Messaging doesn't fully work in an Android browser. You might get a real-time notification badge, but my experience is 50/50. There is also an issue that if you do a manual refresh, you still might not get the new message notification. I imagine that there isn't a rush to fix these issues either.

I use Chrome on my Android phone. I haven't experienced any problems with messaging.

I don't want audible notifications. I'll get my messages the next time I check Facebook.

This might not be ideal for everyone but it works for me.
