Some apps missing from Permission Monitor. I can't monitor Whatsapp or Facebook. - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hi folks,
Whatsapp, Viber and Facebook Messenger are missing from my Apps Permission Monitor section. They're not on the list.
Neither is my Reddit app but I'm not super worried about that.
Any idea why my messaging apps aren't appearing on the list? It's a bit suspicious.
Thanks

Facebook App

Hi all,
I download Facebook on windows market.
But when i use it, i dont have any notifications. Does anyone knows if there is something to activate notify message ?
thx a lot
I also have noticed this problem with the Hd2 facebook app, and notice a ton of info/notifications when i log in with my pc that i do not see on my HD2...would be a massively helpful tweak if htc/facebook would get on it!
Also noticed the lack of a proper facebook chat client that is done so well on the Iphone facebook app... ah man!
The facebook app for windows sucks. really needs a massive improvement
just use http://touch.facebook.com for the time being

No Messenger notifications?

Hi,
I have no idea why, but I don't get any push notifications from Facebook Messenger. There is no sound, no vibraitions, nothing in notications. And yet, in the app itself I see that someone wrote to me.
Symptoms:
No notifactions
No chatheads
Full Facebook app itself does notifactions: it tells me about new friends, birthdays etc. Also: when I open a new conversation via Facebook app, it creates that chathead bubble. And with that pinned to my screen I can get atleast some sounds.
When I manage apps, under Messenger, I usually have two services: ChatHeadService and MqttPushService (sometimes also EventService and
I still get notifications from other apps, like SMS, Facebook itself, Google Play etc.
What I did:
I cleared all the cache and app data for Facebook and Messenger (multiple times!)
I reinstalled both Facebook and Messenger
I restarted my phone and did Wipe Cache via Recovery.
I double checked if I have notifications enabled both in my Messenger app and in Application Settings
I have enabled synchronization.
Nothing worked. And yes, until... I have no idea what, everything worked just great.
I'm using Galaxy S4 i9505 with I9505XXUEMJ7. And Messenger/Facebook are the newest, freshly installed versions from the market.
Do you have ANY idea how to fix my problem? Maybe there is some KNOX block or whatever that I'm not aware of?
Out of the Blue, the exact same symptoms. Everything was working fine until a few weeks ago. Suddenly, facebook messenger gives me no notifications at all.
What I tried more was installing older facebook and messenger versions without any luck!
My device is Galaxy S4 i9505 with XXUFNB9 no root
My problem was on Facebook side.
Try creating totally new account and log in with it into your Phone. Check if you recieve notifications.
If yes, go to Facebook settings and delete all (ALL) apps that you have connected. From what I gathered the problem was in one of the apps that probably was stealing all the attention.
Yeap! I disabled all apps from Facebook settings and... blink! Notifications! Don't know which app did the trick but don't really mind. Thank you for your time!! :laugh:

[Q] Facebook Contacts and Third Party SMS Apps

I got a GS5 yesterday, and I love it! But I have one issue. I'm not a fan of the stock messaging app. I tried Evolve, Chomp, Handcent, Go SMS, and Hello SMS. My issue with every single one of these apps is that my Facebook contacts do not show in them. I've gone through all the settings I could think of and couldn't find a solution for this. My 10 google contacts show in there, but almost ALL of my phone numbers come from Facebook. I'm new to Android, so if this is a simple fix, I'm sorry. My facebook contacts work just fine in the stock messaging app, and show up in my phonebook, but not in any third party apps. Halp!

A simple Google search suggests that it's a Facebook issue. Facebook allows your phone or a site like sync.me to access your FB contact info. But doesn't allow any third party apps to do so.
The Handcent FAQ explains a workaround to sync your FB stuff with their app -

Trash Facebook & Messenger or not?

I know that Facebook for Android isn't the best app from Google play, but I have a very active Facebook page and I need to recieve notifications all the time. The problem is, Facebook and messenger take up 0.5gb of ram just for being idle and I really don't like that.
I have tried using metal for Facebook and Twitter but it seems like I can't recieve any notifications - I have the auto refresh set to 5 mins but nothing happens.
Do you think Facebook and messenger on s7 is a problem like on other Android phones and I need to find an alternative or I should just keep them there if I need them?
I've had many issues with facebook app and finally after draining my battery 60% over night I uninstalled it.
mybe you have battery saver options set to disable facebook.
I configured my fb account to send me mails if there are some messages or events.

Facebook and messenger eat a lot of resources in some users, including me. So, you can use MaterialF-book. little app with little ram usage

Bug where notifications resend after I clear them

Title says it, happens a lot for Facebook, Gmail, and other main apps. Anyone know what the issue is and a resolution?
