FB Messenger with Chatheads in Market now - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

If you update the FB messenger app, you get chatheads, even without FB home. Using it right now, very slick

I don't see a difference. What an I missing here?

When someone sends you a fb message, you'll get the chathead notification on your home screen. If you want chatheads to work with your texts too, go into the settings for fb messenger, and press sms/mms, and select the option to use messenger for sms. Now you'll get chathead notifications for texts too.

I hate to admit it, but this is actually really cool. Only thing missing is MMS support, which i don't use that often. I really like how in the pop-up you can scroll back and read the previous messages. Best pop-up notification for SMS on the market IMHO.

It should have MMS support, its listed in the settings, though I haven't tested it. But yea, its definitely slick. I'm glad they chose not to force you to have home in order to use it. Very smart decision on their part

Try longpressing on a message in messenger. There should be an option that says "Pop out chat head". Maybe that will get it going.

I can't get it work it either. I don't see the option for "pop out chat head" when I long press. I am on the latest build too. I tried deleting the FB account in settings along with the apps then did a reinstall but nothing. I don't see the option in the settings for chat heads either.

I cannot get this to work either. What ROMS are the people that have chat heads working, running? I am on PA and had to switch off tablet mode just to see the settings dots for messenger. Still, no chat heads check box in the notifications settings.

I'm running the vanilla version of MMuzzy's 4.2.2 ROM. It is pure AOSP. I am wondering if it is an issue with the android version and not the ROM. Since all the phones that FB home is compatible with are 4.1, maybe chat heads in messenger just won't work on anything 4.2 based. Is there confirmation of it working on any 4.2 device? I'll try my N10 later tonight.

It's great and all, but i wish it stuck to your screen. I hate when i clear all my apps and then it also clears away the Chat heads. Know if there's a way to make it stay?

Can I put a skin on the GN?

I know most people here are feeling horrified someone would put a skin on their GN but I really really really miss having large icons on my home screen that display how many text, voicemail and email messages I have and being able to click on them and I'm in the program I need to be to actually review the messages. Or perhaps there is a program like Beautiful Widgets that can give me that feature back?
I'm not sure if it is related or not but I miss the visual voicemail on my ET4G.

Can we make a list of apps that support Jellybean notifications

Can we make a list of apps that support Jellybean notifications, would be nice to be using apps that support it.
so far itll be all the core google apps, tunein radio, and pulse i think.
Pulse doesn't, so far all I've seen are the core apps, Tunein, and Notification Toggles. Anyone see any other apps with it?
Can you post screen shots of notifications?
I do not get gmail,extended notification nor call back/SMS for missed calls
Twoons supports Jelly Bean notifications. It's a twitter client

How does it work on yours? It doesn't work on mine.
I think the stock SMS and Gmail apps could be doing a much better job of utilizing the new notification style. All they do is show expanded views of messages. I'd like the SMS app to give me quick access to calling the sender or deleting the message right from the notification, and Gmail should let me delete or archive messages without going into the app. The missed call notifications (where you can choose to call the person or send a message right from the notification) are how it should be done for all apps where it makes sense, and I don't know why they didn't do the same for SMS and Gmail. Maybe they will eventually.

Group MMS and Other Hidden Gems in Android 4.2 (on a Galaxy Nexus)

Well, There's a working Group MMS option in the stock messenger. Oh my GOD is this great! :good:
Anyone else find anything worth reporting?
Miracast is obviously not included on the GNex ROM as I doubt it has the hardware to support it.
I'm not sure if it was there before but I noticed that you can disable system apps now. Just go to Settings -> Apps -> All and select an app from there. If its a system app, the "Uninstall" option becomes "Disable". In my case I'm not using Currents and Google Talk so I had them disabled. Now they are hidden and don't show up in the App Drawer.
*EDIT: NVM. Apparently "its been there since forever" as the guy below replied to me.
*EDIT2: Ok. I've read that the feature to "disable" system apps was slightly improved in 4.2. Before, you need to uninstall updates first before you can disable a system app. Now you can disable system apps directly without the need of uninstalling the updates first. That was the reason I thought disabling system apps is new in 4.2. When I was in 4.1.x I just see the "Uninstall Updates" button.

I was just going to post about this. Lol.
I think there are minor aesthetic changes, as well. When you are in messaging, compose a message and are choosing a recipient from your contacts there is now shading underneath the box with the recipient. I don't think this was in 4.1.2 or lower. The font also seems a little bolder in the messaging threads, most notably for me with the font being set to small.
Does the group messaging work with other platforms (iPhone, Blackberry, WP7/8)? In other words, did they finally decide to bake in threaded MMSes into 4.2?

So the update came out and know quite a few people talking about it. If you update Facebook and messenger you now get this option without having to use Facebook home. Anyone get it to work?

Open messenger,, then when the window comes up on the top left hand side should say messages.make sure that your settings allow pop up heads.
You do this by going into settings on the actual messenger app, then click on notifications, , then check "chat heads"
Now go back to messages window and hold down a conversation that you already have going.
On the conversation window that comes up tick the pop up heads option.
There you go hope that helps

Yeah, unfortunately, I concur. I also was planning for this to be a more unified client than it is. Instead of merging the hangouts and SMS threads it keeps them separate. I was expecting it to be like the iMessage client for iOS: Data message unless the recipient doesn't have the app or you have no data connection, SMS for the rest

Come on folks, obviously the new Google apps are making use of the API's in 4.4 that aren't going to work properly on 4.3. This is the reason even something like Maps has different current versions floating around depending what you're running. There's going to be bugs just side loading this from a system image especially for a new app like hangouts that's now being deeply integrated into the system in 4.4.

I'm sure we're all quite aware of that. Thank you for pointing out blatantly obvious things.
No one here is saying "WTF Google why you no make teh hangoutz werk for mah Note before official release?! "
We're merely conversing, seeing if these problems are shared by all, or just some. So pump the brakes and cool your jets.
The simple fact it works
Flawlessly on my wife's Galaxy S3 and not my Note 3 makes me curious and eager to see if there are tweaks on our end that can nudge the software into a happy place.
That being said, constructive and helpful people who manage to find workarounds or anything helpful to get their MMS working without crashing the app, hop in and share!
