I got the phone out of the box
backup with htc cloud, shouldn't take long to recover everything back to normal
I really don't want to install a custom rom. They are too unstable for me and the stock rom has great battery life and is well designed. Xposed modules can allow me to make any changes necessary without the bugs you get with custom roms.
Bumping this again. I have uninstalled, wiped data of the app, and done everything I can think of. Also updated to the latest one and no success. I have no apps modifying google now or any touch interfaces of any kind. Any idea for a fix?
So what are you actually wanting to change? What Google Now cards are shown? If so, you open Google Now and then click the magic wand you can then add/remove which cards are shown

Imho he means the settings screen where you can access e.g. the Offline Voice Packs...
A couple of us have been trying to figure this out forever. Custom ROM won't help. Something else is breaking it. In my case, I think it was when I installed a clear themed gnow from tbo. The only way I ever got it back was when I accidentally wiped my internal storage. I broke it again with clear gnow. Restoring a nand doesn't help. Clean flash doesn't help. This leads me to believe something is being left in internal SD that's messing with it. Another of us has not installed anything themed and still it's happening to him. Very elusive.
Here's a workaround that was just found. I'm pasting it from the tho thread I just posted it in. Op, maybe add to your op for people who stumble upon this thread with the same problem.
Pasted: Just want to keep you abreast of my discoveries. My problem, and a friends, of settings not working clearly start when I install clear gnow however I have found a couple people who have this problem and did not theme anything. Someone found a work around. This may or may not shed some more light. If you install gnow launcher you can access the settings from there. If you switch back to sense it stays until reboot but then if you need to adjust you can switch back to g launcher to do it. I'm just keeping gnow launcher installed for that purpose.
