I've got the latest version of the Facebook for Android app and up until the last update I was receiving notifications normally (thanks to being a former BlackBerry user) but now only Chat notifications work and not notifications for comments etc. Is anyone else having this problem?

I am the OP of that link but unfortunately I'm in the same boat currently. Something seems to have broken the notifications. I noticed it a few days ago. Boooooo. Since there hasn't been a Facebook app update and this spans all phones, I suspect it's something with BlackBerry but that's just a guess. I suppose though it could be something to do with all of the changes currently going on with Facebook site. Either way back to reading and researching like crazy :'(

UPDATE: I went ahead and cleared the data for the Facebook app last before I went to bed and now all is back to normal. I'm getting all of my push notifications again. WHEW!

It turns out my phone was the problem, I hadn't restarted in a few days and when I did all was back to normal. And it turns out Facebook wasn't the only app affected, my ScoreMobile FC noti's also stopped but I just didn't realise.

Hey ccw1134...Ever since I've done your step-by-step tutorial, I haven't had any problems thus far. I cleared cache, data, and history occasionally on my phone - hence keeping things working smoothly. Also, I've noticed that unchecked and recheck notification under the app settings usually fix any notification problems you may be having.

Thanks Rushrl. I will do that next time. I've only had a problem just this once. I have really grown accustom to having notifications on my phone. I don't ever want to go back to not having them.
