Messaging "can't connect to chat"

Same problem persists 2-3 days already.
And to people who regrets buying WP> Why did you bought it anyways ? WP platform is more of a huge open beta test than OS which is ready to pleasure all your wishes, deal with it. It will take months to get this OS working properly.
 
I bought it for the facebook intergration. Its the only way i would use Facebook chat. Now i an connecting my iPod to my phones hot spot to use it. If they have it fixed I'll stick with win phones.

I got it because the store was selling a WP really cheap, off contract. The hardware is good, just the software is a problem.
 
Re: facebook chat not working

I understand that **** happens, especially since messaging is merging or has merged with Skype, but I'm on day 5 or 6 right now. For Christ sake Microsoft, at least acknowledge the problem and then turn your head around and start mumbling to all of us , at least I could say we have effectively started communicating

WPers start bugging Microsoft on their fb,TW and g+ account about this issue
 
guys i have the same problem i cant see who online. guys dont what i did but i fix mine. just try message me if it work with you guys. i just set my chat status to off line i think a day or something. just make it a long offline chat status. then i just make it available just now it was fix.
 
it's not working for a few others but working for most.
first of all just to be 100% sure, relink your facebook to your outlook. if it's still a problem it will probably be another annoying waiting game.

check out whether your battery saver mode is on or off, bcoz when battery saver mode is on you have to switch on chat manually
 
this problem started happening to me last Thursday out of the blue. tried all the fixes but no go. I now can only use fb chat through the facebook app which is less than convenient. anyone aware of any new fixes or work arounds that I may have missed?
 
Had this problem since I got the phone last week. It can sporadically connect, but very rarely and when connected not all messages come through. New Zealand here.

I had the same problem for awhile. I just went to my contacts setting and it said I to put in my fb pw again. After that, my chat service works again from the messaging window. Hope it helps.
 
I have a Lumia 920 and it doesn't work on mine...my sone has a Lumia 720 and it works fine........ mine did work for about one day a week or so back and has stopped again.....
:angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry:
 
All my contacts etc and pictures come through from facebook and the ME tile updates with my FB stuff and notifications.....it's just the Chat that has topped agian and won't start up...
 
when your battery is low it doesn't connect. And this would be before battery saver kicks in.

However there was a time when the messaging system was all fubared....you go to the messaging hub and it just reconnects online for you (when it should be always on). but when you lock the phone it just disconnects you so when you go back to the messaging hub it reconnects again... That doesn't seem to happen anymore though.
 
I can't seem to get confirmation code for messenger on my Lumia 920. I have been trying all day... And without it, I cannot log in. Does anyone have any idea on how to solve this problem?
