I just recently received a work phone (BlackBerry Torch) and I downloaded the Facebook app. Ever since, I've noticed that the Facebook notifications aren't coming thru on my personal phone (BlackBerry Storm 2) like they are on my business one.
Can anyone help me out here?

If you're logged into the same facebook account, my guess is that Facebook automatically sends updates to whichever phone logged in last (i.e., the work phone). Maybe try logging off with that phone when not using it and see if notifications come back to the other phone. Or, at worst, just log back in the old phone and see if notifications start going to it over the work phone.

maybe try checking out the settings for your facebook app.

And what exactly would I be looking for / under where?

This was my thought - Facebook might only send updates to one phone - but I can't imagine this to be true. I can think of several reasons why you would want notifications to be sent to both phones.

The Facebook app is garbage, I'm with Nate.
And if you want notifications, just have your settings so that you receive an email or text.

He's talking about notifications, not status updates.

I used to get notifications when I got a message but it hasn't worked in months. I don't care enough to do anything about it.

Recently the Facebook app on my android phone keeps telling me I have a new message, but when I check, I don't.
Maybe I should buy a Mac. LOL AMIRITE GUYS.

I thought getting Facebook notifications were cool for about a month after I got my iPhone, then it became a battery draining annoyance. I've turned off all notifications.

Is the Facebook App garbage? Sure it is. But I want the notifications.

I want the notifications because I want to stay in contact with my Friends. If they write on my wall, send me a message, I want to know so that if it is a pressing matter, I can reply instantly.
