Facebook notifications? - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions &

Hey guys, I know that I had issues last time I had a Samsung, with Fb notifications: meaning that I did not see likes or comment likes and so on , ONLY if I opened the app. Did they fix that? Do you get a badge on the app icon for Fb likes now?

Sounds like the app was being put to sleep by the battery manager. You can disable sleep optimizations for Facebook so you get notifications in real time. I'm having that issue still where I have to open the app and I get all my notifications as soon as it's opened

Make sure in the stock app and in settings, notifications and sound that stock notifications are off

thanks guys, no bueno. It's very strange, I went and changed the sounds in the stock notifications, and turned them off again, and it still gives me the stock notification, with the stock notification sound. It's like it's coming from some where else but where? This just started about a week ago, I don't understand because I've been using handcent forever

Did you install anything from the market that can control notifications?

just figured it out, part of a beautiful widgets update pack had a sms widget, didn't even realize it. I actually wiped everything, used titanium back up, and added apps one by one texting myself in between each add to find it! I did that 18 times before I got to it. Oh well, it's funny now, but it really pissed me off!

hey i'm having the same problem that you were having and i wondering if you remember which beautiful widget you needed to delete that was causing the double notifications. Because this is driving me insane.

Hey I've found out exactly what widget it is,so no need to answer. For anyone that might have this issue. When you download beautiful widgets they came come with a sms widget also. You have to long press on your screen, select widgets, then scroll down to the beautiful widgets there should be a beautiful widget sms. Select that and then the option should come up which has the notification options you need to turn off.

[Solved][CM10] Ehnhanced Notifications Disabled

Hello everyone
I've switched from CM7 on my old Nexus One to Galaxy Nexus and CM9, which was updated later to CM10.
I know everyone will tell me I've done a wrong thing, but I restored my whole phone apps/configuration from my old phone using TitaniumBackup: I have to say except for 1-2 apps, it worked just as I wished.
After few days of CM10 and watching other phones around me, I found out that Enhanced Notifications are already enabled in the nightlies, but they seem to be disabled on mine!
At this point I'm looking for some advice for enabling this feature. For sure, factory reset is the fastest option, but I will forget about the enhanced notifications rather than going through the whole factory reset thing.
I really don't need the full instructions here. A very brief hint can do the trick for me.
Thanks
Is it a specific to any one app or all of them? Because not many apps actually support enhanced notifications yet. Gmail is one that does.

Honestly, I never had the enhancements on my phone, so I don't know for sure on which apps they should appear.
Gmail gives long notifications (some content of the email), but no buttons. I think this is it for now.
But for missed calls for example, there should be some buttons, which are missing.
You mean the issue refers to phone app? nice idea. but I don't know whether phone app is not sending them, or notification bar doesn't receive.
Can you introduce me some app with the same feature support, so I can test?

Gmail isn't supposed to have buttons, just long message preview. The expanded notifications aren't always expanded. Drag down on it with 2 fingers. It should have buttons for a missed call.
Easiest way to check expandable notifications is to take a screenshot.
It's a huge shame for me that I didn't know this double finger trick.
thanks a lot

By the way: the notifications are never expanded on my phone. How can I change the default settings?

I think it just depends on if you've got other notifications already showing. If you've got none it should default to expanded.

Yeah, the app is driving me insane with this. I went into Settings/Apps and found the facebook app. Click on it and you can disable notifications from it altogether. Not an ideal solution, but it'll do the trick. Facebook doesn't seem to want to budge on this.
The latest update of the app which came out a few days after I posted this fixed the issue for me
Uninstall it !

Use greenify application, hibernate and FB will not notice.

[Q] G3 fb notifications

I am new to android phones and G3 (32gb/3gb/D855) is my first one.My problem is that i cant make my fb app push notifications.I have set on notifications from in app settings/account plus app section in G3 settings.I did clear data ,uninstal/install app even a reset to my phone !But nothing so far.Any suggestions?
Facebook for Android doesn't push notifications like iPhone does. But if you have the most recent version of Facebook beta (not sure if I'm still running beta or not) you should get Android L style lockscreen notifications of new Facebook notifications. Also notifications may or may not pop up in your notification drawer. I don't follow any friends on my fb only the news sites and companies I'm interested so I don't get many notifications

The core code. It's completely different, Apple and Google are like chalk and cheese. Total opposites.

