To set up notifications for new Tweets from selected accounts:
Go to the account's profile on the app.
Tap the gear icon located next to the follow button.
From the pop up menu that appears, select Turn on notifications. You can only adjust notifications for accounts that you follow.

iOS has it for sure, I use that as my text tone on iOS. On topic, try what's already been suggested about the settings in the app OP. I haven't used Android in a while, so I can't be too sure if that's the only thing you need to change.

Hey guys,
So, you know that official Facebook app is supposed to have push notifications, right? Yeah? Well, it apparently does, they just never worked for me at all. Turns out, there's a fix, and it's quite the strange one - you have to sign into the Facebook app on a Blackberry. Once you've done that, you'll start getting push notifications for wall posts, comments, and event invites, with an entirely new notification icon. Weird, no?
Of course, it's not like I had a recent BB device just lying around.. Thankfully, the Blackberry emulator software works just fine for our purposes. I've written up a guide for the curious, with links to the emulator software and so forth.
Seems the fix was found in May over at AndroidCentral, but I'd certainly not seen it posted anywhere I frequent, and had to spend some time searching for a fix to stumble across the post - hence this topic.
Let me know if it works for you.
Really interesting, I'd like to try and see!

Cheers - Weird, isn't it? I'm planning to make a walkthrough video later on today, unfortunately my Galaxy S II's camera is the best I have, so I'll need to convince the girlfriend to let me tinker with her Nexus One to show how it's done.. We'll see if she lets me.
This trick worked for me.
I've always had that notification icon (little sign-post looking thing), and have never signed in on a Blackberry, so I guess mine have always worked for some reason.
Interesting, have you got anything else of note authorised on your Facebook account?

What do you mean by 'private messages'? Facebook chat/messenger? This works for wall posts, comments, and event invites, not messages - that's what the separate Facebook Messenger app is for.
Worked 100 percent for me. Thanks

Then I might have said something stupid, I'll keep you updated.
One observation tho, in your guide you say that it's possible, once you enable this, to deactivate the periodic check, since you get push notifications. I agreed and removed it. If push doesn't "push" private messages tho, I guess that I'll have to re-enable the periodic checks, since that checks private messages received too.
Would you be able to do this for us, if we give you our Facebook credentials? (big big sign of trust I know )
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Update, it works
Altho I wish it would push private messages too, so that I could remove the periodic update of 30 min
Works perfect! Thank you sooo much!

Private messages get pushed to me and have done so for the past 2 months, something must be up on your end. Make sure you've turned on notifications for messages in the FB app, if that doesn't work then I'm out of ideas mate
Could you send me your Database files in /data/data/com.facebook.katana/databases after cleaning them from any private information ( I'm particularly interested in the key_value database ).
I'm wondering if there's any way we can activate it without this long process, so I wanna compare settings from a push activated device and a not push activated one.
So why do you think this wasn't implemented in the app itself?
Is it because its buggy or a battery drainer?
Or is it because Apple and RIM pay royalties to Facebook to have the better features?
Thanks man ... working like a charm here.
I have always got fb notifications without having to do any of this.

Every phone ive ever had including the galaxy s2 when you clicked in the to box it would bring uo your contact list letting you choose the contact.

You can also go to the contact list and choose to text
Go to Phone Icon > People tab, then click on the left box where their photo is.
Then on the right side of the phone number is an icon i can't describe, but that lets you text.
yeah many phones do that
But i would always search in the list anyway so for me this is a step less

Hey everyone, no matter what ROM I use, Twitter Push notifications won't work on my GSM Galaxy Nexus. Any ideas why? It's really, really frustrating.
Some background: I'm in the US, using the the GSM Galaxy Nexus, which I got from Negri Electronics. I am running it on T-Mobile USA, and it's currently on the Android Revolution ROM. I seem to be the only one getting this issue.
When I rooted, I followed the guide on theunlockr.com http://theunlockr.com/2011/12/14/how-to-root-the-samsung-galaxy-nexus/ which was unlock bootloader, install superboot/root, install rom manager, install rom. I never installed any radio or anything. But, I don't think any of those are issues.
Any ideas?

