Facebook App with "Ongoing Notifications" - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Everyone
I was hoping someone could help me. I saw a facebook feature on my mothers phone that I'd like on my own.
After a LOT of googling and searching around i've found out that the name of the feature i'm looking for is "Ongoing Notifications".
If i'm not mistaking, this is something that was released in a version of Facebook that was only available on the market for a short amount of time before they suddenly removed it again. Ironically, my mother (that pretty much NEVER update her apps) managed to get that update within the short timespan it was out. I live nowhere near her, and therefor i'm not able to backup the app from her phone and just install that on my own.
I THINK it was either version 3.6.1 or 5.6.1 (pretty sure it was the latter), but searching around I find no evidence of 5.6.1 being a valid version number.
Does anyone have the version of facebook i'm looking for installed on their phone, and would be so kind as to back it up and upload it somewhere? I would be eternally grateful, cuz this is annoying the crap out of me :cyclops:
//Espen
Edit: In case people don't necessarily realize what the feature actually does, i'd like to update this a little.
"Ongoing Notifications" adds a facebook bar in the phones notification center (dropdown menu), and an icon in the top left corner. It displays the same as your standard browser notification bar does, when logged in.

It's version 3.6.1
Let me upload it.

I have this version number and have never seen this option. How do you turn it on in the app?

Youtube updated

I was looking for something in the app market and happened to run across this. Looks like a new update for Youtube. Seems like a little smoother interface and bit more finger friendly. Just figured I'd share!
The native YouTube app? Or are you talking about a 3rd party one?
I ask because I'm not getting an update notification. Since its one of my most used apps I'm definitely interested in any new improvements
The native app. I didnt get a notification for it either but it's def a different verision then what I had before. Try searching for it in the market.
I think it may be for 2.2 only.

I'm running Cog Beta 5.5. Which is 2.2.
But, it looks like it is completely separate than the YouTube app which comes pre installed on the captivate. Just downloaded, and so far I like it.
Here's the Appbrain
EDIT: It also allows you to edit the SafeSearch controls. Which I had heard previously Samsung (or ATT) disabled.

Can anyone else confirm this? I never got a backup so I don't want to upgrade unless this is true.

It definitely does let you edit the safe-search controls. First thing I did was turn them off
still cant watch a lot of music videos (thanks to VEVO) and a bunch of popular videos (worst dj ever) are still not viewable or searchable.
Have to use the regular Youtube site and use flash for those videos.
It clearly states on the AppBrain page that it is for 2.2 and up, so no dice for us Eclair users.

new and improved....
yeah,i downloaded this yesterday and i really like this version- the interface looks much better dark and i like that i have access to my channel when away from my computer...found out about the new youtube app through android central-no notification was sent to me since the captivate doesn't officially have 2.2?(i have the leaked 2.2 )
thanks for the headsup!!
New app looks awesome Thanks for the find.
Can someone please go to the new YouTube app (if you have it) go to settings and see what the application version is, please?
2.0.26

Really liking the new update. Again this is for 2.2 only, it didn't show up as an update to my current youtube app, but it did replace it once I downloaded and installed it.
Hopefully Google continues to add more and more of the stock apps to the market... one way to combat the horrors of Sense, TouchWiz, etc.

Ported to 2.1

Definitely an improvement but still can't comment from within the app which I hope they implement

[Q] New Android Marketplace?

So I got my NS today to replace my N1 and I thought it would have the new marketplace on it. It looks to be the same one as before. Any idea on how to update it?
You could try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=869245
I don't have a NS so I wouldn't know if it works or not but it works on my Vibrant + other devices on 2.2.
I was wondering the same thing but i'm not in a hurry to get it updated. Im going to wait for it to be pushed to mine. Does the new 15 minute refund window apply only to the new market?
I tried to update today but it came in all un even around the categories tabs. So I'm just gonna wait. I mean its not like I'm dying to have the update.

for those with the Nexus S & the old Market app, does your 3rd tab on the home page show "T-Mobile" rather than "Downloads"?

Mine does. I really don't like it. Downloads button was rather useful. 2 clicks and you could see if you had any apps that needed updating. Now you have to press menu to access your downloads. I know, I know, it takes one second to do that. It's just rather annoying.
There is a download app in app drawer thats says downloads now so maybe thats why

Thats for downloads from the browser. Not the market.
Oh my bad.
You can always hit the menu key and then downloads
My Epic's just updated, so yours may soon as well
Fyi I think Android can tell your network operator now. I was setting up my NS over wifi and had my sim in my g2 for calls. At that time the NS said downloads on the right tab. After I finished and put my sim into the NS the market started displaying T-Mobile on the right tab. It makes me think that the G2 did have a vanilla android on it...well sort of. Lol

Swype Beta is open again...

it is. im using it now
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
I just installed it too...seems Much better than my last version...which strangley expired today..i wonder if that's because the new beta just came out at the same time? Anyway, I'm happy and its working great..
Thanks for the heads up. I've been using the pirated 2.15, but it will be nice to be using an official release for once so I'll know when the newest release is out.

