I don't get Facebook app notifications (phone vibrate and ring)?

For whatever reasons, my phone doesn't vibrate or notify me at all whenever someone comments on a post, writes on my Timeline, etc. It used to, though.
1. When I go to settings on the app, the Notifications and Vibrate options are clearly selected (it says Active and Vibrate on incoming notif.). All the options (Wall posts, messages, etc.) are all checked off.
2.When I go to Account Settings (the side bar), I go to Notifications, and I've tried the mobile push settings. However, every time I check something off (mentions you in a comment, tags you, etc.), it'll kind of blip. It'll check, then save itself, but the check is gone after it saves.

What else can I do?

I don't really know what's pertinent information for this.
This is the app version 5.0.0.26.31
It's an LG P769 on Android version 4.1.2

(Also, I apologize if this is in the wrong forum.)

Do you mean they have the check mark to say they are active? Because they should be.

Go to your main phone system settings app & applications. Scroll down the All tab until you get to the facebook app & select it. Make sure you have "Show Notifications" has a check mark.