Yes I know code wise of course they are different. But notifications are still shown and sent out via apps and displayed on the notification bar. What way is it in iOS? Is it not similar?

When gcm is used it does push notifications, the difference is just that you can decide yourself what you do with the message you received (as app developer) and show a notification or whatever afterwards.

Weather in Android 6.0 lockscreen

Hi! I just got my new LG G4 a few days ago, and I would like to know if there is an easy way to get weather information (preferably via widget) in the lockscreen of Android 6.0. My phone is not rooted, and at this moment I do not intend to do so, either.
I know this can be achieved with alternative lock screens, but as far as I know, those lock screens do not allow me to use the camera in a safe session while the phone remains locked, and this feature is a must for me. So, if anyone knows of a replacement lockscreen that allows this, then please let me know.
Thanks!
No one knows?
Well, you can always use Google now to find that info. Just say "Ok google, what's the weather like today?" (need to have google now installed and voice trigger activated)
The LG G4's lock screen itself has the animations of weather when there is high intensity of rain, fog or storm out there. That's really an awesome feature.
If you still want to see exact numbers on your lock screen, you can get any app that puts the info on your notification bar. Naturally, the notification appears on lock screen on g4 so from there you can get it....
Hope it helps

Thanks a lot! I can't get the weather animation on the lock screen. Does it only appear with a particular lock method (swipe, PIN, etc.)? Or with a particular swipe effect?
As for an app that puts the info on the notification bar, wouldn't that make the notification light blink constantly? Also, wouldn't that prevent the phone from sleeping and thus consume much more battery?

Hey,
So many questions at once! Will answer one by one
You will get the weather animation when the weather is intense, like its raining out there or fog is there. Not for the general temperatures, but for the unusual ones.
The option can be enabled in Settings > Lock Screen > Weather Animations.
For the App that puts info on notification Bar, you have the option to disable notification light for a particular app. You can disable the notification light for the weather app, however some would prefer that light keep blinking 24x7
No, notifications do not prevent phone from sleeping. Understand it this way: when you get messages on any app, say whatsapp or facebook messenger, you get notifications. But does that prevent phone from sleeping or consumes extra battery? no. Similarly, this app will just be getting hourly updates from server just like you getting messages on whatsapp. So Standby mode won't be affected.

I do not have that setting I have not done much to the phone since I got it. I updated it to 6.0, and I am using Lightning Launcher instead of the LG one. Could any of those things prevent me from seeing that option in settings?

Ok, I understand. Though, I see that my lockscreen has space for 2 notifications at a time, so I guess that if I receive an sms and I have a calendar event, the weather notification will be hidden, right? Oh, well, at least it is better than not having the notification at all.

Well Mate, I completely understand your situation.
Unfortunately, unlocking G4 isn't possible and at MM, rooting is not possible too (as of now).
Else I am sure custom roms can provide you all that you want with minimal effort.

And yes, you need to use LG launcher along with weather app from LG.
Anyways, LG launcher is quite stable and once you customize it with your preferences, its actually better than any other launcher out there. It allows you to switch off screen on double tap, the folders are quite good and customization, you can uninstall apps directly from drawer...in short its a good launcher.
I myself preferred Google now launcher earlier before having G4 but G4's launcher is really good.
I have an old app called Weatherbug Elite. It has the option of keeping live weather info in the notification bar. With it turned on the temperature is always displayed and when you slide open the notification bar there is a panel of weather info. This same panel shows on the lock screen via notifications. It does not keep the phone awake or blink the light. If there are several notifications it compresses on the lock screen them and you can expand them with a slide.
This app is no longer available, I got it as a free app of the day from Amazon a long time ago. There must be other apps that do the same thing though.

Thanks for the info! I'll try to track it down. Still, I do not understand why Google nerfed the lockscreen so much in the last versions of Android.