I signed up for the site to receive the beta, but I still have not gotten the email to download it. I've also tried resending the link and their server never sends out an email to me. Niiiccee....
I signed up but I am unable to download the installer, keep getting download unsuccessful. Anyone able to get it to install successfully?

This is gonna sound so obvious, and not to insult your intelligence, but have you looked in your spam folder?
I was able to download it successfully on two devices, no problem.
now that I actually try to get swype the official way its not letting me. Keeps saying "Sorry! Thus us not an android device." Anyone else getting this on cm6?

will this automatically work on the aria?
Is there any way to get the apk from this newest release? I signed up for the beta and as soon as I did, I got a POP up saying my current version of swype had expired. And I can't do it the legit way since ATT blocks installs that are separate from the market. HELP!

Difficult in what way? I think its probably the easiest soft keyboard to use. I guess if you're not used to a qwerty keyboard then it does take some time to get used to where the keys are as swyping with efficiency does require you to have the letters locations committed to memory.

Exactly, it's hard to see as you're "swype-ing". I view this as just a novelty . After a little while it gets fun lol.

That's probably the reason people view it as a novelty. It becomes second nature after a while. I've gotten to the point now where I don't even have to look for individual letters on the keyboard as I'm swyping. I just need to view the keyboard as a whole and its just burned into my memory where I need to swype to get the letters. it just takes a little time, but once your get it down its by far the fastest way to type without having an actual physical keyboard.

Find Phone Question

Hi helpful people of XDA.
I've received my One and I'd very much like to keep it in my possession. Just wondering if there's a find my iPhone style app available for it? Or if its in settings somewhere?
Edit - Also while I'm here, the phone doesn't seem to distinguish between H and H+ it's annoying, is there any chance of being able to see the difference?
Thanks.

Plan B is awesome. You can install that one after you lost it via play.google.com
Otherwise you can use prey or any other app .. there are tons
Theres also Wheres my Droid
But as said, most of these "finding" apps you can install online through your google account and then track down your phone
So many apps I wasn't aware of!
Thanks chaps.

[Q] Data Usage Icon Won't Go Away ***HELP***

So I've been loving this device so far but the only complaint I have is that every time my phone needs to use mobile data, receive or place a phone call, or send or receive a text message, the "Data usage is running" icon will appear for literally less than a split second and it's annoying the hell out of me. I've managed to record a slow motion video on my S4 in order to capture a screen shot of the icon appearing in my notification bar which I've attached below. It looks like I'm able to stop it from constantly appearing but the darn thing isn't around long enough for me to click on it...ANY help? I have tried to go into my application manager and disable it that way but no dice. Also, not rooted and completely stock.
The text on the icon reads "Data usage is running - Touch for more information or to stop ...."
If you go to settings, wireless & networks, data usage. Do you have a checkmark next to alert me about data usage. Is yes, remove it.
Sent from my lair.
Yeah, unfortuantely I had already tried that and it didn't work... Have you experienced the same issue? It's gotten to the point where I'll deliberately send my device a text message from another phone and try to tap the icon in my pull down but it just disappears so damn quick. I know it isn't really that big of a deal but I'm sure I can't be the only one on here who nit picks their phone.

I didn't have that issue, even when my phone wasn't rooted. Is your phone rooted? If so what rom is it running?
Sent from my lair.
Nope, totally stock. I've debated taking it in to Sprint but I know all they'll do is perform a soft reset (which I've done) and hand me back the phone.
Just got off the phone with HTC, That was essentially useless. Gonna take it in to Sprint tomorrow and cross my fingers for something good.

Yes, this is strange. If you are still within 14, sprint will exchange without any problems. Just make sure to use words factory defect.

I don't mean to resurrect this thread, but I am experiencing the same behavior. It is on my Verizon M8. I was thinking about used Xposed to block the notification, but I'd rather determine the root cause and disable it there instead. Any reports on your findings?
Alas, no. I've just learned to live with it...

I am not sure as well. Like I said, I am rooted so for now I am just using an Xposed module to block the notification. It works great.
Think you could give a short tutorial? I'll probably root tomorrow. I just can't stand it anymore.

Yes, I am at work currently. I will give you a quick guide tonight when I get home.
After installing the Xposed framework, I installed the Notify Clean Module.

After that is running and ready, you need to trigger the notification so it can log it. Once that is done it will be listed as below.

Freezing the app appeared to have negative affects on my data connection. WIll keep trying some other things to see if we can actually fix the issue and not just hide it.

I'm curious if we use a different app rather than hangouts to send the SMS if it will go away.

I suspect it would as it happens with more than just messaging. Also happens when ending a call.