Now go bask in idiocy. Follow the development and familiarize yourself with terms, otherwise you look just foolish.
Show us a screenshot then - where is the option for "Automatic Refresh?"- people are willing to help, but the belligerent attitude doesn't help.
As I've said, I've gone through the settings in the Android twitter app (v 3.0.0, for reference), and I don't see that option anywhere. Have you tried asking Twitter for support?

You don't see a it in settings because it's enabled automatically. Jeez, it's people like you that make XDA unbearable... Educate yourself before you continue. I even provided you with links so you can understand.
Settings have changed with versions. You can turn it off manually, but you're probably too incompetent to understand...
Seems like someone else needs to educate themselves. Directly from your ever-so-educational link, it says:
Push notifications let you instantly receive Twitter updates – no matter what you’re doing on your phone. In your account settings, select “automatic refresh” and choose to receive updates for Direct Messages, @Mentions (from the people you follow or anyone), and Tweets.

I'm sorry, I thought you had some intelligence. Options change with new versions... With the new Twitter app, it's under Notifications, mentions, and if you turn mentions off that means push notifications are off, for mentions. Same goes for DMs. Get it, or is that too fast for you?
Good luck solving your problem with that attitude.
At any rate, Twitter would seem to be the best place to solve problems with the Twitter app, but good luck all the same.

Sorry bro, you were frustrating me. I'm on a shorter fuse than usual. Stressed out - apologies either way. Have a goodnight. I need sleep
I am failing to see why you are being so negative. How can you ask for help and when two separate people try to assist you have a hostile tone to your replies.
I have the new updated twitter app on my GN on VZW. There is NO option for automatic updates or push notifications. There is a time frame where you can pick poll intervals.
You don't have to act like a child in the forums to people only trying to help you!
Maybe push notifications just dont work...
Have to agree with the OP here. If someone mentioned/tweeted me I'd get an email and the Twitter notification at the same time (within seconds of the post). Now I only get the email. The app still recognises the mention under the @Connect tab but I don't get any push notifications whereas I used to on the older versions of the app. Either Twitter has changed something or it's not working

I just had a browse on Twitter's support resources - there is some indication that you may have to have a sync interval set up (nothing to do with push, I know) in order for push to work, but it was just a hint of a whisper of an idea, nothing definitive.

The numbers you called most often were put in this category, and you couldn't clear the list if you want. Say you have a 1-900 phone sex issue you wanted to hide from your GF or wife, you'd need to wipe your whole phone to get rid of it
Now you can just clear it - just like a web browsers history.

I am not sure if it is, but it is Facebook's responsibility to get sync working. Google provided a way for them to make it happen, but they need to make it work with their application.

Block on stock app works great. They end up in the blocked folder without notifications.
I used to use the private folder in Go Sms Pro... But i use MOOD sms... It takes a little to set up but theres ZERO add spam and functions and looks way smoother.
Stock messaging app does this, no need for a 3rd party app. Open the message thread from the contact in question and hit the 3-dot menu, then custom notifications. You can turn off notifications completely, mute sounds, hide the content, etc. I have my kid's dad muted like this lol.

Private/hidden messages are very much different from blocking. The goal isnt to mute notifications. Its to seperate your main txt threads from your private txt threads. Stock doesn't allow this, not even when using Samsung's own secure folder app. So a 3rd party Apps like go sms... Mood... Textra... Etc are still needed for this level of functionality.
Ive always used Handcent Messaging. Has a private messaging feature that keeps certain contacts out of your main messaging window.
This thread just made my day... "Tryna" get back to work now...? BTW, Textra is a great app but doesn't support private folders, not that I've been able to find anyway...
I have used gosms and it was pretty nice. Dont know if thats still available but it a search.
