canucks_dynasty Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Crappy DriveSafe.ly Pro $19.99 value offered as a free gift. Doesn't do BBM. Runs in the background even when I exit the program. Thus drains the battery. I unistalled it. Come on RIM...do better than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

:D Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Does anyone else's Facebook app not give up on a notifying icon on the homescreen. There is nothing new, why is this icon not going away I have clicked everything, notifications, friend requests, groups, etc... and the icon won't disappear.

So you'll get a FB notification and it will show the 'new notification' icon on the home screen? Then you'll read the meassage or what have you and then it shows the FB 'notification' (not new) icon on the home screen after that, and that doesn't go away. Right?

mdehaan Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Correct, I've scoured my mobile facebook and nothing is getting rid of it. I had the same problem and hated it. What you have to do when you open a message is let it load 100%. If you don't open it all the way, it's like the app thinks it hasn't been opened. You will need to go back a ways and open a few because you probably don't know which messages are 'not yet opened'. Obviously to prevent this in the future, let all messages load all the way before exting.. Make sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things like one-word replies, I see and then close right away... that's what did me in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you don't need to go all the way back and re-open all your messages. If the notification is still there after you opened the message just restart your phone by taking out the battery and it will disappear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdehaan Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Where does it say re-open all your messages? Pulling the battery every time you have a icon that doesn't go away would be a ROYAL pain in the arse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing new, why is this icon not going away I have clicked everything, notifications, friend requests, groups, etc... and the icon won't disappear. Try this tip out. Worked for me - so glad I finally got rid of the FB notifications: Crackberry So all of a sudden your BlackBerry is being bombarded with Facebook notifications like "so and so has posted a link" or "so and so updated their status". You login and make sure all your notifications are turned off yet they still keep coming! I pulled my 9930 off the charger at 6:30 am and by noon, my battery was down to 32% all in thanks to my Facebook app going off every two or three minutes with these silly notifications. After wracking my brain trying to figure out why I was still receiving them when all the settings were set to off, I do what we all should do when faced with a BlackBerry problem...I logged on to CrackBerry and went straight to the forums. The amount of knowledge all of us can gain from each other is astounding. Within two minutes, I had searched, found my answer & solved the problem all thanks to this forum. Here's how to solve the issue: Login to Facebook (on your pc) Find and select your "Close Friends" group on the left hand side In the top right hand corner, select notifications, then off or on Ta-da! Problem solved. Thanks again to all of you in the forum who helped those of us who just couldn't figure it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b3. Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Picked up a Bold 9900 two days ago, and liking it so far. Missing the visual eye candy of the iPhone apps, but that's nothing major. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre's_Monster Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Quick question. I don't have a data plan, but I have wi-fi at my house. So can I check my hotmail, and send e-mails from my wi-fi for free? Or am I gonna get charged for that? I know you can get e-mails sent to your phone, but I don't have that so that's why I'm asking. Anyone know? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trek Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 If you are surfing to hotmail through the browser then yes, it's free. If you wanted mail to come through the Messaging application on the phone, you'll need at least a BIS (Blackberry Internet Service) plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre's_Monster Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Yea, I just check it through the browser. Alright, I should be alright then lol. Thanks, trek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Bang Boogie Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 RIM released another gift app: Shazam. It's pretty cool. You can use it to identify songs you hear on the radio or anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
